I have always said that your JAMB score alone does not guarantee admission. Regardless of your JAMB score, do not joke with your Post-UTME. This is because Post UTME carries a large percentage in the total score that determines whether or not you gain admission. So a good performance in Post-UTME will help you gain admission even with your low Jamb score.

Don’t abandon your books because you have a high JAMB score. You are supposed to study hard also for your Post-UTME exam. As a matter of fact, in some schools, a high Post-UTME will increase your chances of gaining admission more than a high JAMB score. Nevertheless, it is better to have both a high JAMB score and a high Post-UTME score.

This means you should strive to do well in your Post-UTME. Especially for candidates that scored low in JAMB, Post-UTME is a good opportunity to boost your score.

Over the years, we have observed that candidates with low JAMB scores but high Post UTME scores, securing admission despite the low jamb Score; provided they are able to meet the cut-off mark of their schools of choice.

Schools like UNIBEN takes Post-UTME score very serious. Regardless of your JAMB score once you score anything below 50 in UNIBEN’s Post-UTME. There is a high possibility that you won’t be considered for admission,

In UNIBEN, Post-UTME carries 50 percent of the total score that determines your admission. Based on experience, UNIBEN divides the JAMB score by 8 and Post UTME score by 2. If you scored 200 in JAMB and 90 in Post UTME for instance; UNIBEN will divide your Jamb score by 8 and your Post UTME score by 2.

200 divided by 8 is equal to 25 and 90 divided by 2 is 45. Therefore, 25 plus 45 gives you 70. With such as your total admission score, you have a good chance of getting admission into any course of your choice in UNIBEN.

In conclusion, while it is good to score high both in Jamb and Post UTME, you can still gain admission to study your desired course if you do well in Post UTME irrespective of your Jamb score. So don’t procrastinate; you can get the Original Post-UTME Past Questions and answers of your school of choice and start preparing

The Vice-Chancellor of Babcock University, Prof. Adeyemo Tayo, has described the Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS) as a wonderful innovation that has helped to eliminate fraudsters, admission racketeers, and unqualified candidates from the admission value chain. CAPS, a brainchild of Prof. Oloyede that was introduced in 2017, is an automated admission platform for the nation’s tertiary institutions which was designed to preclude human interference in the admission process as well as provide an active platform through which all major stakeholders in the admission process could function.

This is because the platform enhances fairness, credibility, openness, transparency, and equity in the conduct of admissions. In addition, candidates are given the opportunity to either accept or reject offers of admission if they are not pleased with the programmes offered. In a chat with JAMBulletin, the erudite Professor also submitted that the implementation of CAPS had not only weeded out undesirable elements but had gone a long way in sanitizing the admission process while boosting public confidence in the admission process.

Prof. Tayo said, “The introduction of CAPS by the present leadership of JAMB has instilled global best practices in the screening of candidates for admission, eliminating multiple admissions and admission racketeers as well as preventing unqualified candidates from gaining entrance into our tertiary institutions.

Babcock University, as a citadel of learning, identifies with all these laudable strides. Now that the 2020 Policy Meeting on Admissions is fast approaching, I enjoin the Board to take into consideration those institutions that have made stable academic calendar a hallmark of their academic agenda in its scheduling of admission activities.”

The Lagos State Government has concluded plans to employ no fewer than 2,000 more teachers in its public primary schools. Meanwhile, it was gathered that both officials of the Federal and State Governments are presently in consultation to fashion out guidelines and modality for reopening of schools which closure was precipitated by the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic.

Also, the state government, through the Office of Education Quality Assurance has designed an initiative, tagged “Read-Aloud, Lagos”, to create and stimulate the interest of school children in reading books.

On the recruitment plan of teachers, the state’s Commissioner for Education, Folashade Adefisayo disclosed this during an online show, Covinspiration show, moderated by a United Nations (UN) Youth Ambassador, Dayo Isreal, while giving scorecard of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu led administration within the 360 days.

Adefisayo said the move to employ more teachers was aimed at the standard of public primary school education in the state. She lamented that the pandemic has held the ministry of education back in the completion of its plans for the sector.

According to Adefisayo: “The administration after assumption of office decided to address the challenges in education aggressively in 2020 but the pandemic which country’s index case happened in Lagos has halted various plans for education in the state.”

She stressed that administration went back to the drawing as soon as President Muhammadu Buhari lifted the lockdown earlier imposed on Lagos and other states so as to fast track completion of 2020 plans which includes recruitment of teachers.

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has cancelled the passing-out ceremonial parade for the 2019 Batch “B” Stream1 corps members, which is slated to hold on May 28th 2020.

It said the development is due to the threat posed by the deadly coronavirus pandemic.

The scheme in a statement issued in Abuja, on Monday, by the Director of Public Relations, Mrs Adenike Adeyemi, said in line with the COVID-19 protocol of social/physical distancing, Certificate of National Service (CNS) will be issued to qualified Corps Members at the Local Government level

“Accordingly, a full complement of NYSC Officers have been mobilised for the distribution; and shall do so from ten service points in each of the Local Government Councils,” the statement partly read.

Also, it explained that certificate issuance will be delayed for ten days to allow for a seamless and cumbersome distribution process.

“As a precautionary measure, the distribution shall be staggered for a period of ten days in the first instance, in order to remove anxiety from the concerned corps members, in addition to making the activity seamless and less cumbersome,” it added.

While congratulating corps members for the successful completion of the service, which it described as “a major milestone”, the scheme urged them to ensure;” the strictest observance of discipline; anchored on orderliness, adherence to instructions, added to the rules of social/physical distancing, use of facemask, hand sanitiser and proper washing of the hands with liquid soap for at least twenty seconds during the activity.”

It further warned corps Members who are currently not in their states of service against violating the ban on inter-state journeys but noted that they could proceed to their respective States of service to collect their CNS as soon as the ban is lifted and it is safe to travel.

“Kindly note that unclaimed certificates shall be returned to the NYSC National Directorate Headquarters, Abuja two weeks after the lifting of the inter-state travel ban

“Please, always stay in touch with our social media platforms, as well as the mainstream media for further information,” it stressed.

All You Should Know About Combining O’Level Results.

Many candidates often ask if their schools of choice will accept the combination of O’level results or accept O’level results obtained after two sittings. Combining O’level results or Using “Two sittings Result” happens when you don’t have all the needed O’level requirements for your course of study in a single result, which means you have to sit for another exam to make up for the remaining required subject (s).

There are three recognized bodies when it comes to conducting O’level examinations in Nigeria;

-The West African Examination Council (WAEC)

-National Examination Council (NECO)

–National Business and Technical Examinations Board (NABTEB)

One major question students or admission seekers often ask concerning the results obtained from these examination bodies is, “Can I combine “this” with “that”?

Now, let’s deal with that. When it comes to combining O’level results, one thing you should know is that almost all institutions accept two sittings and that means you can actually combine a maximum of two O’Level results when seeking admission into that course (WAEC/NECO, WAEC/WAEC, NECO/NECO, WAEC/NABTEB, NECO/ NABTEB, NABTEB/NABTEB) and their GCE equivalents regardless of the difference between the years you sat for them. However, there are exceptions;

1. Some schools accept 5 credits at one sitting or 6 credits at two sittings for some courses e.g University of Ibadan (UI) accepts O’ level 5 credits at one sitting or 6 credits at two sittings for Law.
2. UNIBEN, UNIBADAN, IMSU, ABSU, EBSU, UNIOSUN, ANSU, UNILORIN, DELSU, UNILAG, UNN, and BOWEN accepts just one sitting for Medicine And Surgery (MBBS).
3. UI Accepts Just one sitting for Pharmacy
4. All Polytechnics, Colleges of Education, etc accept a combination of results but it should not exceed two sittings

Combining O’level results does not really put you at a disadvantage during the admission process. The only time it does is in the instances mentioned above or if your school of choice decides to consider the number of O’level exam sittings as one of the primary criteria in the admission process which rarely happens.

So the bottom line is whether it is one sitting or two sittings, just make sure that you have the right O’level requirements for any course you intend to apply for in your school of choice.

We hope this helps. If you have questions, you can ask using the comment box

Lagos State University, partnered by some universities and collaborating institutions has won $2,496,128.00 partnership grant in the October 2019 Competition of the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, Canada.
The Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) is the federal research funding agency of the Canadian Federal Government that promotes and supports postsecondary-based research and research training in the humanities and social sciences. The announcement was disclosed on the SSHRC website
https://www.sshrc-crsh.gc.ca/results-resultats/recipients-recipiendaires/2020/partnership_grants_2020-subventions_partenerial_2020-eng.aspx?fbclid=IwAR01HIFqwpOlPxlWNqdF3s3hqvuQxhUsKqfECbjpYosO4g4f3bb1f7WAaFc

The winning proposal titled “Vulnerability to Viability (V2V): Global Partnership for Building Strong Small-Scale Fisheries Communities”, had as lead applicant Dr. Prateep Nayak of the University of Waterloo and Prof. Akintola, S.L and Dr. Fakoya, K.A of the Department of Fisheries, of Lagos State University as co-applicants.

According to the team, “the goal of the partnership is to critically examine factors and conditions contributing to the vulnerability of the small-scale fisheries (SSF), and to work with SSF communities and other key actors to enhance their viability.

“We use the term viability not just in an economic sense but also to include social, political, and ecological aspects of SSF. Transitioning from vulnerability to viability (V2V) is an area of study that has not been adequately explored

To do so, our partnership brings together a diverse team of experts (scientists, practitioners, policy and community actors) from 30 Universities, 7 government and research institutions, and 14 non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and civil society organizations (CSOs) to form a “V2V Global Partnership.”

The LASU team also expressed gratitude to the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Olanrewaju, A. Fagbohun, SAN, NPOM for the support it received during the proposal stage and for providing the conducive environment that makes LASU participation compelling.
The Vice Chancellor, Prof. Olanrewaju Adigun Fagbohun, SAN, NPOM, on his part, congratulates members of the team, on their success and urges them to optimally utilise the grant to solve identified problems.

Congratulations!
