How To Calculate UNIMED Aggregate Score

UNIMED calculates aggregate score using both your JAMB score and Post-UTME score.

The formula is:

• JAMB Score ÷ 8
• Post-UTME Score ÷ 2
• Add both together

So:

Aggregate Score = (JAMB ÷ 8) + (Post-UTME ÷ 2)

Here is the breakdown clearly:

Component	Calculation	Percentage
JAMB Score	Divide by 8	50%
Post-UTME Score	Divide by 2	50%
Total Aggregate	Add both results	100%

Example 1

Suppose you scored:

• JAMB = 280
• Post-UTME = 70

Calculation:

• 280 ÷ 8 = 35
• 70 ÷ 2 = 35

Aggregate Score:

• 35 + 35 = 70

Final aggregate = 70

Example 2

Suppose you scored:

• JAMB = 250
• Post-UTME = 60

Calculation:

• 250 ÷ 8 = 31.25
• 60 ÷ 2 = 30

Aggregate:

• 31.25 + 30 = 61.25

Final aggregate = 61.25

Quick Shortcut Table

JAMB Score	After Dividing by 8
200	25
220	27.5
240	30
260	32.5
280	35
300	37.5

Post-UTME Score	After Dividing by 2
50	25
60	30
70	35
80	40
90	45

Competitive Aggregate Scores in UNIMED

Course	Safe Aggregate Range
Medicine and Surgery	73+
Dentistry	64+
Nursing Science	60+
Physiotherapy	60+
Medical Laboratory Science	54+

These usually change yearly depending on competition.

Conclusion

Understanding the UNIMED 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 UNIMED Admission pursuit.
