what about medicine .....and how sure are we that there is going to be a post utme

#sighs, quit quoting yourself.

Please ignore medicine, it's way more competitive than those courses you mentioned earlier.

Seems you don't want any post-utme exams...

Yh, as long as you do really well in
post-utme to support your high score.

Bro what's up. I scored 328 in jamb and I'm going for medicine and surgery. I actually wanted to change to Delsu cus I was scared of Uniben exam and cut off but I don't want to change anymore. With my jamb score what should I target in PUME in order to get admitted. Thanks

Jeez! Niggur, with 328 and you're still scared? Fućk that! You're so good to go. A post utme score of 70 and above should land you your dream course. Don't relent mahn...

I scored 251 in my jamb, I'm going in for medicine and surgery pls what's your advice and my expected performance score in putme

Please try switch to another course cuz with 251 for medicine? It's a risky one. You will need a really high post-utme score to stand a chance for that course.

Thanks.. meaning I should probably opt for biochemistry then? or is there an even less competitive but meaningful course I could apply for?

also please concerning the change of course stuff, how does one go about it and I hope it doesnt reduces one's chances of getting admitted

Jamb will notify you guys when the COC form is out and it's procedures. As long as you do the change on time, you shouldn't have any issue concerning your admission chances.

Meaningful course? Hmm, what makes sense to me might be senseless to you and vice versa. So it all depends on your choice...

For health education the utme combination is English, one science subject and two social science subject

Yh, I just saw that applies to Uniben and some other few schools. Hope you're quite good in government cuz geography might be interchanged for it. All the best though.

Rumours has it that it's been shifted by 3weeks(meaning till around 23rd of April or so)

I guess Egineering already has a circular confirming that. Just waiting for a general circular from the school's PRO.

Deltayankeeboi:
OK thanks but does one need to necessarilly score exactly 280 and above to be considered for admission to study medicine in uniben?

No, lemme explain better for most of y'all.

Uniben admission process is done this way, (your jamb score is divided by 8 )+(your post-utme score divided by 2). Now when you add the result of these two, you gonna get an aggregate score which is what is used for admission consideration.

Now for the past few years, medicine aggregate have been around 74, 75...From this, you can make simple calculations for your jamb score & what to target for in post-utme.

Let's judge on an agg of 75. Your 280/8=35. You already have 35, what's left is 40 which for you to get that, you'll need score at least 80 in post-utme. I hope you grab what I'm saying...

so someone has to score like 350 to get medicine in uniben. 288 is not high enough for medicine? really. wow! okay. 278 for medicine and from delta state, how far can that go. I mean on a scale of 10, what are the chances of getting medicine in uniben with 278. and also please, do they make use of how good your waec result is

350? Not really. Medicine is the most sort after or second most sort after course with limited capacity.

I will even say your post utme carries a slightly higher weight on how far your chances than jamb. I've seen people going for medicine get getting 80%+ in post-utme.

Like you, 278 gives you 34.75 which means you need to really blast post-utme to stand a chance for the course. Coupled with other criterion i posted on the opening page, you can then decide if to still go for it or not.

Lastly, how strong your waec result is doesn't matter, just clear the necessary subjects and thats settled for that.

Jamb and their irregularities.

Its the Federal Government that can cancel it and I don't see that coming again since they've seen it was a failure.

Essentials1:
Yea, someone adviced me not to near UNIBEN so thats why i left it out, but i need your advice first, please

Not to near uniben cuz of your score? Hmm.

Oga you can do it if you really prepare well for post utme & you score high bcuz your jamb score ain't bad for BCH. That's a 30.75 you have already.

Also...your Abia state isn't under Uniben's catchment area but funny enough, those 3 schools you mentioned has Abia state under their catchment areas.

My advice is, if you are sure you can really do well in post-utme, no p but if you're skeptical, go for any of those schools.
