UI Cut Off Mark For Mechanical Engineering

To study Mechanical Engineering 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 into the Faculty of Engineering UI to study Mechanical Engineering.
Mechanical Engineering being a very competitive course in Nigeria require you score very well in JAMB, a JAMB score of 280 and above should do the Job, and also doing very well in UI Post UTME Exam is a prerequisite.
Post UTME Score For Mechanical Engineering In UI
A score of 68.5 in UI Post UTME is good enough to secure your spot in UI to study Mech Engine.
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 Mechanical Engineering.
Based on previous years, the aggregate score for Mechanical Engineering in UI is 68.5, now let’s both analyze the JAMB and Post UTME score you will need to get to score above the aggregate 68.5.
UI Mechanical Engineering Aggregate Score
UI Aggregate score for admission into Mechanical Engineering is 68.5.
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 Mechanical Engineering in UNIBEN and scored 280 in JAMB and 70 in Post UTME, using this formular, the aggregate score is;
280/8 + 70/2 = 35 + 35
Making the student’s aggregate score 70
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.
