JAMB 2017--See How to Calculate Your Points for Admission


It is no more a news that admission seekers' spirits are high over admission process after JAMB 2017. Parents and applicants are anxious to know what comes next after successfully passing JAMB that would facilitate their children admission into various institution of learning in Nigeria.

Here is a vital information that would guide your thought and possibly your next line of action.

This information is very essential for all those who sat for this year 2017 JAMB exam.

 OFFICIAL JAMB GRADING SYSTEM FOR 2017/2018
 ADMISSION…. FROM OUR SOURCE
 JAMB SCORE GRADE POINTS
 180 – 185 ——–20 points
 186 – 190——–21points
 191 -195———22points
 196 – 200——–23points
 201 – 205——–24points
 206 – 210——–25 points
 211 – 215——–26 points
 216 -220———27 points
 221 -225——–28 points
 226 -230———-29 points
 231 -235———-30 points
 236 – 240——–31 points
 241 – 245 ———32 points
 246 -250———-33 points
 251 -300—- (34- 43points)
 300 -400——-(44 – 60 points)

WAEC / NECO O’LEVEL GRADE POINTS
 1. Single sitting— 10 points
 2. Combined Results–2 points
 A1—————–6 points
 B2 and B3———4 points
 C4 – C6———–3 points

For example
 Yakubu Kehinde Obinna scored 242 in UTME = 32 points
 He applies for Electrical Engineering
 He presents only one WAEC result=10 points
 He has 1A, 2B and 2C in the necessary subjects.
 1 A: 1 x 6 = 6points
 2 B: 2 x 4 = 8points
 2 C: 2 x 3 = 6points
 His total points = 32+10+6+8+6 =62 points
 He will now await the school to release the cut off point for
 his course.

 Now, if the point requirements for the department he is applying to, let us say in  Unilorin, is 56 for instance, he is eligible for admission but it does not means that he  has been admitted automatically, he still needs to wait for the school to possibly  offer him admission.

JAMB: Reps Summon Oloyede Over UTME 2017


The House of Representatives on Tuesday summons JAMB Registrar, Prof. Is'haq Oloyede, called for the extension of the deadline for the 2017 registration of Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
The House mandated its Committee on Tertiary Education and Services to liaise with the Joint Matriculation and Admissions Board (JAMB) to ensure that the extension call was honoured.
The Committee is expected to carry out the assignment within one week.
This emanated from the adoption of a motion by Rep. Damburam Nuhu (APC-Kano).

Motion for the extension

In the motion, Nuhu called for one month extension on the exercise, saying that it would create additional time for more prospective applicants to register for the examination.
He said out of over 1.5 million secondary school students expected to register for the examination, only 600, 000 were able to register for the exercise two weeks into the one month period allotted to it.

Inefficient registration centres

According to him, some of the approved centres are registering 250 applicants at a time and most of them are not spacious and do not have adequate computers.
”Some of them have naked wires exposed and are haphazardly arranged on ordinary planks, thus lacking in safety requirement in case of an emergency,” Nuhu said.
He urged JAMB to specify requirements, including safety measures, which qualified any centre to participate in the conduct of the UTME computer-based test.
The lawmaker also stated the need for the House to invite the JAMB Registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, to explain the proficiency of the computer-based process of registration for applicants in rural areas.
At the end of the discussion, the house deems it fit to invite the registrar of JAMB, Prof. Is'haq Olanrewaju Oloyede to explain and enlighten them about JAMB's preparation, safety and possible extension of registration within 48hours.
