How To Calculate EKSU Aggregate Score

Step 1: Calculate Your JAMB Contribution (60%)

Formula:

$\left(\frac{\text{JAMB Score}}{400}\right)\times 60$(400 JAMB Score​)×60

Example:

If your JAMB score is 280:

$\left(\frac{280}{400}\right)\times 60 = 42$(400280​)×60=42

So your JAMB contribution is: 42 points

Step 2: Convert Your O’Level Grades to Points

EKSU assigns points to your five relevant subjects.

Grade	Point
A1	8
B2	7
B3	6
C4	5
C5	4
C6	3
D7	2
E8	1
F9	0

Step 3: Add Your Best 5 Relevant Subjects

Example:

Subject	Grade	Point
English	A1	8
Mathematics	B2	7
Biology	B3	6
Chemistry	C4	5
Physics	C6	3

Total O’Level points:

$8+7+6+5+3=29$8+7+6+5+3=29

So your O’Level contribution is: 29 points

Step 4: Add Both Together

Formula:

$\text{Aggregate} = \text{JAMB Contribution} + \text{O’Level Points}$Aggregate=JAMB Contribution+O’Level Points

Using our example:

$42+29=71$42+29=71

Final EKSU Aggregate Score: 71

Conclusion

Understanding the EKSU Cut Off Mark is a very important first step towards your admission aim into the institution. This year’s accepted minimum is 180 and above and if you meet that, you can proceed to applying for the Post UTME and patiently continue with your EKSU Admission pursuit.
