For the 2010/2011 academic year, the standard cut off mark announced by JAMB is 180. This benchmark is used by most universities, but some institutions will be using their own cut off. Since you asked about the Federal universities, I have listed some here:
The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination Syllabus is used in the Nigerian college system as a measure to test the suitability of students entering Nigerian Universities. It takes the form of a three and a half hour multiple choice exam where the first section concentrates on the use of English and the next sections are three subjects chosen by the student.These cut off marks can vary depending on your course and your application will need to be accompanied by a form and possible interview.
Going through this process can be stressful but it helps if you have the grades necessary, so it is perhaps best not to apply for the Akure University of Technology if you do not have the 200 points required. Good luck with your application, I hope you are successful in getting into the university you wish to!
