For OAU (Obafemi Awolowo University) in 2025, the general cut-off mark for most undergraduate programs is 200 in the UTME (JAMB) exam. However, some competitive courses like Medicine and Law may require higher scores. A minimum of 25/40 in the Post-UTME is also generally expected, and the Post-UTME itself is a Computer-Based Test (CBT).
Here's a breakdown:
-
UTME (JAMB):A minimum score of 200 is generally required for eligibility to register for the Post-UTME.
-
Post-UTME:A score of 25/40 is expected in the Post-UTME exam.
-
OAU Aggregate Score:OAU uses a 50:40:10 ratio to calculate the aggregate score for admission: 50% from JAMB, 40% from Post-UTME, and 10% from O'Level results.
-
Eligibility vs. Admission:Meeting the cut-off marks and achieving a good aggregate score only makes you eligible for consideration for admission. It doesn't guarantee automatic admission.
-
Course-Specific Cut-Offs:Some courses, especially those considered highly competitive, may have higher cut-off marks than the general 200.
Therefore, aiming for a score higher than the general cut-off mark of 200 is recommended, especially for competitive courses.
