After the just concluded JAMB 2015 CBT exam since March 21st,
2015, questions have re-surfaced about the UNILORIN'S Post-UTME
form, when it will be out, how it will be, etc.
Here is a compilation of what I think is necessary for you to know at
the moment:
1) To qualify for UNILORIN putme exam, you must have sat for any of
the O' Level exam either with the result released or awaiting and
already meet up with the school's minimum cut-off mark for your
course in JAMB.
2) UNILORIN post utme exam is a CBT exam, so be ready to face the
computer once more.
3) The question is going to be 50 in number which will last for only
25 minutes/30 minutes.
4) the questions can be categorized into 5 parts which are: Eng Lang.,
mathematics, Biology, General Question(with Geography having higher
priority) and Current Affairs.
5) Generally, UNILORIN doesn't have proportion in which the
questions are supplied to candidates which means a candidate may
have the afore-listed subjects in the proportion/ratio 20:10;5;7:8(i.e
Eng Lang.= 20, Mathematics=10, Biology=5, General Question=7,
Current Affairs=8) while another candidate will have his/her
combination in the ratio 15:4:8:17:6 and so on which means the
proportion varies from candidate to candidate but one thing is certain,
you will be provided with 50 questions in total.
6) UNILORIN does not test how far you know about the department or
faculty you are coming in for because they believe those ones have
been settled in your O' Level and you have also been tested in JAMB
so the post UTME is just a way to screen people by the institution, so
therefore, don't be surprised if you are a Law student and you sitting
next to an Engineering student sitting for the same exam.
7) No official date has been announced for the sale of the post-UTME
form by the school, but hopefully one month or more from the time of
this post.
8) It would be posted on the dailies, the school website or any of the
Nigerian student or educative site like www.earlygist.com.
9) No official price announced yet but it would be something between
N3000 and N4000 because last year it was N3000 while it was N2000
in the previous year.
10) The form will be purchased online on the school site using either
the Verve r Master Card. PLEASE NOTE THAT FORMS WILL NOT BE
SOLD OUTSIDE THE SCHOOL SITE LIKE JAMB FORMS.
11) The Form will be out on sale for two weeks.
12) As practice of all Nigerian Federal Universities, UNILORIN also give
priority to candidate in her catchment area than students outside its
catchment area, but you will have higher chances if you are from
Kwara State but with the highest possibility if you are from Ilorin. So
you should not be surprised if you score 220 in JAMB and 80% in
putme with no admission yet someone with 200 in JAMB and 60% in
putme gain admission.
13) UNILORIN catchment area are: The Middle Belt States which are
Kwara, Kogi, Niger, Benue, Nasarawa, etc but the South Western
States. Are als considered in some cases.
14) UNILORIN putme cut off mark is generally 50% except for the
highly competitive course which are between 60% to 70%. So if you
score anything less than 50% in the putme exam, forget about
UNILORIN.
15) All that is required of you on the day of the exam is your printout
and a pen to sign the attendance but remember to dress decently
because UNILORIN doesn't tolerate any form of indecent dressing.
16) Your result will be sent to you as text message at 8pm or so be
sure of the phone number you will provide while doing your
registration although you can as well check the result on the school
website.
17) a text message will be sent to you if you have being offered
admission or by checking the school website.
18) Religion is not used as a basis for admission into UNILORIN.
19) UNILORIN provide two centres for the putme exam which are the
lagos centre at Oba Akran Avenue and the other centre at the school
premises in Ilorin. You are to choose one of this centres for your
exam.
20) UNILORIN remedial will also have to sit for the putme because it
increases their chances of being offered their desired courses
although what actually qualify them for admission is meeting up with
the minimum 50% pass in their courses but this does not guarantee
that they would be offered their desired courses.
