Here’s exactly how to calculate your aggregate score for the University of Maiduguri (UNIMAID), with a correctly worked example.
UNIMAID was established by the federal government in 1975 and is based in Maiduguri, the capital of Borno State.
What Is Aggregate Score?
Your aggregate score is the combined figure UNIMAID uses to rank candidates and determine the cut-off point for each programme. Cut-off points differ by course because they’re set according to how all the candidates who applied for that course performed.
How to Calculate UNIMAID Aggregate Score
UNIMAID’s JAMB examination is marked out of 400, while its Post-UTME screening is marked out of 100. The formula is a 50:50 split between the two:
- Divide your JAMB score by 8.
- Divide your Post-UTME score by 2.
- Add the two results together to get your aggregate score.
Say a candidate scored 240 in JAMB and 80 in UNIMAID’s Post-UTME:
240 ÷ 8 = 30
80 ÷ 2 = 40
30 + 40 = 70
That candidate’s aggregate score would be 70 out of a possible 100.
