nicole1027:

they are using all your results not only cusas, and it all comes down to how many people are applying for that course

Ok. Seun here told me that my course, microbiology, isn't that competitive. So assuming I got a 40, I might be safe right?

lavatoz:

Wait...so your trying to say is that ppl who get lesser scores than say 40 in the cusas, you might not get your preferred course? What of JAMB and WAEC can't they play a role in keeping you at your preferred course? Let me understand, please?

jamb and Waec cant really play a role. because alot of people passed jamb this year.. and alot of people are using awaiting results.. besides, cusas is the exam the school set by its self. so it is very important.


and getting your preferred course depends on how many people applied for the course. . and how many people applied for you second and third choices.

take me for example, I chose architecture as my first choice and building as a second choice.
only 50 people out of 300 people who applied for it entered.. obviously, alot of people got higher jamb and cusas scores than I did.? only 3 people applied for building .. so building was the obvious next choice for me.


my friend who chose architecture picked computer science as his second choice. he got higher than me in jamb but had a 24 in cusas.. he got computer science even though about the same number of people applied for computer science.. Which means he got higher scores than those who applied for comp science but nobody in architecture.. besides, about 100 people were admitted for comp science... so it also depends on the space available in the courses u have chosen..

Dont be too dependent on the JAMB statistics because it is not 100% accurate. It was last updated in Feb 2015, I know people that changed to Covenant University some weeks ago, their data has not reflected in the JAMB table. Secondly there are some people that did not choose Covenant in JAMB that wrote CUSAT today, if they score very high marks they might compete with people with lower marks that chose CU. I'm really scared now!

Finally, CU did well for giving us snacks during the exams, I really needed it.

SeunA:
you can still gain admission with that jamb score tho....Policy and strategic studies isn't a competitive programme in CU attalz a minimum of 8 apply for d programme each year so chillax!

Thanks o! My 1st choice was PSS, 2nd choice: Mass Comm, 3rd choice: English and 4th choice: Demography and Social Statistics. With people like misslag scoring so high in CUSAT and UME, I doubt Mass Comm. will even be an option for me. I will be happy with PSS.

this is actually true.. Covenant University Admits those That didn't choose CU in jamb sha, A lot of them were Admitted Last year In First Batch, Making Admissions More Competitive. *Sigh*

lavatoz:

Hi dear, how was your cusas. What areas did u c in math? How was ur english too? And general paper and score overall?

we bless God, I had 36 in it nd am applying for accounting, my math der was arithmetic progression, bearing, mean: the word problem kind, angle of elevation, don't bother bringing a calq cus it's not useful. The questions are logical
