At O’Level, English Language and Mathematics are the two fixed credits. Three more come from a list that covers Economics or Commerce, Business Methods, Principles of Accounts, Literature in English, Geography and Office Practice.
That same list also accepts the sciences, Biology or Agricultural Science, Chemistry and Physics, along with History or Government, Typewriting and Shorthand. Few departments cast the net this wide.
The JAMB side keeps English Language compulsory and lets you pick three from Mathematics, Economics or Commerce, History or Government, Geography, CRS and Principles of Accounts.
Note that Mathematics is compulsory at O’Level but optional at UTME here. You still need the credit, but you are not obliged to sit it as a JAMB paper.
The gap between the 150 polytechnic cut-off and the 172 departmental mark is small but real. Aim at 172, and choose JAMB subjects that match the O’Level credits you already hold.
