How To Calculate UNICAL Post UTME Aggregate Score

For example, in order to calculate your UNICAL Post UTME aggregate score, the formula purportedly adopted by the institution is the sum of your UTME SCORE divided by 8 and your POST UTME SCORE divided by 2.

For instance:

If you scored 290 in UTME and went on to score 70 in POST UTME, your aggregate score will be calculated thus:

UTME Score = 290/8 =36.25
Post UTME Score = 70/2 =35

Aggregate Score =36.25 + 35 =71.25%

How To Calculate UNICAL Screening Score

If you participated in UNICAL  Post UTME screening exercise, this is how to calculate their post UTME score aggregate below:-

To get your UNICAL Post UTME score aggregate; divide your UTME score by 8 and your post UTME score by 2.

For example, Sarah scored 250 in Jamb and 55% in PUTME.

250 divided by 8 = 31.25. 55%

divided by 2 = 27.5 .

So, 31.5 plus 27.5 = 59%

As earlier mentioned above, there is no general formula in use when calculating Post UTME score. Most higher Institutions adopt a formula that best suits their purpose for the screening exercise.
