UI Cut Off Mark For Biochemistry
To study Biochemistry in UI you must score at least 200 in JAMB to qualify for Post UTME.
But scoring 200 in JAMB won’t guarantee your admission to study Biochemistry in UI.
Biochemistry is a competitive course to study in Nigeria, and as such you will be required to have a good JAMB score to stand a chance
JAMB score of 250 and above should do the Job, and also doing very well in UI Post UTME Exam is a prerequisite.
Post UTME Score For Biochemistry In UI
A Post UTME score of 60 is good enough for Biochemistry.
You may be asking, why do I need to score that high in JAMB and still do well in Post UTME?
Well, the truth is, admission to student is dependent on varying factors, such as Merit, ELDS, general students performance etc.
Students admitted on the merit list must score well above the aggregate score for Biochemistry.
Based on previous years, the aggregate score for Biochemistry in UI is 60
now let’s both analyze the JAMB and Post UTME score you will need to get to score above the aggregate 60.
UI Biochemistry Aggregate Score
UI Aggregate score for admission to Biochemistry is 60.
To calculate UI admission aggregate score, you divide your JAMB Score by 8 and your Post UTME score by 2 and sum them up.
We can then say that your aggregate score is the summation of your JAMB score divided by 8 and your Post UTME score divided by 2.
A student who wishes to study Biochemistry in UI and scored 250 in JAMB and 60 in Post UTME, using this formular, the aggregate score can then be calculate as;
250/8 + 60/2 = 31.25 + 30
Making the student’s aggregate score 61.25
So you see that the higher your JAMB and Post UTME score the higher your average aggregate score which consequently increases your chances of being admitted.
