Now, following the conclusion of your 2020 JAMB UTME exam, RNN wishes to enlighten all candidates and the public on how to calculate Post-UTME admission screening scores with their O’level results. With this, you have a chance to know your chance of gaining admission.

If your institution of choice is going to screen candidates using only O’level results and JAMB score, then it is likely they use the Point Grade System.

However, before we commence, take note of the following information about 2020 JAMB UTME;

• Take note that these analyses or calculation varies from Institutions but we will address it appropriately.
• Candidates who score above 200 may gain MERIT Admission in JAMB into their prefered Institutions. Though depending on the choice of Institution of candidates.

To buttress this point, we shall be using Lagos State University(LASU) and the University of Ibadan(UI) Point Grading System.

NOTE: 

UTME scores equivalent point can be summarised thus, 180-200=20-23 marks, 200-250=24-33 points, 251-300=34-43, 300-400=44-60 points.

From the table above, we believe it is now clear that this calculation varies from Institutions.

How To Calculate Admission Screening Scores:

• By Sittings: Assuming you have all your required O’level subjects in one sitting, you already have 10 marks.
• O’Level: Let’s say you have 1A, 5Bs and 3Cs in your O’level result (WAEC/ NECO/ GCE), then you have, (1×10) + (8×4) + (3×6) = 60points.
• JAMB Score: Then, say you scored 200 in JAMB UTME, you get 24 Points.
• To get the total point, you sum everything together (i.e: Sittings + O’level + JAMB Score).
•  This implies that  10 + 60 + 24 = 78 Points. If the cut-off mark for your course of choice in a particular school is below 78, then you will be admitted into that institution.
