Hitherto, each institution used to conduct entrance examinations in line with their autonomous status. This process was called concessional admission. It was in 1978 that the Federal Government of Nigeria established the Joint Admissions Matriculation Board (JAMB) to harmonize admissions into tertiary institutions in Nigeria. This paper undertook a historical evaluation of JAMB’s efficiency in the conduct of entrance examinations in Nigeria, 1978-2019. Historical descriptive design was adopted. Fifteen staff, applicants and students were sampled from fifteen tertiary institutions and their host communities in South Western geo-political zone of Nigeria. A structured questionnaire titled “Questionnaire on Historical Evaluation of JAMB Efficiency in the Conduct of Entrance Examinations in Nigeria” (QHEJECEEN) was used. The data obtained were analyzed using ANOVA as the statistical tool. It was revealed that examination malpractices remain a formidable task before JAMB. In view of the foregoing, it was recommended that the nation should urgently come to the rescue of JAMB to curb examination malpractices.
