Can i call you bukky?
K.. Bukky. Lets say you wanna choose comp sci. Knowing the statistics can help you choose a school where the probability of gaining admission is high.

For example, First time i checked for comp science for Unilorin.. i got 668 candidates, for medicine in Unilorin i got 1000 something sha. Now presently candidates for Unilorin comp sci is over 1000 and over 5000 for Medicine.
If you check similar schools, you will surely see a trend like this. There's a geometric increment in competitive courses like this and kinda arithmetic increment in less competitive course.

Now what am trying to pass through is, there is a proportionality between the rate of students applying in their a school to other rate of students applying in other schools.

A little bit of an example for clarification.
Suffice to say that if at this current moment Unilorin has 5000 candidates applying for lets say Accounting while the figures for four other schools for the same school is 2300, 1200, 3700, 2900. An increase in the candidates applying for accounting in unilorin will also show an increase in other schools. Meaning in the nearest future, Lets say two weeks from now, if the figure for Unilorin is 7000, the figures for other school would have increased.
Now the tricky part is this.. Even though there's an increase in other schools, the probability of the school having an initial figure of 1200 to emerge as the school having the most candidates is very low. I doubt if the school with an initial figure of 2900 will have more candidates applying for accounting than the school with the initial figure of 3700.
Hope u following sha..
This means you could use the statistics to look for a school that offers you more edge of gaining an admission.

As of now, the candidates applying for comp sci at UI are less than 500 while for Unilorin is over 1000. Now tell me which school offers more edge provided every other thing remain constant. Things such as Catchment area, ELDS, Aggregate scoring, etc.

P.S: Am sorry if my explanation Seems like rambling.. my brain ain't cool enough to supply an easier explanation
Guy, you have to consider some factors too

Not everybody That applied for a course will score 200 and above
moreover after Jamb exams, some people will still do change of institution/course

For example,
Let's say 10000 candidates applied outrightly for medicine in Unilag......
There's a probability that not all of them would score 200 and above meaning those ones will have to do change of institution into universities that accept 180 plus,that's one

the other one is that some people might score low that they might think their scores might not give them medicine like unilorin who has already set their cut off for medicine at 240, and let's say the candidate scores like 222, such a candidate might consider doing change of course into less competitive one
Hereby the Number of applicants(10000) for that outright course has depreciated .
My point is now that checking of jamb statistics is good and on the other way is not reliable.....


Just follow your instinct, choose the course you can be sure of and make a plan B!!!!
