Securing admission into Nigerian universities involves a thorough understanding of the admission process, particularly how to calculate Olevel and J AMB score aggregate for admission 2024. This article breaks down the process into clear, manageable steps.
Understanding O Level grade pointsThe first step is calculating the O level grade points. Most Nigerian universities use a specific grading system to convert O level grades into points:
- A1: 6 points
- B2: 5 points
- B3: 4 points
- C4: 3 points
- C5: 2 points
- C6: 1 point
For example, if a student scores A1 in five subjects, their total points would be calculated as follows:
6 points5 subjects= 30 points
Calculating JAMB scoresThe JAMB score, which ranges from 0 to 400, is another critical component. To integrate this score into the aggregate, universities typically standardize it by dividing by 8. For instance, if a candidate scores 240 in JAMB , the calculation would be: 240/8 = 30 points.
