How To Calculate UNILAG Post UTME Cut Off Mark
UNILAG uses a specific grading system for O’Level results. The grade points are as follows:
A1 = 4.0
B2 = 3.6
B3 = 3.2
C4 = 2.8
C5 = 2.4
C6 = 2.0
Step 1: Calculate Your O’Level Score
Let’s say you have the following grades in the five relevant subjects: A1, B3, B2, C4, and B2.
That gives you:
4.0 (A1) + 3.2 (B3) + 3.6 (B2) + 2.8 (C4) + 3.6 (B2) = 17.2 points
Step 2: Divide Your UTME Score by 8
If you scored 256 in UTME:
256 ÷ 8 = 32
Step 3: Add Your POST UTME Score (out of 30)
Assume you scored 22 out 30
22 plus 30 equals 52
