JAMB Score: 248, Course: Computer Science, School: University of Lagos (UNILAG). What are my chances?

Great score, Collins! 248 gives you 31 out of 50 in UNILAG's UTME point calculation. Assuming your 5 core O'Level subjects give you at least 16/20, you should aim for 22+ out of 30 in the UNILAG Post-UTME to beat the merit cut-off for Computer Science.

JAMB Score: 192, Course: Nursing Science, School: UNN. Please advise me.

Hi Somto, Nursing Science at UNN is extremely competitive and typically requires 260+ in UTME. With 192, we strongly advise changing your course to a less competitive Science/Education course or switching to a School of Nursing/Polytechnic when JAMB opens the Change of Course portal.
