The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released the full UTME subject combinations for Science, Arts, and Social Science courses and programs for the current academic session.
What combination of JAMB subjects should I put on my JAMB application? Are you studying for the current JAMB and not sure what combination of subjects to use? Well, this is the full list of JAMB subject combinations for all courses that we’ve put together for all JAMBites who want to take the next UTME.
These JAMB Subjects Combinations will help you choose the right set of classes for the course you want to take when you register for JAMB UTME. This will keep you from picking a course for which you are not qualified but are very good in the subjects it covers.
In fact, picking the right classes is the first step toward getting into college. Your O-level subjects will also play a role in where you go to school and what you study. No matter what they want to study, all candidates must get a credit in five relevant subjects on the right WAEC/NECO/NABTEB/Teachers’ Grade II exam.
It has been seen that most students are turned away because they chose the wrong subjects. This is why we take the time to update the Official JAMB subject combinations of all the courses offered in Nigerian universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education, which can be chosen during UTME and Direct Entry Registration.
