It is true that you are required to have at least a credit pass as an O’level requirement before you can study certain courses in any university in Nigeria, however, that you are unable to obtain that grade does necessarily mean that you won’t be able to secure admission to higher institutions.
The good news is that there are courses you can apply for and be able to secure admission even when you have an ordinary pass (D7 or E8) in your O’level Mathematics. The purpose of this post is to give you a list of courses you can study with an ordinary pass in mathematics and the universities that can accept you into such courses.
