JAMB Cut Off Mark For Petroleum Engineering In 2023

 

Studying Petroleum Engineering at any university in Nigeria requires meeting the required JAMB Cut off Mark, which is the minimum score one must achieve to be eligible for a particular program. Engineering courses, including Petroleum Engineering, are highly competitive in Nigeria, attracting a large number of applicants.

With over 20,000 students applying to study Petroleum Engineering, only a few hundred (around 2,000) will be admitted by the fifteen universities offering the program. The key factor that can improve your chances of admission is a high JAMB score. However, there are two aspects to consider regarding the JAMB Cut off Mark for Petroleum Engineering.

The first aspect is the cut off mark that allows you to proceed to the next stage of admission processing, which is the POST UTME enrollment. This cut off mark is the same for all courses within a particular university. The second aspect is the JAMB Cut off Mark that guarantees admission to study Petroleum Engineering, which varies among courses and universities.

It’s important to note that these two aspects are not the same. The JAMB Cut off Mark for POST UTME is consistent across courses within a university, while the JAMB Cut off Mark for admission into Petroleum Engineering differs among courses and universities.

To better understand these differences, let’s delve into the topic further. In this article, I will provide you with the necessary information about the JAMB Cut off Mark and how to secure admission into any university of your choice.

What is JAMB Cut Off Mark?

As explained in my previous article on JAMB Cut Off Mark for all courses and schools, “CUT OFF MARK” refers to the minimum score required to be eligible for a particular program. In the case of JAMB Cut off Mark, it is the minimum score JAMB candidates must achieve to participate in the Post UTME of their chosen university.

Any student who scores below this mark in JAMB cannot be admitted into any university in Nigeria unless they explore alternative admission pathways aside from JAMB.

Now that we understand the general concept of JAMB Cut off Mark, let’s focus on the JAMB Cut off Mark for Petroleum Engineering.

JAMB Cut off Mark for Petroleum Engineering

The JAMB Cut off Mark for participating in the Post UTME for Petroleum Engineering is 200. However, some universities, such as AAU (Ambrose Alli University), may accept a score of 180. Nevertheless, the minimum cut off mark for Petroleum Engineering in any university (except private universities) is 180.

Polytechnics accept lower JAMB scores for Engineering programs. So, if your score is below the minimum cut off mark, you can consider applying to a private university or a Polytechnic offering Petroleum Engineering.

It’s important to note that the likelihood of being admitted to study Petroleum Engineering with a JAMB score of 200 or 180 (depending on the university) is relatively low, approximately a 3 on a scale of 1 to 10.

However, having a low JAMB score does not mean you cannot be admitted to study Petroleum Engineering. Your JAMB score constitutes only 50% of your admission requirements. The remaining 50% is based on your performance in the Post UTME, O’ level exams (WAEC/NECO/NABTEB), or both, depending on the university’s aggregate grading system.

Since JAMB contributes 50% to your admission requirements, certain JAMB scores can significantly increase your chances of gaining admission, up to 70%.

JAMB Cut off Mark for Petroleum Engineering that Guarantees Admission

A JAMB score of 260 or higher is considered good enough to secure admission to study Petroleum Engineering at any university in Nigeria. With a JAMB score of 260 and above, your chances of being admitted to study Petroleum Engineering at a university of your choice are promising, approximately 70%.

The reasons behind this will be explained when I discuss how universities calculate the aggregate score for admission shortly.

How to Calculate Your Aggregate Score for Petroleum Engineering

Different universities (federal, state, and private) use various methods to compute the aggregate score for admission into the Petroleum Engineering department. Some universities consider both JAMB and Post UTME scores (e.g., the University of Benin), while others factor in JAMB and O’ level results (e.g., Ambrose Alli University). Some universities, like the University of Lagos, consider JAMB, Post UTME, and O’ level results to calculate the admission aggregate.

Regardless of the calculation method used by your chosen university, your JAMB score always carries the most weight, accounting for 50% of the total mark. To calculate your average score for Petroleum Engineering:

  • For schools using JAMB and Post UTME: Divide your JAMB score by 8, and your Post UTME score by 2. The sum of these two scores will give you your total average.
  • For schools using JAMB, Post UTME, and O’ level: Divide your JAMB score by 8, then add 30% of your Post UTME score and 20% of your O’ level score to make up the remaining 50%.

Based on the calculation pattern above, it is evident that your JAMB score carries the most weight. Hence, a high JAMB score is crucial for admission into competitive courses like Petroleum Engineering.

For instance, if you scored 260 in JAMB, dividing it by 8 would give you 32.5. The departmental cut off mark for Petroleum Engineering is usually not less than 60 in most universities. Therefore, with a JAMB score of 260, you only need to put in moderate effort to achieve the required cut off mark.

In Conclusion

A JAMB score of 260 or above is considered good enough to secure admission to study Petroleum Engineering at any university in Nigeria. Achieving this score significantly increases your chances of admission, with a success rate of approximately 70%.

By understanding the JAMB Cut off Mark and the calculation of aggregate scores, you can better navigate the admission process and increase your chances of studying Petroleum Engineering at your preferred university.
