The JAMB cut-off mark for tertiary institutions in Nigeria has been released for the 2024/2025 academic session. You must be curious to know the UTME cut-off score for your institution.

This article will show the latest JAMB cut off mark for Admission to Nigerian universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education.

Summary: JAMB has decided on the minimum cut off marks for 2024 UTME candidates. The cut-off score for federal and state universities in Nigeria is 160, for private universities is 140, for polytechnics and monotechnics is 120 and lastly, for colleges of education is 100.

JAMB cut-off mark for medicine and surgery

If you picked this course during your JAMB registration, I’m not trying to burst your bubble, but it’s competitive. You may meet the general cut-off marks for universities, but gaining admission may be difficult.

For example, someone who wants to study medicine in Nigeria scores 200 in JAMB. Such a candidate will be offered another course or no admission at all.

In my opinion and from my experience, JAMB cut-off mark for MBBS is 280. If you are applying for admission to schools like UI, OAU, UNILORIN, UNILAG, etc., aim for 300 and above.

Many young people in Nigeria want to become medical doctors due to the unemployment wahala in Nigeria and the prestige attached to the job.

Did JAMB cut off mark 2024 reduce?

The joint admissions and matriculation board may reduce or increase the cut-off mark this year depending on the following:

  1. The average JAMB score in 2024
  2. JAMB result statistics
  3. What the board agrees on after a meeting.

So, if it is reduced or aggregated, you will surely hear about it. The reduction of the scores is good news because this year, JAMB does not look good.

How to calculate admission cut-off mark
