Screening Result Formula

FUHSI 2025/2026 Admission Screening Formula Explained

The Federal University of Health Sciences, Ila-Orangun (FUHSI) uses a combined score from both the UTME (JAMB) and the O’Level (WAEC/NECO) results to determine each candidate’s final Post-UTME Screening Aggregate.

Screening Components

  • UTME (JAMB) Score — 80% weight
  • O’Level (WAEC/NECO) Result — 20% weight

This means your UTME performance carries more weight, while your O’Level grades also contribute significantly to your final score.

Step 1: O’Level Grading System

Each of the five required subjects (English, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology) is scored using the following point system:

Grade

Points

A1

6

B2

5

B3

4

C4

3

C5

2

C6

1

The total O’Level points = sum of your five subjects (maximum = 30 points).

Step 2: Formula for Screening Aggregate

Example Calculation

Candidate details:

  • UTME Score: 273
  • O’Level Results:
    Biology (B2), Chemistry (C5), English (C6), Mathematics (B2), Physics (C6)

O’Level Points = 5 + 2 + 1 + 5 + 1 = 14

Now applying the formula:

Final Screening Score = 63.93 / 100

Notes

  • Only candidates who uploaded their O’Level results on the JAMB portal were included.
  • Candidates should note that the screening score is not the same as departmental cutoff, but it determines your position in the merit ranking for admission.

The same formula applies to all UTME candidates for the 2025/2026 admission exercise.
