As part of ways to make this year registration for UTME and Direct Entry candidates easier, we have published so many posts on JAMB UTME and Direct Entry and also we compiled the list of subjects that science, commercial, engineering, social science, education, and medical students must possess before proceeding to register for JAMB UTME and Direct Entry.

Insideschool Tips: The first step to gaining admission into the university is knowing the right course and also the right subject combination. Your choice of institution and course will also depend on your O’level subjects.
