akonucheinfo: Mgt science students of the school, sad its normal that I should pick any course that when its time for post ume I will choose the course in ma mind. What do u think is it normal?
It's your choice, but i think it's better to be safe than sorry. You can choose the same university with two different courses but just make sure your subject combinations are correct.

Choose another course that supports your subject combination, or better still choose another University.

EducationRe: Federal University Of Agriculture, Abeokuta Aka FUNAAB 2013/2014 Admissions by barackohandso(m): 3:39pm On May 08, 2013
Osumare2013: Stop merigorounding. Funaab got nothng to do with change of course/institution. It's not a contributing factor in whatsoever level.

HOW TO CALCULATE YOUR COMPOSITE

Ur Jamb score carries 50%, hence ur jamb score is divided by 8.

Ur O level carries 20%: It is calculated using the 5 core subjects.
A1-6points
B2-5
B3-4
C4-3
C5-2
C6-1
The total points is then mutiplied by 2/3.

Ur Post utme score is multiplied by 0.3

Example: Bayo had 202 in Jamb and his O level goes thus. Mth-B3, chm-C4, bio-B2, eng-C5, phy-C6, eco-B3, geo-A1 and had 58% in the post utme. To calculate his composite, this' how it's done.

Jamb score divided by 8 i.e 202/8=25.25

For the O level, only 5 subjects (mth, eng, chm, bio, and phy) are needed.
There he has
mth-b3-4points
Eng-C5-2point
Chm-C4-3points
Bio-B2-5points
Phy-C6-1point
Total gross points for O level= 4+2+3+5+1=15. This score is then multiplied by 2/3 i.e 15 x 2/3=10.

His post utme score is multiplied by 0.3 I.e 58 x 0.3=17.4

Therefore, Bayo's composite is the sum of these 3 scores I.e jamb+O'level+post utme. That is 25.25+10+17.4=52.65

Hence, Bayo's composite is 52.65

Any questionshuh
lol @ merrygorounding, i just wanna know the facts. Thanks though. Having in mind how important it is for my composite score to be high, what score range should i target for courses like Chemistry and Mathematics, given the fact that FUNAAB doesn't release official cut-offs for their courses?

Do you also have any idea when the change of institution form will be out?
EducationRe: Federal University Of Agriculture, Abeokuta Aka FUNAAB 2013/2014 Admissions by barackohandso(m): 9:48am On May 07, 2013
Osumare2013: Ur name is not with Funaab yet. As at now, funaab doesn't know those who picked dem and those who didn't. Not until Jamb forwards d list of candidated dat applied for funaab to dem. And dat'll happen only after jamb of institution/course has closed.
And d list is submitted in a single part, not discriminating those dat picked funaab frm registration tym and those that changed to funaab after jamb results.

The summary of my story is, YES funaab accepts change of institution.
The utme combination for maths is eng,phy.mth,chm while dat of chemistry is eng,chm, phy, mth or bio. And d waec combination of both course is mth,eng,phy,chm,bio.
Thanks. Please, can you explain exactly how the JAMB and WAEC scores are calculated, and does FUNAAB accept the same score for those who chose to change their institution with those who chose them in the first place?

Please anyone, do Funaab accept change of institution, is chemistry a competitive course there, and what are the jamb subject combination for chemistry and mathematics?

So many reasons people do it.
Health8 Ways To Cure A Hangover by barackohandso(op): 10:16pm On Jan 01, 2013
Everyone has a go-to hangover remedy—burnt toast, greasy food, a Bloody Mary. I even know a guy who swears by the harrowing concoction called “The Bull’s Eye,” raw egg mixed into a glass of OJ. I'll pass. While the placebo effect is powerful, there are better ways to silence the house DJ playing in your skull—ways that actually work.
First, understand that a hangover is caused by more than dehydration—though it does play a large role. Your body metabolizes alcohol into acetaldehyde, which is toxic to brain cells, says Robert Swift, M.D., Ph.D., a professor at BrownUniversity’s Center for Alcohol and Addiction Studies. Another byproduct of booze breakdownis adenosine, a neurochemical that dilates blood vessels in the brain and causes a splitting headache. Pile on low blood sugar, a loss of electrolytes, stomach irritation, and poor-quality sleep, and it’s no wonder you feel like feel like you’re the last survivor of a Tarantino movie. (Hurting from more than a hangover?
Don’t feel too shabby? You could be lucky; studies suggest that 25 to 30 percent of people are virtually immune to hangovers. That, or you might still be buzzed. It takes a full 8 to 11 hours for your blood alcohol content (BAC) to hit zeroafter you reach the amount of booze necessary to trigger a hangover. If you raged until lastcall last night, take precautions now—even if you feel fine.
Follow these research-proven tips to fend off your nausea, pounding head, and general hatred of life.

1. Don't Gulp Gallons:
You’ve heard that dehydration is a major hangover cause, and it’s true. The problem: Too much water will only stretch out an already-irritated stomach, leading to (even more) nausea or vomiting. Instead, gulp 8 ounces of waterevery hour you’re awake after drinking, Dr. Swift recommends.

2. Pop the Right Painkiller:
That’d be ibuprofen. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) can risk liver damage after a night of drinking. Because both acetaminophen and alcohol are metabolized by the liver, boozing disrupts your liver from fully breaking down the toxins in the pain pills, Dr. Swift says. And aspirin can upset your stomach.

3. Grab Gatorade
After a few cups of water, switch to a sports drink. “The extra salt helps your body absorb the fluids more quickly,”Dr. Swift says.
JUMPSTART YOUR DAY!

4. Brew Tea—But Don’t Drink It
Need to look presentable today? Steep black, chamomile, or green tea bags in boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes. After you let them cool, lie down and place a bag over each eye for 5 to 15 minutes. The tannins in the tea constrict blood vessels, pulling the skin taught to battle puffiness.

5. Eat Oatmeal for Breakfast ...
When researchers gave breakfasts to hungover college students, those who ate slowly digestible carbohydrates, like oatmeal, performed better on mood and memory tests than subjects who chose simple sugars. To add protein and digestion-slowing fiber, stir a tablespoon of crunchy peanut butter into plain instant oats.

6.... With a Side of Eggs
The amino acid cysteine might help your liver recover from the stress of breaking down alcohol. Egg yolks, yogurt, and poultry are good sources.

7. Meet with Joe
Caffeinated coffee will increase your alertness and ease the dilated vessels in your brain, says Frederick Freitag, D.O., medical director of the Comprehensive Headache Center for Baylor Health Care System in Dallas. Just limit it to one or two cups to avoid caffeine’s potentially dehydrating effects.

8. Get Busy
Distraction—whether that’s Rock Band, taking down holiday decorations, or working out—will take your mind off the hangover. It won’t solve anything, but you’ll a tleast feel better in the moment.
