2019/2020 Session: JAMB Releases different admission deadlines for public, private varsities
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has started the processes for placement of candidates into all tiers of tertiary institutions for the 2019/2020 academic session.
“The first choice admission for public universities commenced from August 21 and will end on November 16.
Benjamin told NAN that the projection for 2019 was to ensure that candidates utilise more available spaces, unlike in 2018 when there were over 500,000 unutilised available spaces in all the tiers of tertiary institutions.
According to him, this reports are misleading and borne out of misconception or ignorance.
“In the process of normalising these scores, candidates who have scored zero in a particular subject can also have a value of a mark which may not be up to 20.
According to him, it is done in countries such as India, Kenya and United Kingdom.
“If the raw score indicates that a candidate has come on top in an examination, after the normalisation process, the candidate’s position will remain intact. (NAN)
