What is a Cut Off Mark?

In the Nigerian educational system, a cut off mark is the minimum score a candidate must attain in the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) conducted by JAMB to qualify for an institution’s internal screening exercise.

For UNIOSUN, there are two distinct categories of cut off marks:

1. The Institutional (General) Cut Off Mark: The minimum general JAMB score that makes you eligible to buy the post-UTME screening form.
2. The Departmental Cut Off Mark: The final aggregate percentage score required to secure admission into a specific course after combining your JAMB and O’Level grades.

• Medicine and Surgery (M.B.B.S)

How UNIOSUN Calculates Screening Scores

Osun State University uses a 60:40 ratio formula combining your UTME performance and O’Level grades. There is no independent Post-UTME physical examination; admission is determined strictly by this screening point evaluation.

Step 1: Calculate Your JAMB Percentage

Your JAMB score accounts for 60% of the aggregate total.

$$\text{JAMB Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{Your JAMB Score}}{400} \right) \times 60$$

Step 2: Calculate Your O’Level Percentage

Your five core O’Level subjects (including English and Mathematics) account for 40%. Points are attached to grades as follows:

• A1 = 8 points
• B2 = 7 points
• B3 = 6 points
• C4 = 5 points
• C5 = 4 points
• C6 = 3 points

Sum the points of your 5 core subjects (Maximum of 40 points).

Step 3: Combine the Scores

Final Aggregate Score = JAMB Percentage + O’Level Points

Meeting the cut off mark is just one phase of the procedure. You must clear these structural conditions:
