The benchmark score is not the cut-off mark for admissions for all universities, the Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, explained during the ongoing policy meeting in Abuja.
The PUNCH reports that various institutions had sent their minimum benchmark scores to JAMB. Institutions such as Pan-Atlantic University, Lagos; Covenant University, Ogun state, Obafemi Awolowo University, Osun state and the University of Lagos were the only universities that recommended 200 and above.
Oloyede further cautioned Nigerians against news of JAMB setting cutoff marks.
“JAMB does not set cut-off mark. What we have is a minimum benchmark score that any university cannot go below. Different universities have their benchmark scores.”
