How to calculate the Post-UTME score?

To calculate your Post UTME score, it depends on the specific university, because each school uses its own formula. But the general method in Nigeria looks like this:

1. Know the Components

Most schools combine:

UTME (JAMB) score

Post UTME exam score (or screening score)

Sometimes O’level results (WAEC/NECO)

2. Common Calculation Method

🔹 Method 1 (Simple Average)

Some schools do:

\text{Aggregate} = \frac{\text{UTME score} + \text{Post UTME score}}{2}

Example:

UTME = 240

Post UTME = 60

(240 + 60) \div 2 = 150

🔹 Method 2 (Scaled UTME + Post UTME)

Some schools convert UTME to 50 and Post UTME to 50:

\text{UTME (out of 400)} \div 8 = \text{UTME (out of 50)}

Then:

\text{Aggregate} = \text{UTME (converted)} + \text{Post UTME score}

Example:

UTME = 240 →

Post UTME = 65

Final aggregate:

30 + 65 = 95

🔹 Method 3 (Including O’Level)

Some schools add WAEC/NECO points:

A1 = 6 points

B2 = 5 points

B3 = 4 points

C4 = 3 points

C5 = 2 points

C6 = 1 point

Then total everything together.

3. Important Tip

There is no single universal formula. Always check:

Your school’s official website

Admission brochure or screening guideline

📊 TASUED FORMULA (50:50 SYSTEM)

👉 JAMB = 50%👉 Post-UTME = 50%

Same breakdown:(JAMB ÷ 8) + (Post-UTME ÷ 2)

Example:JAMB: 265 → 33.13Post-UTME: 64 → 32

Aggregate = 65.13

📊 FUNAI AGGREGATE FORMULAYour aggregate score is calculated as:

(JAMB ÷ 8)+ (Post-UTME ÷ 2)

Example:JAMB: 200 → 200 ÷ 8 = 25Post-UTME: 60 → 60 ÷ 2 = 30

Aggregate = 55

This is what determines if you meet your departmental cut-off.
