weezii:
I think this is the main information to be learnt.

It's simply translates to less money in the pockets of the universities and students who don't qualify gets to save their monies too unlike what is applicable before now.

no...not before now bro infact it's now worst or how can one explain how lasu charged 5k,delsu 5k, uniport 6500,oau 6850 from not only the candidates sent to them for consideration but also from every candidate that chose them and had 180 and above. perhaps they are using there last opportunity to make enough money.

Naijabams:

these institutions wont just listen. they are the ones complicating this whole thing. some are even still grading results and awarding screening scores even after jambs guidelines..i tire o

dayowunmi:
Yes in most cases sir, those who scored 290 are more intelligent than those who scored lower, it's obvious enough. There may be exceptions to the rule which may be due to distractions or unseriousness on the part of the 290 scorer or maybe the one who scored less than 290 didn't prepare well enough for jamb and now later buckled up after admission. But no way you will prove that someone with 250 is better than 290.

like u said bro there are exceptions.what if he is that exception plus for him to have chosen o.a.u knowing that he's from kaduna says alot. secondly, i have someone with 190 in jamb scoring 96 in unizik putme and was given medicine

dayowunmi:
Hmmm, they are not helping the guy at all. OAU insisting on 200 score to me is not essentially because they are wicked but if you can't score atleast 200 in both jamb and post jamb you simply most likely won't be able to cope academically in OAU. Talking from experience as a graduate of the school. This guy with 186 will have it rough in school when/if admitted.

so you think he wont cope because he had 186?what makes you so sure that he wouldn't have scored higher if there were putme or do you think people who 290 and above are more intelligent than those that scored lower

adebayour26:
They said d name was forwarded for consideration. Am quite sure OAU will not consider the candidate qualified for their admission
......
WATCH OUT!!!

no one is rejecting her, read the guidelines again. she can only be rejected if she has any deficiency in her o'level result. if non,then she's in or what reason will o.a.u give for rejecting her

jliusadura:
So, how can Nigeria develop when more qualified aspirants are denied admission because of the less qualified ones? Besides, all states now have universities unlike before when elds policy was formulated.

bros calm down,it has been like this since the outset.. and even with putme it was still the same. it has also affected me once but there's nothing we can do about it because even the universities are in support of it and they have been using this method all along but there's a fowl play.instead of admitting elds, they fill the spot up with candidates that pay for runs,that is why jamb is solely handling the process to see to it that the elds are also given priority

we shouldn't forget in a haste that jamb is using three criteria in posting candidates to these schools and the fact that kaduna has 5 institutions does not change the fact that it isn't an educationally less developed state. you and i know that the number of versities in a given state is not the criterion used to determine an ELDS. am of the opinion that since jamb is in charge of admission,any candidate who score 180 and above can be posted to any school for admission consideration since it's no more putme where cut off is set at 200. i have seen someone with 196 posted to unilag as well. it's 45% merit,35% catchment and 20% elds.it simply means that if there are 100 candidates for a particular course and 50 candidates have scores btw 250 and above .jamb will not admit the whole 50 because they have high have high score, it will only admit 45 and also choose candidates with lower scores perhaps even below 200 using catchment and elds.. so someone with 260 who does not get it on merit and not from catchment or elds does not mean one from elds but scored lower can't get it.

Angeldepedro:
That's not true, JAMB has already made made clear the official guidelines for admission without post utme, though i believe more names will still be posted. But the talk that JAMB is test running something is laughable, didn't your dad ask what it is they were test running by posting some names and leaving others behind, and no i don't think posting cost any money, it's just as good as uploading names on the internet in a specific school, this is not 1978 when JAMB used to deliver admission letters in your home address,so I don't think posting names via the internet cost money. Read below the guidelines given by the Minister of Education on 11/7/2016 again, though i believe the admission will be done in batches. Merit 45% catchment/locality 35% ELDS 20%

trust me bro people can imagine anything just to give themselves hope. this was how they spread that point system stuff btw how did this article get here in the first place

i read some comments and i become angry...this system was initiated before jamb started posting candidates because at that point the admission process was still vague.there shall be no cut off mark or why has eksu not release her own cutoff mark plus the process has to be uniform not some schools doing different things and others doing another. dont expect any cut off mark. i did screening at delsu and there was no screening scores given to anyone..the truth is if you have been posted by jamb and there's no deficiency in your 0'level results,go and start celebrating

faithyy:
I was given admission consideration by jamb to aau to study political science,with jamb score 221 bt went for screening on Monday and ma result is very low not up to 40%,since am nt up to 40,does that min I can't b admitted

brother go and prepare for sch..they aren't using that stuff. just formality, the fg has reiterated that schs are to admit only candidates sent to them by jamb and if they are to reject you, they must send you name back to jamb stating why you were denied and am sure they can't tell jamb it's because your screening result is poor besides jamb never told any school to attach score to screening...na oversabi dey worry them

like 5 of that point system topic made front page on that same day.i wonder why this info never reach front page.

STPEACE10:
don't be surprised that they will still misinterpret this guidelines, if you try to correct them they will tag you Mr ITK, that's their business though

i dey tell u bro.what surprised me was the way every website i visited paraded it. at a point i almost started doubting my stance o...

where are those that could not understand a simple admission sample model parading it as point system...but nairaland fall my hand sha. the mods in education section should have at least analyze that model rather than feeding us from sahara reporters who apparently posted their thoughts

Rilwon:
Funny enough, the mods are just placing those alleged calculation points on fp.. Like 5 of those threads are now on fp.

Lol.

Wizard second rule at work.

it surprises me how most people don't seem to understand this.. its so painful

from the image it was clearly seen that jamb faulted three of those five models... 1)screening of candidates before recommendation and provisional admission. 2)weighting of result grades using the point system as it put some candidate at a disadvantage 3)the amount charge. while jamb made no remark on the other two meaning they were ok i-e, 4)no exam conducted 5)verification of jamb results..now if you check the proposed model,you will notice that the parts above that were faulted by jamb were not included...here is the proposed model 1)screening of candidates shall be for those offered provisional admission only 2)no written examination to be conducted 3)verification of course requirements(o level and A level) it did not mention point system since it already faulted it. it said VERIFICATION because this is the part that got most people confused. 4)verification of jamb results

i am still at lost as to why some so called elite can't comprehend this simple model. jamb gave a case study using two university's model i-e the tawafa balewa and the IBB models. in the first picture below is a summary of the IBB model that has left so many confused.

kaysy:
And finally, the proposed model

thank you now dont you see that only the parts not faulted by jamb is in d prosposed model... screening of candidates b4 admission is not in it because it was faulted nd weighting of results is not here because it was faulted but d parts jamb said nothing like verification of jamb results nd no exam conducted appeared in the proposed model because they were not faulted..so you see bro...

kaysy:
Its always better to take your time and understand something first, then u're free to add your discretion (If any)

The first model advocated for a 5year life span of O'Level, you and i knows O'Level is an exam u write once and if u credit ur required subjects, u dont need to write again for life, hence this model cannot not work, i dnt need to be told it wont work before i know it. if i see a model that's likely to work out i'll know

listen to youself so you think weighting of results is what would work when jamb knows that waec is the most corupt exam in the country and those who wrote theirs at miracle centres would be an advantage..university of Ibadan knowing this had to stop using it as a model.. my brother as u clearly saw that weighting of results was faulted by jamb..you dont need a prophet to tell you that it wont be used

kaysy:
The first image below shows the summary of their conclusions

The second image below are observations and questions from their conclusion

THEY HAVE NOT PROVIDED ANSWERS YET

cant you see that jamb faulted 3 of the summary?no exam conducted(jamb said nothing about this cos it was ok) then verification of jamb results(jamb said nothing here cos it was ok) then d fee charged(jamb asked how much meaning they can charge buh it shouldn't be too expensive).then the point system(jamb said weighting of results put some candidates at a disadvantage meaning it's wrong) lastly they did screening b4 provisional admission(jamb faulted it saying screening should be done after provisional admission )so the parts faulted by jamb cannot be used as model for admission

kaysy:
I saw it, but this method is more likely to be adopted.

in tafawa balewa's model, jamb faulted their o level result life span of 5 years.. why dont you say they would use that one too

BahdXitixenn:
So, what happens to those who used "awaiting result"?

How will Jamb obtain their WAEC/NECO scores to calculate the points?

dont mind this people o...

kaysy:
I saw it, but this method is more likely to be adopted.

chai nigerians! oga abeg stop parading this thing biko... why would jamb fault it if they were going to use it.they clearly stated that it puts some candidates at a disadvantage and you are saying they will still use it.. haba

kaysy:
I think every other thing remains constant as usual.

baba in that pdf file from jamb did you not see where jamb made a remark that the point system puts some candidates at a disadvantage?did u not see it

Teempakguy:
I think I've lost my faith in nigerians.

The High amount of stupidity going on here is painful.

cc Elxandre

i tire o brother.even when jamb clearly faulted that point grading so many people still parade it...most of these people have not read from the raw file..this was how they paraded false news when the minister cancelled putme. some saying it's just a proposal,some said it's not this year.. i tire for Nigerians

If a school declares its cut off mark for Medicine as 90points and JAMB grants a candidate with 250 a provisional admission but his/her total points falls short of the 90 points, then he/she will lose the admission....................baba does this make any sense to you?

i dint seem to get why even some elite dont seem to understand this model?for goodness sake this point grade system was used by ibb which jamb clearly made remark on to be at a disadvantage to some candidates hence will not be used.. it was only a model sample just like the tafawa balewa's.

baba the website is f**king real... it has connection to jamb.org.ng.just click on print admission letter at the end and it tskes you to jamb main website(jamb.org.ng)

naso... that was how you people went about publishing rubbish when the minister cancelled putme.. this information is wrong and misleading

bayocute:
Nd aw are dey gonna do those of us dat wanted polythecnics?

the same procedure would be used

Mickael2:
I am not saying that you are not correct o. Ofcourse it happens each year, but when you are planning you plan for everything. What if miraculously everyone decided to check the brochure? That means schools will admit more than their usual capacity in a particular course. I do not know if u are getting what i mean?

yea maybe that is why jamb is solely responsible for given out admission this year so that universities wont go beyond their capacity... jamb would give admission solely based on jamb results before candidates can proceed for checking of o levels then any candideate who falls short of a requirement in terms of awaiting results or 2 sittings will be put in other courses or forwarded back to jamb for placement in other schs

emmijes3:
They r using verification of results yes....but think!!! In a department with over 3000 candidates,how r they gonna accept all,if they just verify their results..there definitely would be a way of dropping students..... Just to be sure,I even went ahead to ask senior lecturers here in delsu,since they r using the weighting system,,and they emphasising on d fact that awaiting students won't be considered,...just saying though.

admission is coming directly from jamb hence only people given provisional admission by jamb will go for screening and not the 3000 you quoted and there is nothing like weighting as jamb already faulted it

Mickael2:
when making plans, you do not plan in line with a possible accident. It is assumed that any candidate who registers for Jamb must have gone through the brochure, so it is assumed that all of them have the right subject combo, so you see?

Deficiency in O'level could mean choosing someone with an A over someone with a C, isn't that what they explained?

lol there are many secondary sch leavers who dont know their right from their left o let alone check brochures.. it affects many candidates each year.besides their are schs that dont accept waec results of the same year you wrote your jamb in Unizik for instance. secondly,some schs dont accept 2 sittings for a particular course delsu for instance does not accept 2 sittings for medicine.so a candidate given provisional admission by jamb but has 2 sittings for med may be usec to fill short changed courses
