The prestigious University of Lagos popularly known as UNILAG is known
for having a large number of applicants each year for admission into the
school. For the 2015/2016 UNILAG post-utme screening, more 30,000
candidates have applied via JAMB for the Post UTME screening.
The format of UNILAG post utme exam (number of questions per subject) is as follows:
English Language = 15 Questions
Maths = 15 Questions
Current Affairs =10 Questions
Total = 40 Questions
For instance:
if you scored 290 in UTME and went on to score 70 in POST UTME,your aggregate score will be calculated thus:
UTME Score = 290/8 =36.25
Post UTME Score = 70/2 =35
Aggregate Score =36.25 + 35 =71.25%
Don’t get confused, it can be quite understoodd that the post utme questions is 40. You might want to ask, how then is it possible for me to score 70 in post utme.
This is the simple magic UNILAG performs; whatever you score in post utme over 40 will be rounded up to 100, that is it will rounded up to percentage. Let’s say for example you score 20/40. It will be the same as 20/40 multiply by(*) 100/1 which is equal to 50/100.
What ever is gotten over 100 is what will be divided by 2 to get your final post utme score before combining to get the aggregate as described above.
Your aggregate score will be measured against the cut off mark of your chosen course.
The cut off marks (required aggregate scores) for all courses will be published weeks after the post utme exams.
Now you might be wondering the actual number that will be admitted for each course. One cannot categorically tell the exact number, let’s just assume a rough but reasonable estimate.
UNILAG will admit at least 50 to 150 students per department. Few
courses will go beyond 150 students. Most courses will admit between
80-100 students. The reason for this quite small number when compared to
the large number of applicants per department is due to limited
facilities to meet up with the NUC standard if too many students are
taken.
Here are the statistics:
Some of these students may gain admission into the Institution, and at the point of their clearance, they are sent home just because they do NOT meet the basic requirements to be admitted you don’t want that to happen to you right? That is why all applicants who apply for Admission into UNILAG are usually advised to read this before making the school their choice.
