WAEC and JAMB Subject Combination For Computer Science: What are the JAMB Subject combination to study Computer Science in Nigeria?, Must I pass Maths in WAEC to study Computer Science?, what subjects are needed to study Computer Science?

Hey SAVANTS! Welcome to today’s episode of my “JAMB doctor Series” in this episode, you will see the correct WAEC and JAMB Subject combination for Computer Science, you will also see Direct entry requirement to study Computer Science through JAMB, JUPEB and IJMB, pretty cool right?… STAY TUNED!

For everyone who plans to study Computer Science in Nigeria, it is important and necessary you know the subjects that are required to becoming a Computer Scientist in Nigeria.

I have seen cases, where students who wish to study a particular course go ahead to register the wrong subject combination in JAMB and in their O’level (WAEC, NECO or NABTEB) simply because they were not well informed and would later start searching for means with which correct the mistake.
