Yoruba people can be funny at times. Whats all these unnecessary rites in the US. Is it that there is high concentration of yoruba men there? whats the essence? Firemen are even in the prawl given some funny impressions. If they complain, you will tag it racism. I understand the young man is trying to inject fun into the whole obaship instead of sitting in his palace and sleeping with ten wives and eating their food. But this is becoming a ridicule

sorry, buh you ain't making sense....

Post utme scraping is a big mistake made by the federal government. . I don't have much to say but to highlight three major reasons why it is not good..

it will encourage more corruption in the educational sector
The federal government said that through the scraping of post utme the rate of corruption will reduce, but with this scraping corruption will increase. Let's take for instance a student score 230 in jamb all what will happen next is for the person to pay a huge sum of money to the school board and you that score high in jamb is on the boarder to be deported to your home because admission is not sure for you. And by so doing the money that the FG doesn't want this people to have they will be raking in twice the amount they have been getting before.

dull candidates will be offered admission
In this situation unwanted candidates will be given admission. Something happened in University of Ibadan some years back, a guy scored 285 in jamb and in his ssce result he has about 3A, 2B and the rest are credit, when he went for post utme it was oral and with your ssce result. What disqualified this gentle man was that he cannot distinguish between legislative and judiciary, and as an art student going for masscom. some people that sat for jamb and scores high scored it base on luck, if call to reseat for it is another problem on the person. if at all the admission is given that person will be on the verge of going home later with nothing.

it really help
In this aspect it made me remember when my brother sat for his Jamb he scored low but reach the cut off mark of Abu Zaria, to study pharmacy but on his own he lost hope about to change institution and course, but my mum stood on her that she want him to go to Abu, luckily for my brother he scored 265 in the post utme. and that is how we have pharmacist in my family. If not for post utme no admission for him because students that scored 300, 270 and 240 cannot be there and him that scored 219 will be given admission.


Bonus
Only the rich will get admission, because they will use money and buy there way in and the less privileged will be told to come another year.



Will this few point, my fellow nairalander it is a big mistake to scrap post utme.

eehe..op I tap into your sis blessing oh....jamb do me strong thing...also pharmacy...
putme must be done...

Why Post Ume MUST be scrapped completely.


This is not a response thread to Matolysis's, as I find his interesting but bereft of facts and also lacks awareness of the current tertiary admission process. No apologies.


In our time it was strictly JAMB , if you score high, the higher your chances. Though there was malpractice then, JAMB has improved today especially with Computer based testing introduction.
I have wards who passed through the PUME process, which is significantly different from our time, for example, now many schools do not invite second choice for their screening and this is at variance with JAMB procedure. I am also an insider of sorts in the PUME process, and I'll use the Uniben scenario to give reasons why PUME is illegal and must be scrapped and defaulting schools prosecuted.


1. Post UME infringes on the sole power right of Jamb/UTME to give admissions. If you go through the JAMB act, it states that only the body has the right to conduct exams after charging fees, give undergraduate admissions, carryout placements in Universities, Polytechnics and Colleges of Education. The universities are only supposed to send their requirements and preferences. The only exception is Post graduate admissions. But today Universities charge another amount , sometimes higher than JAMB's to conduct a parallel exam clearly defying the act, and give admissions using methods known to no one else. Uniben announced admission screening fee of 2000 and optional 1000 for past questions. But the reality is that, processing Uniben PUME/ ASE 2016 costs 3550. There is no option there, it just displays this amount and asks for MasterCard/Verve details.



2. Secondly, Post UME is not transparent, it is even more fraud prone than JAMB. CBT has greatly reduced fraud, eliminating text message answers, buying answers online and impersonation. We now have biometric check in and check out, and CBT even makes the exam easier to invigilate as candidates are forced to stare at their screens and nothing else. A bonus is the availability of system calculator which wasn't totally available in the era of pencil test.
BUT Pume is not even standardized, no preparation syllabus, some schools purposely set questions from A-Level just to be wicked and reduce number of successful people, others are known for giving very little time. And at the end they just send admission notification without pasting any list publicly and denying some admission even after surpassing the JAMB cutoff.



3. Post UME introduces avenues for special candidates getting better courses. Special candidates refers to Royal father's recommendees , governor's candidates , VC's candidates, staff children and state of origin waivers etc These sets of people would score less than others and must get admitted , in many cases get their course of choice.
In Uniben, to enter the college of Medicine, staff kids have their cutoff 10marks below regular cut off. So while a normal candidate aims for 70, they'll aim for 60. After taking the number of staff kids they want, the rest is filled with merit and government/royal candidates. And they all wrote the same JAMB. And the non staff candidates who fall under 60 < x < 70 are pushed to pharmacy and Life Sciences.
That is one reason why they do not release cutoff before results, as they need to fit in their people first and adjust and that's why majority of the post ume era medical graduates are children of doctors and professors; Not because Medicine runs in their veins but because corruption runs instead. There have also been reports of score upgrade in different schools including UNIBEN.
And That is what gives rise to fraudsters, result checkers and predators who take advantage of candidates giving them fake admission. And the school waits till final year exams before publishing lists of fake students, meanwhile they've been collecting school fees from 100L.



4. Post UME destroys the JAMB score. For instance , someone who scored 280 in JAMB would have his score divided by 8 giving 35 and this will be added to half the PUME score. Another person who scored 240 would see his score transformed to 30.. only 5 marks difference. Assuming the second guy scores 70 in PUMe and the first guy scores 60, after dividing by two and adding to both Jamb scores, the two aggregate scores would be equal! The PUME now more weighted than JAMB. That's why it is possible to "pass 220 and not enter school".
One would expect that the PUME score is the one divided and transformed after all it is the illegal exam!



5. PUME makes it difficult for Jamb to monitor admissions. An admission body that is relegated in its own game. One would expect that at this time parents would clamour for schools to start pasting their admission lists with raw scores attached. not a case of someone with 53 given Law and another person with 65 reading Foreign languages when they both put Law as first choice.
Jamb is still a major exam that can never be replaced by the schemes of money-for-grades lecturers.
Some may argue that Jamb scores are lower than students expect. This is because of Item Response Psychometric testing method, which is why people talk about negative marking etc. This method does not aggregate all the questions gotten correct, instead questions carry different marks depending on the set difficulty and depending on how many people answer that question.
And PUME has seen schools flooded with kids without emotional intelligence and they can't fend for themselves, they rush through and pass out and it doesn't even seem like they went to school.

I had to leave this thread in annoyance..I'll have be the FTC....that your no 5 is almost the dumbest thing I've ever heard..like really?psychometric what?jamb can't even explain the isssh....without putme do you know much duffers would be in unis....like this last jamb..I tell you 80% saw answers before sitting...I wrote the exam so I know... and now you want the exam supposed to weed them out scrapped..for real?all schools have their merit lists..even if jamb select students... there'll still be supplementary list...
just tell us....una be jamb agent.....I no go talk much cuz I see you are learned and older

Why is the op nobody?btw i'm not seeing emoji options when commenting fa

lol..can relate to almost all..

aaha..oga you wan form hitlist for them?

eph12:

I don't have a problem with whether they scrap it or not but I don't see the difference. The school can still manipulate the results or admission list if they want to. If jamb is able to get their act right and conduct exams that are leak proof why should post ume still be considered? These schools are just using this pume to generate funds that's all.

like you said...then postume should still hold till jamb is credible...

joe4real12:
Op, it seems you're writing about something u know little about. Or are you a lecturer and you just realised you've lost a source of income? The fraud in post UTME is colossal and must be scrapped.

Remember the Rape case of Dr. Baruwa.

Such cases will become rampant when you give too much power to universities and other tertiary institutions.
Post UTME exams is a fraud.

and jamb is honest abi

kyrios:
What is this one saying?
Back then you only write jamb and gbam you get admission but when jamb became questionable they introduced post jamb and that jamb is back on its feet post jamb should go na abi
In developed countries you only write SATs that's all anyone that doesn't tighten his or her belt is on his own like say them no dey bribe official for post jamb sef

hear yourself...se na you brought jamb back on its feet??I'm sure neither did you write this year's jamb nor do you know about it....I'm sure their has never been that kinda error since jamb's inception....post utme is needed this year like ever
