The 2017 UTME registration is expected to commence soon. Already, many candidates are eagerly waiting for the announcement. However, only a few have taken time to decide on the course of study to apply for.
In deciding a course of study, there are few things you should bear in mind;
First, you need to consider if you have interest or academic aptitude for the course you wish to apply for.
Another is, to verify if the course you intend to study is offered in the institution you are applying to. You are also to verify the accreditation status of that course in such institution.
Most importantly, you need to verify if you meet the O’level and UTME Subjects requirements for that particular course.
Each course of study has a specific O’level and UTME Subjects requirements you must meet before you are admitted to study that course. What works for an Engineering course won’t work for a medical course.
Many UTME Candidates often make the mistake of choosing a course that they do not meet the requirements for during UTME registration. Thereby disqualifying themselves of admission from the onset. No school can admit you to study a course you do not have the requirements for.
Even if your name appears on the admission list, you will be disqualified during the screening, verification or clearance process.
Like I mentioned earlier, the UTME registration for 2017 is yet to commence. If I were you, this is the time I would use to make the decision concerning which course of study to choose when the registration begins.
To help you in making that decision, you can make use of the SchoolGist Online JAMB Brochure.
It will show you the courses available in each higher institution, the O’level and UTME Subject combination or requirements for the courses.
If you are still a bit confused about the O’level requirements of the course you wish to study in any institution. You can post the institution, course, your O’level subjects and UTME Subjects you intend to sit for.
Enlightened SchoolGisters will help you determine if you are good to go or not.
Goodluck!
