Forestry and Wildlife Management is taught under the Faculty of Agriculture at Federal University Gashua. Chemistry is named on all three routes and never has an alternative.
Biology is not required at O’Level at all, yet it becomes compulsory at UTME and again at Direct Entry. That gap between the stages is worth planning around.
Confirm that Forestry and Wildlife Management appears on the current FUGASHUA course list and that your JAMB registration records it correctly before you sit the examination.
