Physics is taught under the Faculty of Sciences at Federal University, Lokoja (FULOKOJA). Physics and Mathematics are fixed on every route, and the third science is where the choice lies.
The O’Level line names Further Mathematics as one of the acceptable fifth subjects, which is unusual and useful for candidates who took it alongside the standard papers.
Confirm that Physics appears on the current FULOKOJA course list and that your JAMB registration records it correctly before you sit the examination. A course entered in error cannot be assessed against these conditions.
