But the likelihood of been admitted to study Medicine And Surgery with a JAMB Score of 200 or 180 (depending on the University) is very thin, on a scale of 1 to 10 would be 2.

The chances are quite low right?

That do not mean that with a Score of, lets say 215 you cannot be admitted to study Medicine And Surgery, you still can, because your JAMB Score only make up 50% of your Admission requirements.

The other 50% is from your Post UTME, O’level or both, depending on the University’s aggregate grading system.

So, a low JAMB Score can be compensated with a high performance in Post UTME or O’level exams (WAEC/NECO/NABTEB).

How To Calculate Aggregate Score For Medicine And Surgery

Universities use different method to compute student’s aggregate score for admission to study Medicine And Surgery

while some Universities use Both JAMB and Post UTME (like the University of Benin), some use JAMB and O’ level (University of AAU) while others use JAMB, Post UTME and O’ level Result like University of Lagos, to calculate student admission aggregate.

Irrespective of the pattern your school of choice adopts for calculating aggregate score for students, your JAMB Score will still make up 50%, your JAMB Score will be divided by 8.

Here is how your average for Medicine And Surgery is calculated using your JAMB Score…

1. Your JAMB Score will be divided by 8, and your Post UTME divided by 2, to give you your total average (this is only applicable for schools using Post UTME and JAMB)
2. JAMB Score divided by 8, plus Post UTME 30% and O’ level 20% (for Schools using O’ level, Post utme and JAMB)
3. JAMB Score divided by 8 + O’ level making the remaining 50%

From the calculation above, you will see that, your JAMB score will always carry bulk of the mark, that is why a high JAMB score is important to study competitive courses like Medicine And Surgery.

If you score 300 in JAMB, dividing 300 by 8 would be 37.5, the departmental cut off mark for Medicine And Surgery is usually not less than 70 for most Universities
