What are my Chances of getting
Admission for 2017/2018?
However, we would love to inform you that the answer is
not easy, if one must be sincere, there are several
questions like this:
how can I know my average score for admission 2017?
how can I calculate my average score?
Well, here is a simple method you can use to calculate
and know your chances in getting admission.
How to Calculate Your Average Score
However, in recent years, Several Nigerian Universities and
Polytechnics, has developed a system of calculating
prospective candidates average score after their Post-UTME
exercise.
Academic institutions like Unilag , MOUAU ha been doing
this for years now, since they are using this average score
as a basis for admission selection.
This average score is calculated using the JAMB score and
the UTME Screening score of her prospective candidate.
However, the formula to check your chances at getting
admitted in any Nigeria Universities, Polytechnics and
College of Education is extremely simple;
a. First, divide the JAMB score by 8,
b. Then divide the Post-UTME score by,
c. Sum the two results.
What i mean by this, is that you are required to add up
a and b as mentioned above.
Here is the Pass Bench Mark:
However, as we have mentioned before, MOUAU has set a
pass bench mark of 40 across all courses, including arts
and sciences.
But due to the fact that there is heavy competition for
admission slots, this usually rises in response to the level
of competition of candidates seeking admission.
Your Chance Of Getting Admitted :
Please note that after you must have finished calculating
your average score, if it is below 40 marks, then you are
most unlikely going to secure admission this year.
But if you score is above 40 marks, then i prophesy that
you will get admission (seriously, you can start preparing
to go to school.)
But what we should not overlook here is that admission
competition can change if the competition to get admitted
from students is much more than that of last year.
Please note that the competition has been undoing of many
prospective candidates.
Most casualties come from such courses as mentioned
below.
Computer Engineering,
EE Engineering,
Mechanical Engineering,
Computer Science,
Biochemistry,
Microbiology,
Accounting,
Among others.
Are you confused about this?
Okay, let me explain what i meant by mentioning the above
courses.
What am trying to point at here, is that there is always
a huge number of candidates who apply for the above
mentioned courses, there is a large population contending
for the relatively few admission spaces available within
these course.
Here is an example of what i mean:
A candidate seeking for admission with an average score
of about 60 may not be admitted if he/she apply to a
very competitive course, while another candidate who
probably scored 45 may get admitted on the merit lists,
because this candidate applied to a less competitive course
as mentioned below.
Plant Health Management,
Agronomy,
Animal Production,
Likewise, this applies to any Science Education courses.
So the lower the number of candidates seeking admission
into a particular course, the lower the post utme cut off
mark.
