The UTME form will soon be out, when students will be faced with problem of course, institution, and subject combination to choose.
The essence of this write-up is to enlighten students on what to do. The following are the guidelines to follow;
1. Course: Selection of course is very vital and it's something that must be done out of interest, your best subjects are also to be considered while choosing a course as these are what you will major in while in school.
E-brochure of each faculty is attached, choose the one that correlates with your department and browse through it for your desired course, it is worthy of note that there are multiplicity of courses you never heard of that is in the brochure.
Except you are very good as in brilliant, the more popular the course, the slimmer your chances of being admitted , it's evident that most students are not always given the course they want in Nigerian universities as a result of too many applicants with the same course of choice.
Also for now, department of criminology have been suspended in UNILORIN.
Below are the list of faculties in PDF format, download and go through it, then make your choice.
AGRICULTURE
ART
EDUCATION
ENGINEERING
LAW
MEDICAL
SCIENCES
SOCIAL SCIENCES
ADMINISTRATION
2. University/ institution to choose: In the column where your desired course is, there are list of universities that offer the course you chose.
Make your choice and I will advise you not to choose two federal universities as most and more preferred universities e.g O.A.U and UniIbadan as most of these universities don't consider students that choose them as second choice.
Below is a file that contains the list of universities and degree awarding institutions in Nigeria.
Degree awarding institutions are mostly monotechnic as in colleges of education affiliated to universities and as such offer degree programs. I will advise you to choose any of them under monotechnic.
Universities and other degree awarding institutions
3. Subjects combination: Also, in the next column to the list of university, there are subjects (3) that each university expect you to write in UTME and also in WAEC, go through it and make sure you don't make mistake of wrong subject combination.
English language is the only general subject in JAMB.
4. Form purchase: The directive from the new registrar of JAMB is that, all transactions will be cashless, so you will be buying your form with a debit card (ATM), before you proceed for registration at the CBT centre, purchase the form from the comfort of your home or anywhere yourself or with anyone you trust. Never handover the debit card to anyone or reveal the pin,wherever and whenever required, enter it yourself and ensure the instructor look away. This is to avoid stories that touch the heart.

Good day all,

One of the greatest problem with most students when writing their UTME is the lack of exposure of the Computer Based Test (CBT) methods recently deployed by JAMB for their examinations. Even the bright students, usually fidget and run short of ideas when been exposed to the CBT conditions for the first time because they are faced with the difficult task of mastering the interface real time, manage the time (with the inherent pressure from the countdown timer) and still answer all the questions as accurate as possible in their system. Now, this is a lot for the student to handle simultaneously. These challenges can be reduced by giving the student the privilege of practicing with a standard CBT software (TestDriller UTME 2017) recommended for JAMB so as to reduce the tension and workload for the student in the examination hall.

These and many more are what the TestDriller UTME 2017 provides for the students. TestDriller UTME 2017 Software contains the following features:

- A standard CBT interface with bank of past questions for all UTME subjects for the past 16 years. This could be seen in the PRACTICE EXAM section, where the student can write exams in three modes (Practice, Study & Mock Mode).It also gives you the leverage to study by topics of interest. You can also write exams on multiple subjects at a time using the same interface while navigating through them.

-An educational game session called VOCABO. VOCABO is a synonym/antonym game that helps the student to relax while learning extensively with adequate mastery of words thereby increasing their vocabulary at their leisure

-A standalone package called MATHSOLVER that helps the students to solve mathematical questions with step-by-step explanations.

- A robust ENGLISH KIT that contains 9 sections which includes standard dictionary, over 200 common errors in English Language with explanation from A-Z, Phrasal Verbs and Explanations A-Z, Figures of Speech and Explanations from A-Z, idomatic Expressions A-Z and so on.

- An intelligent guide on how to efficiently solve mathematical problems at a lesser time and higher speed through the MATHS TIPS section with over 100 outline covered

- A comprehensive package on CBT in the "COLLECTIONS" section with all you need to know about CBT covered. This includes the Dos and Donts of CBT, features of CBT, Advantages of CBT over Paper Based Test and things to do during a computer based test (CBT). It also covered some success quotes and success poems to keep you motivated

- Finally, the TestDriller UTME contains the recommended text for JAMB in Literature for 2016 which is "THE LAST DAYS AT FORCADOS" and even questions and explanations for each chapter.
