1. I have reviewed this report on Form N-CSR of the JPMorgan Bond Fund II (the
"Fund"), a series of J.P. Morgan Mutual Fund Select Group (the "Registrant");
2. Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a

misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;
3. Based on my knowledge, the financial statements and other information

4. The Registrant's other certifying officer(s) and I are responsible for
establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Rule 30a-3(c) under the Investment Company Act of 1940) for the Fund and have:
a) Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our supervision,
to ensure that material information relating to the Fund, including its
consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those
entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being
prepared;
b) Evaluated the effectiveness of the Fund's disclosure controls and
procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the
effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of a date
within 90 days prior to the filing date of this report based on such
evaluation; and
c) Disclosed in this report any change in the Fund's internal control over
financial reporting that occurred during the Fund's most recent fiscal
half-year (the Fund's second fiscal half-year in the case of an annual
report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, the Fund's internal control over financial reporting;
and
5. The Registrant's other certifying officer(s) and I have disclosed to the
Registrant's auditors and the audit committee of the Registrant's board of
directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):
a) All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or
operation of internal control over financial reporting which are
reasonably likely to adversely affect the Fund's ability to record,
process, summarize, and report financial information; and
b) Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other
employees who have a significant role in the Fund's internal control
over financial reporting.
