JAMB Score Between 150 -179 In 2016 UTME- Your Next Step

This thread is for candidates who scored 150-179 and above in the 2016 Unified tertiary Matriculation Examination.

Apparently, you did not meet the cut-off mark that is acceptable in any known university but that does not mean you cannot secure any admission this year.

You may have concluded that a polytechnic is your best option at this point. However, you can still gain admission into 200Level in a University. Yes! You read right, a university. Have you heard about IJMB Programme? IJMB means Interim Joint Matriculation Board, while IJMBE is the "Examination" itself. IJMB is an Advanced-Level (A-Level) Course, which you take for 9 months, after which you take a final exam that gives you a certificate.
With the certificate obtained at the end of the programme, you can apply for admission into 200 Level in institutions like UNILAG, ABU, UNILORIN, UNIPORT etc.

However, if you still want to settle for a polytechnic, the first step to take now is to verify if you have the required cut-off mark for your course of study in the polytechnic you selected during UTME Registration.

The information gathered will enable you know if you are to go for JAMB change of course or institution.

Also you have the hurdle of post-UTME to deal with. Experience has shown that most institutions usually repeat their post-UTME questions. That means that studying with a post-UTME past questions would be of great help. 

 
Don’t forget also that you need to obtain your JAMB Original Result Slip. This is the only officially recognized JAMB Result and you will definitely require this for your Post-UTME. 

You can use this medium to interact among yourselves and share valuable information that will help one another.

JAMB Score Below 150 In 2016 UTME - Your Next Step

This thread is for candidates who scored below 150 in the 2016 Unified tertiary Matriculation Examination.

You may have concluded that no admission is coming forth for you this year considering your score. However, the saying that there is no problem without a solution stands true even in this case.

We want to use this medium to guide you on the next step to take.

One thing I need you to know before I continue is that JAMB UTME is not the only gateway to a higher institution. Since the 2016 UTME wasn’t favourable to you, you may need to consider other alternatives to securing admission.

There are four alternatives you need to consider now, namely; pre-degree programmes (Universities), Evening Programmes (polytechnics), Part-time programmes

(universities and polytechnics) and Interim Joint Matriculation Board (IJMB).

The Pre-Degree Programme is offered by many universities and is designed to support candidates who did not meet certain requirements for admission. The candidates are usually admitted into a degree programme of their choice after completing the pre-degree programme which usually lasts for a year. You can always check on www.freshlinkbiz.blogspot.com for updates on school pre-degree programmes.

Candidates who apply for part-time and evening progammes get admitted directly to 100 level just like UTME candidates, the only difference here is you are likely going to spend one additional year. That is 5 years for a course a UTME candidate would have spent 4 years on. Also the tuition fees are usually high.

IJMB means Interim Joint Matriculation Board, while IJMBE is the "Examination" itself. IJMB is an Advanced-Level (A-Level) Course, which you take for 9 months, after which you take a final exam that gives you a certificate.

IJMB seems to be the best alternative because the certificate obtained at the end of the programme can be used to apply for 200 Level Admission into institutions like UNILAG, ABU, UNILORIN, UNIPORT etc.

However, if all these options do not suit you, you have one other last option. That is, TRYING AGAIN.
That you did not succeed this year does not mean you will not succeed next year.

I wish you all the best as you make your decisions. You can use this medium to interact among yourselves and share valuable information that will help one another.
