Agricultural Science Enters After O’Level at MAUTECH Fisheries
The O’level list names Biology outright, with no alternative offered, alongside Mathematics, English Language, Physics and Chemistry.
At UTME the wording changes to Biology or Agricultural Science, so a candidate who sat Agricultural Science finds a route only at the JAMB stage.
Direct Entry goes further still, accepting Biology, Botany or Agricultural Science as the second subject behind the compulsory Chemistry.
Chemistry is the one subject present on all three lists with nothing accepted in its place, which makes it the first thing to confirm.
Candidates entering through UTME need a minimum of 180 and above in their JAMB result for the 2026/2027 session.
