This is rubbish

Bolustic:
I don't think this is good enough considering the high rate of examination malpractices in O'Level exams. If you happen to mark WAEC/NECO scripts, you'd know most secondary school students, don't own their results they cheated.

That apart, using UNILORIN or UNILAG who get close to, if not more than, 90,000 applicants a year with just a meagre 7,000 available admission slots, if the points grading system was adopted and let's say 45,000 qualified. What would the FG do to the other remaining 38,000 successful applicants.

Post UTME is by far the most credible exam right now.

Besides, why is it so hard to pay for post utme? The same people who will spend lavishly on Aso Ebi, Owanbe, Sallah, Alcohols, clubbing and other frivolities should be able to spend on education without complaints

Rubbish. Then they raise the cut off points higher. Can't candidates also pass the post utme that way if it were a fair system? Why support a system that deliberately fails students as better. Putme is a nightmare. And if U prefer that why have U entered university before now since the way U analysed it, you must have written it at least once, but failed.

musty001:
What about students that are awaiting results?
How is there points gonna be calculated?
Since points are been allocated to the O level results

. There is no admission for those with awaiting results.

devilmarycry,
our mr nairaland,vote for him and let ur vote count,vote d freshest dude ever

This country ehn, one step forward three steps backward. This point system is nothing but a disaster. It is only going to encourage examination malpractices more. Most of these mushrooms private secondary schools that write WAEC for their students are just being told to do better. I know very many students who passed with good grades but could not defend them.

PLease is the o level result the one we submited during registration or the one to be submited later during screening

This is wicked

How many gets above 300 in JAMB to get 34/60 points?

This government is fighting and breeding corruption at the same time.

Fine, if not many scored over 300 the few that did will get the admission first. People like you are only sad that back door arrangements for entry into the university just got more difficult. I commend jamb, but if this move makes you want to wail, you fit come collect handkerchief.

CONFAM!

very poor system. This will be beneficial to the private school pupils and detrimental to public schl students. The private schls will do their best to ensure that their students obtain max points by paying WAEC officials. I wont be surprised to see lazy students claiming all A's. Most govt schls on the other hand do not pay WAEC officials and as such i expect their results to be very poor. At the end of the day, a rich man's child has greater chances of getting into the universities. But i believe at the end God will make it easy for the poor farm boy to get the admission despite all odds.

bejeiodus:
Many people have comprehension problem in Nigeria. JAMB is not using any point system. The image below is what JAMB is proposing.

Thanks bro for the info.
People just dey carry fake news.

STUDENTS, read your books... The time spent on nairaland waiting for 'FTC', Spacebooking, Buhari vs GEJ - spend it on ur books.

Its never been easy to study, this days your textbooks are over-revised, your exam questions are all shuffled past questions and over-simplified,yet u all complain.

No easy way to success. READ, STUDY and BE FOCUSED

Whats the meaning of 180-200 : 20-23 Which one is which?

180-185 20 186-190 21 191-195 22 196-200 23

RingimKabir:
The best thing I will love Buhari to do is to simply SCRAP this EVIL thing called JAMB! It's nothing but a SCAM!





Like if you support my idea.

Thats a bad idea.

University of ibadan started this 2005/2006...

The idea is good because so many parameters is to be checked and considered before admission and there is now respect for WAEC by JAMB.

Ok

Tons of people wrote JAMB with awaiting result... Jeez... This isn't fair sha, at least during registration, they would have not given room for candidates with awaiting results...

CowBoy am only lamenting for a jambite like you.
I am currently working as a manager in a company.

The system isnt just right. DOnt you think this will encourage more backdoor arrangments for WAEC and JAMB?

Education is becoming difficult and discouraging.

I remember UI used a similar method which was better WAEC=60, JAMB=40....
I think JAMB as 60 marks is just too much

Pls someone that want to study computer engineering, what are the four subjects he will write in jamb?

UI used this below:

JAMB score/10 = 40 marks
WAEC : A= 12, B2=5, B3=4, C4=3, C5=2, C6=1.....= 60marks

I just think this method will not be fair on those who have 2 sittings

[size=14pt]the long and short of the whole story is, very few will be given admission into government universities, and due to the high cost of dollars coupled with the stress of schooling abroad, parents will have no option than to send their wards to private universities in Nigeria!

in other words, private universities will have a big boom - which of course have been the reason for all these scheming and rigmarole, and of course ojerinde will retire a very wealthy man cause i heard he has stakes in majority of the private universities and secondary schools in Nigeria.



if you have the money, pls invest in education - especially universities and polytechnics!








there is another angle to this thou, this method will discourage a lot of people from seeking university education. many will get discouraged after several admission failures and will opt out for technical education or what we call 'handwork' at a point there will be a leveling - in the sense that university degree will gain back its respect and the masses will begin to appreciate the fact that university education is not for all. sometime in the future it will create a balance - the dead middle class will recreate itself and the economy will balance up just like it is in china where only few attend university while majority are given technical education.

Hmmmm....I used the same method to enter Chemistry in 2007

The method wasnt tough for competitive courses like Pharma, MBBS, Elect-Elect, Econs...

PostUTme was just fair for all.....very transparent in UI.

cool
