How LASPOTECH Post-UTME Screening Score Is Determined
It is important to note that even though LASPOTECH sells post-UTME form for applicants, however, the school do not conduct any post-UTME exam for the students. Here is how post-UTME screening score is being calculated:
The post-UTME screening score calculation is in two parts:
Part 1: Calculation of Jamb Score
Usually , your Jamb score would be divided by 8
For instance, If a Candidate named Rufai who applied to LASPOTECH scored 250 in Jamb.
Then to calculate the Jamb score, it would be 250 divided by 8 (250/8) which equals 31.25
Part 2: Calculation of O’ level Grade
To calculate O’level score, 5 core subjects will be required. English and Mathematics are non-negotiable with 3 other subjects relevant to your chosen course of Study.
WAEC and NECO grading system is as follows:
A1 = 10 marks
B2 = 9 marks
B3 = 8 marks
C4 = 7 marks
C5 = 6 marks
C6 = 5 marks
While NABTEB result grading system is as follows:
A1 = 10 marks
A2 = 9 marks
A3 = 8 marks
C4 = 7 marks
C5 = 6 marks
C6 = 5 marks
Here Is How To Calculate O’ level Grades:
Lets Assume that Rufai’s WAEC result is as follows:
Mathematics = A1
English = C4
Physics = B2
Chemistry = B3
Biology = B2
Agricultural Science = C4
Computer Studies = B2
Geography = C6
Rufai is applying to study Electrical/ Electronics Engineering at LASPOTECH. It implies that the five key subjects would be English, Mathematics , Physics, Chemistry and Geography. Now lets calculate Rufai’s O level grade.
Mathematics ,A1 = 10 marks
English, C4 = 7 marks
Physics, B2 = 9 marks
Chemistry, B3 = 8 marks
Geography, C6= 5 marks
Total marks = 10 + 7+ 9+ 8+ 5 = 39 marks
To calculate screening score = Jamb score+ O’ level grade
= 31.25 + 39
= 70.25
That means that the screening score for Rufai will be 70.25.
