HOW TO CALCULATE EKITI STATE UNIVERSITY (EKSU) UTME/POST-UTME 2015/2016 AGGREGATE SCORE

Here is how to calculate your Ekiti State University (EKSU's) JAMB-UTME/POST-UTME aggregate score. Your JAMB score divided by 8 and anything you score in your POST-UTME divided by 30 multiplied by 50, so your JAMB is over 50 and your POST-UTME is over 50.
The addition of both gives you your overall percent. If you have anything less than 50, there is no hope for you in Ekiti State University (EKSU) and dont let anybody scam you. You can try your second choice or polytechnics.

Example:
If you get 280/400 in JAMB, 280/8=35
and get 15 in EKSU's POST-UTME, (15/30)*50 = 25
The aggregate is the addition of the two which is in percentage; (35 + 25 ) = 60%
This aggregate score is pretty good.
NOTE: to be considered for screening (in any course), your aggregate score must be greater than or equal to 50% (this applies to many other universities too).
Departmental cut-off marks are yet to be released. We'd update you as soon as they are released.

Jackie Chan Set To Come To Naija Cinemas!

Have you heard that the legend, Jackie Chan, will be in Nigeria from September 4th 2015? Awesome! Get to see him first hand (don’t be told) as he performs his mesmerizing stunts and tells a fantastic story in cinemas across Nigeria through his $65million dollar film “Dragon Blade”. This has been dubbed as one of the finest of his works starring Golden Globe Winner (John Cusack), Academy Award Winner (Adrien Brody) and Jackie Chan. 

Dragon Blade tells the story ofHuoAn (Jackie Chan), a Hun, serving as the captain of the Protection Squad Silk Road. A Roman general named Lucius (John Cusack) flees to the East with his legion and Publius (Jozef Waite), heir of the ruling Roman Consul, to escape from the corrupt Emperor Tiberius (Adrien Brody), who plans to kill Publius and usurp the throne. They meet HuoAn at a frontier fort on the Silk Road, where they receive sanctuary. Tiberius and his army, who have pursued Lucius along the Silk Road, approach the fort with intention of killing Publius and ambitions of capturing and controlling the Silk Road. HuoAn decides to help Lucius, and goes to his allies to recruit an army to fight against Tiberius. HuoAn arrives with reinforcements, and an epic battle like never seen before, begins.

The film is being distributed by FilmOne and watch out for the shout out by Jackie Chan to all Naija peeps before the release (online and at the cinemas) and those who get to watch the movie, stand the chance of having an “authentic” Dragon Blade poster, autographed by Jackie Chan himself.
