The sections below set out what candidates must meet to study Education and Chemistry at the University of Lagos, covering the O’level subject combination, the JAMB subject combination, Direct Entry options and the JAMB score.

To study Education and Chemistry, candidates must meet the following requirements.

O’Level Subject Combination

Below is the UTME Requirement for Education and Chemistry;

  • Five (5) SSC credits in Mathematics, Chemistry, and English Language and two (2) in Physics, Biology, and Agricultural Science.

Mathematics, Chemistry and English Language are the three fixed credits. The remaining two come from Physics, Biology and Agricultural Science, so you need a spread of science passes rather than depth in one subject.

Jamb Subject Combination

Below is the UTME/JAMB SUBJECT COMBINATION for Education and Chemistry;

  • English Language, Chemistry, and two (2) other subjects chosen from Physics, Biology, and Mathematics.

Chemistry is the only named subject beyond compulsory English Language at this stage. You then choose two from Physics, Biology and Mathematics, which leaves one of those three out of your combination.

Direct Entry Requirement

Below is the DIRECT ENTRY (DE) Requirement for Education and Chemistry;

  • Two (2) ‘A’ level/NCE passes, including Chemistry and one (1) another Science subject.

An NCE carries the same weight as an A level pass on this route, which matters for candidates coming through a college of education rather than a sixth form.

Jamb Score

For any candidate to be admitted to any Department in the University of Lagos, the Candidate must score 200 and above in JAMB.

The 200 Mark That Applies Across UNILAG

Chemistry anchors this programme from O level through to Direct Entry. You need five SSC credits in Mathematics, Chemistry and English Language plus two from Physics, Biology and Agricultural Science, then Chemistry again in your UTME combination.

Direct Entry takes two A level or NCE passes including Chemistry and one other Science subject. The JAMB threshold is not department specific here: UNILAG requires 200 and above for admission to any of its departments.
