HOW TO CALCULATE FUTA AGGREGATE SCORE

It is very easy to calculate FUTA’s aggregate score as the university uses a formula similar to that of most universities.

Like other Federal Universities, Federal University of Technology, Akure uses a 50:50 system, where your JAMB represents 50% while your post represents the remaining 50% totaling 100%.

However, if you are able to perform really well in your post UTME you would find yourself having a really high aggregate score regardless of how you perform in your JAMB.

This is because Federal University of Technology, Akure prioritizes its post UTME over its JAMB scores.

To calculate Federal University of Technology, Akure aggregate score, you would need to know your JAMB and post UTME scores. Once you have that information handy, you can go ahead and use the calculation procedure below.

JAMB UTME is made up of 400 marks while FUTA post UTME is made 100 marks.

Simply divide your JAMB score by 8

Divide your Post UTME score by  2

Add up the result

That gives you your FUTA aggregate score

Illustration 1

JAMB Score / 8 = 50%

Post UME Score / 2 = 50%

Total = 100%

Example

To better understand the calculation process, you can check out this illustration below.

Let’s assume a candidate applying to study at the Federal University of Technology, Akure has a JAMB score of 205 and a Post UTME score of 50. To calculate his aggregate score;

JAMB score = 205 / 8 = 25.63

Post UTME score = 50 / 2 = 25

Total = 25.63(JAMB) + 25(Post UTME) = 51 approximately

Such candidate’s aggregate score will be 51.
