You want to know what cut off mark means?, don’t worry, I will explain in a way you will understand.

Cut off mark simply means a certain mark which candidates are expected not to score below if they want to be admitted for the particular year in view.

For example, if UNICAL sets its JAMB cut off mark as 300, then any student who scores below 300 should automatically start thinking of other options.

Generally, in cut off marks, you are expected to score above or get the exact cut off mark but you will agree with me that it is risky hanging on a knife’s edge.

I hope you now quite understand what cut off mark means right?

UNICAL is one of the top tertiary institutions in Nigeria and they try to maintain a certain standard. It is often said that if you cannot improve on the existing standard, keep the standard the way you found it. There is no way UNICAL will decide to beat their cut off mark down below their minimum cut off mark.

Therefore, if you an aspirant of UNICAL and you scored 150 and above, then you are in safe hands.

The minimum JAMB score requirement for UNICAL is 150 and you are expected to beat this cut off mark far above it so that your chances of getting admitted will increase.

This is because any school will want to admit those who scored 150 first when there are other students that scored 250.

In conclusion, if you want to be on the safe side, try to beat the cut off mark far above the normal cut off mark.

How Does UNICAL do their Screening?

• Dangote’s Top Secrets Of Success
• How to remember anything you have read
• How to study effectively and efficiently

After seeing all of UNICAL’s departmental cut off marks for the year , the next important question to ask is How UNICAL do their screening.

Basically, the University of Calabar does its admission screening in two phases.

The first phase involves aspirants who applied to study in UNICAL proceeding for the pre-screening exercise immediately it is being announced.

Usually, during this first phase, only two major documents are needed i.e SSCE Result and JAMB Registration print out.

UNILORIN cut off marks for academic session

However, as a note of warning, all candidates are advised to go their pre-screening venues or centers 30 minutes before time to avoid stories that touch the heart.

Finally, the second phase then comes along immediately you have been admitted into UNICAL to study any choice of course. However, at the second phase, you need to do proper screening and the documents usually needed include;

Birth Certificate or Age Declaration

Certificate of Local Government of Origin

Original copies of your credentials (certificates and statements of result)

Letter of good conduct from your village head or any responsible member of your community/or civil servant not below grade level 10 or equivalent in the private sector.
