However, many students are displeased with their results because they fell below their expectations. We have received a lot of queries on the success or failure rate of the 2022 UTME. This can not be determined until JAMB collates the data and releases it to the public.
In the meantime, check out the video of 2021 JAMB result collation.
Oh, that was supposed to be funny, but those are the lives of students with promising futures. Some are just about becoming hopeless, while some are curious to know if they have a chance at all.
JAMB Cut off Mark for Universities
In this article, we would be listing out Nigerian Universities that can offer you admission, even if you score below 180. It is understood that JAMB has set the minimum cut-off mark for universities to 160, polytechnics for 140 while that of colleges of education is pegged at 100.
Even so, the JAMB Registrar, Professor Oloyede pointed out that “even if you score zero, you should be offered admission to these courses.” He also noted that just 25,000 spaces are available for medicine accross Nigeria but over 400,000 candidates applied in 2021.
That’s huge, right? Hint: Never apply for competitive courses if your JAMB score is not very much higher than the cut off mark.
Meanwhile, the practical minimum cut off mark for most Nigerian Universities is 180. Nevertheless, there are still universities that accept 160 and even below for admission, especially private and state universities.
Most state universities accept 150; private universities accept as low as 120 while some federal universities accept 170 as cut off marks.
