SOME Vice-Chancellors and the Academic Staff Union of Universities have rejected the decision of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board to peg admission cut-off mark at 120 for universities and 100 for polytechnics, monotechnics and colleges of education. https://www.google.com.ng/amp/punchng.com/vcs-ASUU-reject-120-cut-off-mark-for-varsity-admission/amp/ 7 Likes

The truth is that since most states in the south started complaining against high cut off marks for their indigenes while their northen counterparts get very low cut offs for the same course and school, jamb instead of raising the uniform cut off to a level that will make the north work a bit harder, they in the spirit of tribal sentiments lowered the cut off to the 'northern standard' even when they know it will destroy our already deteoriating educational standard. The day we stop doing favoritism towards the north who have refused to catch up with the south and start doing things by merit is the day we'll start moving forward as a nation 87 Likes 12 Shares |

The Academics know the truth. 120/400 is way too low and ridiculous for the sensible mind. In my opinion,it is outrageously mediocre at best. 9 Likes 4 Shares |

godwinony:Let's stop deceiving ourselves about northerners this, northerners that. When I was seeking admission into the OAU with 265 UTME score to study pharmacy some years back, I couldn't get admission because the cut was set at 270 by the OAU Senate while the cut off mark for medicine and surgery was set at 280. Did you know that my former classmate in the secondary school in Osogbo was given admission into the OAU same year to study medicine and surgery with UTME score of 230? And we're both yoruba! My point is this: what is the essence of setting high cut off marks for various courses only to be taking candidates with low UTME scores but who have connections or money through the backdoor just to put other hardworking students at disadvantage? This personal experience that I just shared is a common knowledge to all. It's nothing new and it's not going to stop. I'm a brilliant student during my days, but why would I continue to support practices that unjustly put me at disadvantage? Let everyone be given same chance. 22 Likes 2 Shares |

However, the Vice-Chancellor of the Christopher University, Ogun State, Prof. Friday Ndubuisi, said the new admission benchmark would have no negative implication on the quality of education. He said, “This is not an imposition. The cut-off mark is a minimum benchmark for admission. This idea of taking the UTME every year without getting admission is worrying. About 1.6 million candidates sat for the examination this year and about 500,000 will beadmitted mostly because of the cut-off mark. Most universities will not go below 200, but with five credits obtained in two sittings, a person should be qualified for admission. This is, however, not an imposition. Universities still get to decide on whom to admit through the post-UTME.’’ 3 Likes 1 Share |

The Buhari led Fulani controlled Government are just trying to help their fellow Fulani JAMBITES who can not score up to 150 in JAMB In terms of performance states in the North East and North West always come out with the lowest scores in JAMB, So the Presidency has decided to lower the scores to accommodate these low scoring JAMBITES from the North 7 Likes |

For me, anyone scoring 120 has no business with University education because he/she is yet to grasp the fundamentals. 6 Likes |

I join them in rejecting 120 as cut off mark. Is our educational system going forward or backwards Are we not suppose to have the best students go into the universities All in the guise to accommodate some set of people who have refused to study hard and make it like others serious minded people all over the world. So, in 2008 a student needs to score 280 to study medicine while in 2017 all he needs is 120, are you kidding me Where is the standard of education going 9 Likes |
