How UNN Calculates Aggregate Score

The final admission status is determined by an aggregate score, which is a combination of a candidate’s UTME score and their Post-UTME score. The formula for calculating the UNN aggregate score is as follows:

UTME Score: Divided by 8
Post-UTME Score: Divided by 2

Aggregate Score = (UTME Score / 8) + (Post-UTME Score / 2)

For example, if a candidate scores 280 in the UTME and 60 in the Post-UTME, their aggregate score would be calculated as:

(280 / 8) + (60 / 2) = 35 + 30 = 65
