MAUTECH Mechanical Engineering Leaves Only the Fifth Credit Open
Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry are named at every stage of this application, from the O’level credits through the UTME papers to the two A’level or NCE passes at Direct Entry.
Only the fifth O’level credit is left to the candidate, and even that must be a science subject.
English Language sits alongside the three sciences at O’level and is compulsory again at UTME, so it is effectively a fourth fixed subject.
