What Is Post-UTME and Why Does It Matter?

After completing the JAMB UTME, candidates are required to participate in Post-UTME as part of the admission process for most Nigerian universities. The Post-UTME is designed to test candidates’ knowledge in areas relevant to their chosen course of study.

One of the most common questions prospective candidates ask is: How many subjects are written in the Post-UTME? This article provides clarity, along with actionable insights to help you prepare effectively.


How Many Subjects Are Written in Post-UTME?

The number of subjects written in the Post-UTME depends on the specific university and the course applied for. However, most universities structure their Post-UTME to cover 3 to 4 subjects, aligning with the core subjects required for your course in JAMB UTME.

Examples of Subject Combinations

  1. Science Courses: For courses like Medicine, Engineering, or Computer Science, candidates may be tested in:
    • Mathematics
    • Physics
    • Chemistry
    • Biology
  2. Arts and Humanities: For courses like Law, History, or Mass Communication, the subjects often include:
    • English Language
    • Literature in English
    • Government
    • CRS/IRS
  3. Social Sciences and Management: For courses like Economics, Accounting, or Political Science:
    • Mathematics
    • Economics
    • Government
    • English Language

Factors Influencing the Subjects in Post-UTME

  1. Your JAMB Subject Combination
    Most universities base their Post-UTME subjects on the combination you selected during JAMB registration.
  2. University Policies
    Some institutions, such as the University of Lagos (UNILAG) or Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), may include a General Knowledge section covering current affairs or logical reasoning.
  3. Chosen Course of Study
    Your chosen course determines the specific subjects you’ll be tested on, ensuring relevance to your field of study.

How to Prepare for Post-UTME Subjects

  1. Understand the University’s Format
    Research your preferred institution to understand their Post-UTME format. Universities like the University of Ibadan (UI) might focus heavily on aptitude tests, while others emphasize subject-specific questions.
  2. Revise Your JAMB Subjects
    Since the Post-UTME aligns closely with your JAMB UTME subjects, focus on revising those areas. Use your JAMB textbooks and past questions for preparation.
  3. Practice Time Management
    The post-UTME is typically time-bound, so practicing under timed conditions is essential.
  4. Focus on Current Affairs and past Questions
    Many universities include general knowledge questions in their post-UTME. Reading newspapers and practicing current affairs questions can give you an edge.

Key Differences Between JAMB and Post-UTME

Aspect JAMB UTME Post-UTME

Conclusion: Be Prepared and Stay Confident

If you’re unsure about the specific requirements of your university, visit their official website or contact their admissions office for accurate information.
