Post UTME is waiting for them

tdayof:
Getting admitted as a science student will be very competitive this year except the candidate has a good O'level result.

I have seen alot of students with 280-330. Most universities divide Jamb by 8 which means 320/8=40 points. However, most students do not have a strong o'level. Most of the candidates O'LEVEL points will fall into 30 with few having 30-40 points.

This means 40+30=70 points. You should also know most of these guys got less than 320 in jamb. Most are withing the range of 280-304 . So 304/8= 38 points. With total being 68.

What I'm trying to say is most of the science students results are of high score and at the same time this is a big hinderance for them to secure admission as most of them already have a weak waec result. The jamb only compliments their waec which is an advantage to boost their aggregate.

The big issue now is admission. Last year UI medicine and surgery was 71 points with around 170 students to be admitted.. Over 3,000 applicants applied to study at UI and a minimum of 350 applied to study medicine and surgery. Out of the 350, 100 won't meet the cutoff and the remaining students amount to 250.

Now 250 students made the cut or but only 170 are to be admitted. 100 as merit and 70 as cachement. Now the student best bet is to be among the top 100..

Cut off is 71 and a student has 73 while 60 students have 73.4-75 while the rest have 75-75. Now this is what no one likes.

Advice, calculate your aggregate and be sure you're meeting up with cut off or probably apply for change or course to a course where you can cross back to your preferred course

Thank You.

bro i scored 205 in my jamb and I got a nice o'level result . like 1 =A, 6=B's,1=C and 1=D and apply for engineering course in uniben and fed uni otuoke. what's my faith

Anabia:
Yes I've seen my result

When did you see it ?

I think Mr op is just a sadist, you want everyone to fail right?

You got the message cllearly. Rejoicing just because you pass 200 may eventually not last. But honestly, someone needs to speak to the team of examiners of JAMB to brace up. They should not be coerced to lower the standard. WAEC questions this year, to me, beat those of JAMB's both in structure and completeness. And before now, it used to be the other way round

I don't agree with this ur opinion, I think mass education should be encouraged.
In the yesteryears jamb used to be so toug, I mean unnecessaryly tough as a result of which a lot of ppl who wished to get educated gets knocked off and eventually becomes frustrated and gives up after trying for a few other times .
So I think jamb softening a little makes sense.
The only challenge I forsee is admissions, the government needs to build ,encourage n develope more schools, even the existing ones ,if well equipped n developed would definitely accomodate more students
and increase the amount of students that gets admitted
Education I think should be for almost every one and not just for the extremely brilliant or expo carriers ,like it was during our time .
Education after all they say ,is the bedrock of any society.

There many online university you can apply for whr u will get your B.sc or Master degree certificate. If you r smart if u can't get admission into regular sch then consider reputable online university. If you need advise call me.

WatchinginHD:
The question this year are to cheap even a jss1 student will pass with 250+, jamb is a disaster

Kenshinmunac:
Stuffy how? When I enter DELSU, na slot I use, my father in law when be high chief there gave letter of recommendation for me to be admitted.

So nigga it's all about connection.

Your Use of English just confirmed your story. Thank God Law is not Medicine and Surgery where human life will be at your mercy

O'level = 50points; Jamb Score = 50points.

So, for ur utme, divide it by 8. E.g suppose you scored 288, it'll be 288/8 =36. That means out of 50points accruable to utme, you've secured 36.

For O'level. This is how it goes:

A1=6points
B2=5points
B3=4points
C4=3points
C5=2points
C6=1points

So, let's say your result looks like this

Maths B2 (that's 5points)
English C4 (that's 3points)
Physics A1 (that's 6points)
Biology B3 (that's 4points)
Chemistry A1 (that's 6points)

Summing the points together, you have 5+3+6+4+6 =24 (out of possible 30)

It'll now be:

24/30*50 = 40. (It means for O'level, you've secured 40 out of possible 50).

Putting the two together, you have

40+36 =76.
So, your aggregate is 76.

You'll realise that though the grades and scores are impressive, a candidate who had this last year would not secure admission to UI, UNILAG or OAU medicine. And that's the import of my post. With huge scores this year, the cut-off may even be higher.

Hope you find this helpful.

bro how do you kme about the 30 in waec result that you divided it with

Just forget about uniben this year.

tdayof:
Thank you for the correction. The bolded is what I am trying to explain. Some people already feel they have an automatic admission due to their high score in jamb.

But it's a boost

but I calculated my aggregate and I got 84%

I find this very very helpful. Thanks a lot, I appreciate!

Anyone that wrote their jamb on Tuesday by 1:30 should please tell me if they have seen their result.....a friend of mine haven't seen hers ....please

my bro has seen his... 234

.But Op,is it ALL PRIME uni that makes use of these 50/50 system ?.Why I asked was because it was not these method UNN ,just to mention few,used last year.Or is it only SOME uni like UNILAG,IU ....u mention them,that made & is still making use of it ?.Though ur post was an eye opener,really appreciate,but looking forward to ur respond to my above question(s).

.It is the truth chap,but I think not all uni make or is making use of such system.U really had forgotten a lady that scored 320 last year & did not make it to OAU ,medicine ?probably she had a low ssce result and other factors could have played a role as well ("witches from d village".....lolz).But these guy,u don't have to use abusive words to pass ur message .U don't know who is know.#Respect man!
