Medicine and Surgery is the most competitive course to get admission to study at Nigerian Federal, State and Private universities. It is the dream course of many science students.
The high competition for Medicine and Surgery is why admission to the MBBS programme is not easy.
Every admission year, thousands of students apply for the JAMB examination to study Medicine and Surgery in Nigeria.
Only a few per cent of these students get admission to study Medicine and Surgery at the university of their choice.
Many students do not get admission to Medicine and Surgery because they do not score up to the cut-off mark for the course.
It is advisable to know the cut-off mark for Medicine and Surgery in the school you are applying to study.
You would not want to make the common mistake of applying for admission to Medicine with a low JAMB score.
Let me know if you are not sure if your UTME score can get you admission to study Medicine. Also, tell me the university you are applying for in your JAMB.
This post is about the cut-off marks for Medicine and Surgery in Nigeria. I have also included the list of universities with the lowest cut-off mark for Medicine and Surgery.
Let me know in the comment box if you have any questions or need further assistance. I would love to hear from you.
