Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Are there restrictions on the subjects that can replace Physics subject for Pure and Industrial Chemistry?
Yes. Any subject used to replace Physics must be officially approved by JAMB for the Pure and Industrial Chemistry programme. Pure and Industrial Chemistry generally falls under the Faculty of Science, so acceptable replacement subjects usually come from this category. A typical option includes any core Science.
What steps must I follow to officially change Physics subject before the exam?
To change a subject:
Log in to your JAMB profile on the JAMB portal.
Select “UTME Subject Replacement”.
Choose the new subject (any core Science subject) you want to replace Physics with.
Confirm the change and print the updated registration slip.
Some changes may require visiting a JAMB CBT center, depending on your registration type.
Can I complete a subject replacement entirely online, or do I need to go to a CBT center?
Some subject replacements can be done online via your JAMB profile, but in most cases, especially if your change affects course requirements, you may need to visit a JAMB CBT center to confirm the change.
What common errors should I avoid when replacing a UTME Physics subject in JAMB?
Choosing a subject not approved for your course.

Are there specific deadlines I must meet to replace Physics subject on the JAMB portal?
Yes. JAMB usually sets a cut-off date for subject changes, typically a few weeks before the UTME exam. You cannot change Physics to any core Science subject after this deadline, so it’s important to act early.
Will changing a UTME subject affect my existing registration details or profile?
No. Changing Physics to any core Science only updates the UTME subjects. Your personal information, exam date, and registration details remain intact.
