Pavore9:What of people who cheated during the UME results? What of people who are rich enough to bribe their way into the institutions gate? What fundamentals are you talking about when some people where fortunate enough to attend the best secondary schools (in terms of knowledge impact) while the others went to schools where teachers are lackadaisical The truth is education is flawed in this part of the world and increasing or decreasing cutoffs won't change that except we adopt a new method to impact knowledge |

How did they even arrive at such a low score? So to get 120 ,you simply need to score 30% in your 4 subjects and you're good to go? That is really bad. I wonder what grades such students will have after their first year at school, most of them will be withdrawn for poor CGPA, that is a fact. |

godwinony: We're talking of changing the way things are run and you're here telling us about your Jamb score. Do you believe that a person can select the right answer in JAMB without actually knowing what the question is all about? No matter what playing field you're talking about, if a UK student is made to sit for this same JAMB, I doubt if he would score the 120. The way exams are set in this country is quite absurd and nothing but sheer madness. |

Giving admission based on 25% mark. What do these ppl planed doing to the already dying education standard. Then if 25% can give u admission, then 25% will also be able to graduate u. Nigeria Ntorrr. |

modsfucker:If you actually read through the replies and mentions you would've noticed that the jamb score illustration was to emphasize different rules for different folks. On the issue of exam being tough/hard or however you portray it, do you expect it to be any easier or straightforward considering the number of applicants jostling for limited spaces in the institution? It is same in every facet of life. The more competitive, the harder it is to attain. Serious people have been passing exams and will continue to. |

godwinony: Quota system is to make education available to the disadvantaged, similar to affirmative action for minorities in America. There are claims that Obama entered Harvard through affirmative action (I dont know how true it is). Quota system has its good and bad side, but, i understand how you feel though. 2 Likes |

godwinony: your comment is still ethnically motivated Let me ask you this questions. 1. Do you think if you ask a white man to sit for this same UTME exam he would score the 180 points? 2. BEtween those white people and us, who make better use of the education by putting it into practice? Note: I have studied in a flexible system where students have the liberty to chose a date they want to write their exams and all theories carry only 30% while practicals and continuous assessment carry 70. |

modsfucker:Ethnically motivated? When a department that required a 54% cut off mark actually admitted 4 northerners with scores ranging from 40-45% while a friend of mine with 52% wasn't given a look in that year.. Ethnically motivated? Not saying the truth is what is killing us in this country. You made mention of the white man and having studied in their "flexible" system. Now tell me this. Are the whites so overpopulated like us that their kids fall over themselves to apply for a few admission slots in their inadequate schools like us? Answer is no. They aren't overpopulated like us and their schools are adequate, therefore there is no need for them to sit for our "hard" utme which was made so in order to trim down applicants. |

godwinony: I believe Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa but certainly not the most populous in the world. India, for example, has a population of 1.324billion which is 7 times that of Nigeria. But Nigerians do go to that country for studies without any God-forsaken JAMB score and excel in their studies. India has a literacy level of 74.04% with all its population while Nigeria has only 59.6 %. Forget about North/South divide, talk about how every Nigerian will have access to quality education, I think that's the most important thing. The system would naturally weed out those that cannot cope and they would ultimately drop out not because they are incapable, but because they're better off with other things than school. Note: Majority of the famous people in the world are dropouts, including the owner of Nairaland, Seun. |

JAMB can not please the parents/guardians or the students by reducing the cut-off point. Note a dunce when forced to learn and eventually graduates by force may be hazardous to the society. Let our Students sit up after missing the admission criteria. Anything below normal (average) is abnormal. |

Gaining admission into high institution with a shabby mark of 120 out of 400 is too bad this will really corrupt the prestigious reputation for such institution. I did mine 4times and the least mark I had was 158.but the story change when I ask my self this question are the questions set from outer space? if yes are my colleagues not passing it? why is mine different? then I decided to fully prepare for it by reading and studying crazily. student should always learn to academically work harder whenever they are preparing for examination 1 Like |

Many will buy PUTME form, sit for the exam but b denied of admission. My advice for dos Dat scored below 180/200 is either to go for polytechnics or re -write Jamb |

120 marks is only for eligibility to sit for postume.what if those with low marks now score high in postume,atleast enough to secure admission into a particular course/department.during my time 2015,i was not qualified to write postume with 234 marks,its that painful.but i thank God it was lifted and i still gained admission into that same pharmacy.let them sit for postume and weed out those not qualified. |

to be sincere, the standard of nigeria education is falling day by day just like her currency. How can one dt score 30% (below F9 grade) in jamb come close 2 any of d university or polytechnic gate not to talk of writing the sch post exam. What the government should do to help in such case is to build more vocational schools so that those who school below 150 will be given option in the vocational area. |
