Institute of Health Technology, University Teaching Hospital, Benin cut off mark for all courses that are offered in the institution has been released by the school authority in accordance with JAMB’s directive. Before the management and school authority of IHT-UBTH fix their minimum cut off mark, it has to be in line with that of JAMB’s approved cut off mark for the academic session. JAMB does not fix IHT-UBTH cut off mark, however they (JAMB) peg a fixed admission cut off point every academic session that no institution must go below, that is, in the case of IHT-UBTH, they must not go below the ceiling placed for fixing of cut off marks.
This academic session, JAMB fixed the general cut off mark for all Public Health Colleges (Federal, State and Private) as 160. However, Public Health Colleges are at liberty to fix their minimum admission cut off mark at below 160 or above. For example, the cut off mark for IHT-UBTH is 160. This simply means that candidates that register IHT-UBTH as their preferred choice of institution must have scored at least 160 and above to be eligible to purchase IHT-UBTH Post UTME form and apply for admission into their selected course. JAMB’s duty is to regulate and give admission to deserving candidates who meet IHT-UBTH cut off mark and passed the Post UTME test.
Oftentimes candidates seeking admission are confused as to what is the best JAMB score for their course which results to questions like?

Again, candidates with higher JAMB score are at advantage of gaining admission into IHT-UBTH even though all candidates who score 160 and above are given equal opportunities to sit for the Post UTME because after calculating their aggregate score or weighted average, candidates with higher JAMB scores tend to score higher because of their UTME scores gives an edge when calculating their average cut off mark over candidates with low UTME scores.
