Before we start, let’s first understand what the term Post UTME stands for.
What Is Post UTME?
As mentioned earlier, Post UTME is an acronym for Post – Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, in other words, it’s the exam you sit for after your JAMB Exam, this exam in most cases constitute about 50% of your admission requirements.
Each School organize and conduct their Post UTME independently, and you need to pass this just as much as you did in JAMB or even better to increase your chances of being admitted into the school of your choice.
NOTE: Not Sitting for Post UTME is an automatic ticket to not being admitted, no negotiations.
Is Post UTME A Written Exam?
The truth is, not in all cases is Post UTME in the form of a written exam, the form it takes is based on the school in question, although some Universities are known for written exam (Schools like the University of Benin) others just prefer to conduct screening like Ambrose Alli University.
For schools not conducting a written Exam, the student would be expected to submit their O’level result (WAEC, NECO & NABTEB). Their O’ Level would be graded and scored based on their Performance.
How Many Subjects Are Written In Post UTME?
You are to write a total of four (4) subjects in your Post UTME exam, these four subjects are the same with what you sat for in UTME, although some schools may add some aptitude test questions to test the IQ of their students.
This means, Student who sat for JAMB use of English, Government, Economics, and Mathematics are likely to sit for these same subject again in their Post UTME.

To be really sure, you can try getting the Post UTME past question for you school of choice, this will go a long way in your preparation. you can easily get the past question from your school directly.
How Many Questions Are set in Post UTME?
Well, I can’t say for sure the exact number of questions you will be asked in your Post UTME, but more often than not, the number of questions asked ranges from 30 to 40.
This can also be confirmed from the past question.
It could be more or less but most schools for some reason best known to them prefer sticking with this range.
Post UTME Subjects
Like I mentioned before, the subjects you are to sit for in your Post UTM exam are similar to what you sat for in JAMB
If any additional subjects will be added it will be something the school believes you should be familiar with.
You may also come across some aptitude test questions.
But there is no need to worry much about this because everything about Post UTME aptitude test questions and how to answer them have been explained HERE.
