Religion Courses:
Obviously we can’t mention less Competitive Courses without including religion courses.
Religion Courses just like language Courses are very less Competitive one. Students hates to hear these courses even while it is a normal subject in the college days(Secondary School) they will have to be forced to offer the subject.
Nevertheless, Just as the name of the course, it is majorly the study of religion and beliefs. Most ART students tend to find themselves in this course when they don’t meet up with the requirements of their chosen course.

Radiography is an excellent course most especially for science students. This course is actually unknown to many students. This course has been outclassed on the ground that it is not competitive but of great surprise that Radiography is very lucrative and very respected too. It is really a good choice of science course to study at university.
Majority of students don’t know this course and what they do which makes it less competitive for anyone to easily gain Admission in any University in Nigeria.

Majority of students believes mathematics and Statistics is a tough course hence they run from it and this has made the course less competitive. Provided you have an average grade in your entry examination, you’re good to go.
Trust me you won’t regret choosing statistics if you want a less competitive course to study.
