UNIZIK Post UTME Calculation
Candidates will be screened based on their JAMB scores and O’ level result for the four subjects
taken in JAMB. The following considerations will apply:
Ratio
The ratio will be 70:30. i.e.
70% JAMB score and 30% O’ level subject score 70/100 = 0.7; 30/100 = 0.3
Ranking of O’level Result Scores
O’ level results will be ranked as given below:
- A1= 90
- B2= 80
- B3= 70
- C4= 60
- C5= 55
- C6= 50
- D7= 25
- E8 to F9=0
- Awaiting Result (AR) =0
For each candidate, the O’ level subjects used will be the subjects the candidate sat for in JAMB.
E.g. for a candidate who sat for English, Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics in JAMB, the grades obtained in candidate O’ level results in these subjects will be used to calculate the O’ level points
obtained.
Bonus
A candidate who credited his four subjects in a single sitting will get a bonus of 10 points (i.e. Bonus =10).
A candidate who credited his four subjects in two sitting will get no bonus (i.e. Bonus = 0).
Calculations
Final score = [(JAMB SCORE`* 0.7) + [(O’ level score + Bonus)*0.3]
Example:
A student scored 280 in JAMB and had O’ level results distributed as given in the table below:
| Subjects | JAMB Scores | O’level Results | O’level Scores |
|---|---|---|---|
| English | 66 | A1 | 90 |
| Mathematics | 78 | B3 | 70 |
| Physics | 70 | B3 | 70 |
| chemistry | 66 | C5 | 55 |
| TOTAL | 280 | 285 |
Single Sitting
Final score= Weighted JAMB score + Weighed O’ level score
(280 x 0.7) + [ (285 +10) x 0.3]
= 196 + 88.5 = 284.5
Two Sitting
Weighted JAMB score + Weighed O’ level score
(280 x 0.7) + [ (285+ 0)x 0.3]
= 196 + 85.5 = 281.5
Note: The difference between the final screening scores of a candidate who credited his four subjects in a single sitting and the candidate who made it in two sittings is 3 (i.e. 284.5 – 281.5)
