How to prepare
- Your UTME score counts for the biggest share of the UNILAG aggregate, but the Post-UTME can still move you above or below the departmental cut-off. Treat it seriously.
- Use the free Admission Chance Checker to see what Post-UTME score you need for your course.
- Practise under time, so the real screening does not rush you.
