Zoology at Nnamdi Azikiwe University (UNIZIK) asks for Biology at both the O’Level and JAMB stages and leaves the supporting science subjects open at each.
The departmental post-UTME mark is set twenty points above the general JAMB figure, so the screening examination carries more weight than the subject combination does.
The sections below cover the O’Level credits, the four JAMB papers, the university wide score and the departmental cut-off for this department in turn.
