Tips To Pass University Of Ibadan Post UTME
Everything you need to know about the University of Ibadan Post UTME and how to pass excellently well will be discussed in this article, and you are encouraged to leave a comment if you have questions.

UI admission aggregate is determined by JAMB score and Post-UTME score i.e.( JAMB score/8) + (Post UTME score/2). However, you must have met the O’level criteria before you can be offered admission.

Firstly, before you can be invited to write PUTME, you must have scored at least 200 in JAMB. And a higher score like 250 and above is suitable for candidates who want to study competitive courses at the University of Ibadan.

I have discovered that candidates who fail UI Post JAMB were unaware of tips to succeed in the exam. And because of the level of failure, I have decided to write success tips for candidates who want to write University of Ibadan Post JAMB.

You may like to read: 8 steps to pass post Jamb of any school with ease

Tips
- The test is Paper-based against the computer-based in some universities in Nigeria
- You have 90 minutes to answer 100 questions
- You will be given a practice question during registration, and some questions out of it will come out. Expect something like 6-10 questions from the practice questions.
- The same subject combination you wrote in JAMB is the same you will write in UI PUTME
- No calculator is allowed
- You’ll be tested with 25 questions from each subject
Source of the quote below: Nairaland.com by Nltaliban

Make sure you study and practice the “practice questions” and understand everything therein.

Look out for the topics in the practice questions and read on them from the textbooks.

Get Lamlad textbooks and study even with the questions at the end of each chapter. It is because they always collect the question papers back from candidates.

Plan on how you’re going to answer your questions and on the order at which you’ll answer your questions before your examination.

Learn to skip questions you don’t know. But you should be careful about how you go about it.

Please avoid using too much of eraser and don’t let your shadings be rough and too thick. Your answer sheets will be marked by a programmed computer so you should be extra careful.

Please come with a very simple wristwatch to be time conscious.

If you’re an average student like me, do not make the mistake of starting with physics or mathematics. You’ll spend most of your time on it, and by the time you’ll get to biology or English, you might not remember the past tense of “come.”

Please try your possible best to avoid any unnecessary brainstorming. Often, last minutes brainstorming will leave you confused and make you feel inferior to the person you’re better than because of the way some people can defend wrong answers.

Lastly, commit everything to God in prayer.

There is no other way to succeed than to prepare adequately for it. Securing admission into the University of Ibadan is very competitive because of the high volume of applicants seeking admission into the school.

So you must do everything possible to pass the UI screening exercise.

UI Admission Cut Off Mark for Each Department 2024

The management has released the University of Ibadan (UI) admission cut-off mark into different undergraduate programme for 2024 admission. The UTME minimum score is 200 for all the programmes offered in the school. This is one of the criteria for partaking in the school admission screening exercise.

Prospective students who have checked their PUTME scores can now check their department cut-off mark to determine whether they can be admitted.

Departmental Minimum Mark in Pictures

The cut-off mark by each department is in the image below. It is divided into merit, catchment, and ELDS (Educationally Less Developed States). Once you meet this minimum point, you will be offered admission.

The list of ELDS in Nigeria includes: ADAMAWA, BAUCHI, BAYELSA, BENUE, BORNO, CROSS RIVER, EBONYI, GOMBE, JIGAWA, KADUNA, KANO, KATSINA, KEBBI, KOGI, KWARA, NASARAWA, NIGER, PLATEAU, RIVERS, SOKOTO, TARABA, YOBE, ZAMFARA.

The above states are given special consideration during admission, reflected in the released cut-off mark. JAMB approves this consideration.

This is to inform candidates that recommendation for admission will be based on the aggregate score obtained from the JAMB score and Post UTME score. The JAMB score and Post UTME score will be scaled down to 50 each, and the scores’ summation is the aggregate score.

Candidates are, therefore, advised to check their dashboard for their aggregate scores. This applies to only candidates who scored 50 and above in the Post UTME screening.

How to gain admission into the University of Ibadan

University of Ibadan is the first university in Nigeria and it was established in 1948. Her mission is academic excellence geared towards meeting societal needs.

UI undergraduate admission is purely on merit. However, being offer admission into any tertiary institution especially UI admission is not an easy job, hard work is required in order to be offered admission into your desired course.

University of Ibadan, UI is the best university in Nigeria and that is what makes the university one of the most chosen universities by applicants in JAMB. Due to this, the requirements for admission into UI is of high standard when compared to other universities.

That said, you must meet all the UI admission requirements before you can stand a chance of being offered admission into the institution.

The unfortunate scenerio I have seen is that many students are only wishing to study in UI without giving the required effort, smartness, and intelligent needed to gain admission into the school. For you to gain admission into UI there is a need for you to count the cost before you embark on the journey. If you desire to study any of the course below it is important to be aware of the requirements and be ready to meet them.

The courses I will discuss their admission requirements in this article are Medicine and Surgery, Pharmacy, Electrical / Electronics engineering, Mechanical engineering, Nursing, Civil engineering, Architecture e.t.c. And the reason is that they are courses with the highest number of applicants in JAMB.

Download free post-UTME past questions and read tips on how to pass post-UTME

Different schools with different requirements and the level of competition also differs for each school. Below are the admission requirements for certain courses in UI.

Courses Offer and Admission Requirements

I will discuss some of the courses offered at the University of Ibadan and this will help you gain insight into their admission criteria. The truth is that the competition is high but you can be offered admission if you can understand the point I will be discussing below.

This is one of the institutions that students like to choose as their first choice to study Medicine and Surgery, Nursing, Pharmacy, Electrical engineering, Mechanical engineering, Civil engineering, e.t.c.

Your WASSCE results must be relatively okay: you must have at least Mathematics(B), English (B), Chemistry (B), Biology (B), Physics (B), and any other subject for your chance to be relatively high.

This means that you must sit tight and prepare very well for your WASSCE. Your preparation must start now.

UTME is the next exam to sit down for and you must be able to score relatively high in the exam. I will advise students to aim at scoring above 250 for you to have good standing.

The reason why you need to score high in JAMB is because UTME score takes 50 percent of the admission percentage distribution. In the same vein, your UI post UTME score must be relatively high because it makes up the remaining 50 percent.

Recommended: UI departmental Cut off mark

Medicine and Surgery

University of Ibadan college of medicine admission requirements: below are the requirements for admission into University of Ibadan college of medicine.

UTME subject: Physics, Chemistry, and Biology.

UTME score for Medicine: I will suggest that you have 250 and above in JAMB

UI Direct Entry requirement: Most times it is 15 points to study medicine but sometimes it can come down to 14 points. Also UI accepts second class upper in medical related course.

Electrical, Mechanical, Civil Engineering

UTME score: I advise students to aim at scoring above 250 for you to have good standing. This isn’t the cut-off mark but just the opinion of the writer.

UTME subject: Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics.

WASSEC result: Five SSCE credit passes in English Language, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and one science subject.

A level requirement: Most times it is 13-16 points but this subject to change.

WASSCE result: UI requires 5 ‘O’ level credits in Government/History, English. Language and three other subjects plus at least a pass in Mathematics. UI accepts Science subjects with a pass in Mathematics.

UTME SUBJECTS: Any three subjects.

My advice to students intending to study psychology is that they should make sure they have good WASSCE result and UTME scores(preferably 240 and above) for them to have a better chance.

University of Ibadan undergraduate admission is purely on MERIT and ELDS (Educationally Less Developed State). If you have a good result in your WASSCE, UTME and Cambridge ‘A LEVEL’ for the UTME and DE students, you will be offered admission. Moreover, UI does take into consideration candidates that come from ELDS, and their UI cut-off mark is always a little bit lower than those on merit.

Admission portal for undergraduates

UI admission portal for undergraduates is a place where you get all the required information on UI admission. Furthermore, you can monitor your admission process through the portal.

NOTE

For students interested in writing Cambridge A level, you have a great task ahead. Though the task isn’t as difficult as some students perceive it to be, You must target AT LEAST 15 points: AAB. My advice to students has been to target 16 points(AAA) for them to be in a very good position. Cambridge A level will enable you to secure admission into 200 level in any institution of your choice. It is also an avenue to strengthen your academic muscles.

For DE students who want to use Cambridge A level result

The sale of Jamb DE forms usually kicks off a few days after the Cambridge international exams i.e. around mid-June.

The form is bought and filled online and a slip would be printed out, one which needs to be photocopied & would be needed for the admission processing.

All that’s left is to follow up on information concerning Admission processing on the school’s website. Application for DE candidates usually comes after the UTME candidates are done with theirs. Instructions on what documents to submit at the school’s Admission office such as the A level statement of result, the Jamb slip, and O level are updated on the school’s website. The process of application and documents needed online are also updated on the site.

After the whole online application stress all there is is to wait for the admission list and further screening in school.

For the points required in various courses, it’s usually unknown and undisclosed. Except for people who’ve got insiders in Admission processing units who may know the required points. The school drafts the required points after screening the number of applicants in various departments, the performance of candidates and the number of candidates they want in each department. But over the years there’s been a range of required points for various courses. UI direct entry for medicine it’s usually 15 or 16 points in A level result. However, as at last year (2016) it came down to 14.

The is article is ENTIRELY THE OPINION of the writer. This article is a product of my experience and observation of University of Ibadan admission for up to two decade. I believe the point made here will give you some hedge over other students in order to gain admission into the school.

UI Sessional Examination Results Analysis 2016/2017 News

The news released on the University of Ibadan website on 21 March 2018 has affirmed the reason why post UTME must be embraced by all universities in Nigeria.

According to their sessional examination results analysis, below is what their analysis finds out about the quality of students being admitted through UI Post-UTME:

“It is worth mentioning here that the graduating students of the 2016/2017 Class were admitted into the University of Ibadan between 2011/2012 and 2013/2014 academic sessions, depending on the specific course of study, through a very rigorous and highly competitive Post-UTME.

Empirical and verifiable data available at the University of Ibadan have shown convincingly that there has been a considerable improvement in the quality of students admitted into the University since the Post-UTME template was introduced during the 2005/2006 admission exercise.

The withdrawal rate at the end of the 100 level at the University of Ibadan had dropped from an all-time high of 12% before the introduction of Post-UTME to less than 2% (i.e. Success Rate of 98%) during the 2015/2016 session.”

Below is what the management of University of Ibadan noted in the examination results

A total of 142 of our Final Year students earned a First Class Honours degree. The Faculties of Science and Technology tied in the overall best position with 37 students in each of the Faculties finishing with First Class. Twenty one of our students in the Faculty of Law earned First Class; this is the best ever result by the Faculty since its establishment 38 years ago.

The number of first class from other Faculties include Arts (16), Agriculture (8), The Social Sciences (8), Education (7) Renewable Natural Resources (4), Public Health (2), Basic Medical Sciences (1), and Clinical Sciences (1).

Unfortunately, there was no Post-UTME for the candidates admitted during the 2016/2017 session. This has been largely responsible for the comparatively poor performance of our students admitted during the last session

It was also observed that students in the science-based disciplines in particular did not perform too well, with the pass rate being lowest at 67.5% at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. On the other hand, the Humanities-based discipline posted better results, with the best coming from the Faculty of Law at 99.2%.

For the entire University, the overall success rate averaged 85%.

Some 328 students, representing 10.9% of the total, have been advised to withdraw from the University for their inability to meet the minimum condition approved by Senate. In other words, one out of every nine of the 100 Level students did not meet the minimum condition to retain their studentship.

Moreover, another set, comprising 115 students, were unable to meet Faculty requirements and have been advised appropriately to apply for change of course.
