The board made this known in its Weekly Bulletin of the Office of the Registrar in Abuja.
JAMB said the change was due to the realization that April 16, earlier scheduled, was an Easter Saturday; a holy Saturday, celebrated by Christians to mark the end of the Lent period before Easter Sunday.
The board also noted that the date for the exercise had been affected also by the shift in date for the registration of the UTME and Direct Entry, which was earlier scheduled for February12, but later commenced on February19.
It, therefore urged all candidates who registered and would want to sit for the mock exercise to note the change of date and be prepared.
The 2022 registration commenced on Saturday, February 19, and would end on March 26.
