Now that the 2025 JAMB UTME results have been released, many candidates are celebrating their high scores, while others are disappointed with their performance. However, it’s crucial to understand that a high JAMB score doesn’t guarantee admission, just as a low JAMB score doesn’t automatically disqualify you.
We’ve seen candidates with 250+ scores who failed to secure admission and had to retake JAMB, while others with scores below 200 gained admission without rewriting the exam. This proves that your JAMB score alone isn’t the ultimate admission determinant.
Critical Questions Every 2025 JAMB Candidate Should Ask
To improve your chances of securing admission, consider the following:
- What was my school’s cut-off mark last year?
- What was the cut-off mark for my intended course?
- Do I need a change of course or institution?
- What’s the school’s Post-UTME screening process like?
- How can I prepare effectively for Post-UTME?
Answering these questions will guide your next steps toward securing admission in 2025/2026.
Key Admission Strategies for 2025 JAMB Candidates
- Consider Polytechnic Options: If your score aligns better with polytechnic cut-off marks, don’t hesitate to apply unless you’re willing to retake JAMB.
- Start Post-UTME Preparation Early: Don’t wait until your school announces Post-UTME form sales before studying. Access Post-UTME past questions for your preferred institution now.
- Stay Updated: Follow Myschool and other admission portals for the latest 2025/2026 admission updates.
Wishing you all admission success in 2025!
