Academic Staff Union Of Polytechnics rejects JAMB cut off


The Academic Staff Union Of Polytechnics, ASUP has rejected the idea by the Joint Admissions and Management Board to set her National Cut off for at 110.

This was made known to us through the National President of ASUU, Mr. Usman Dutse in a phone call today. He said that the National cut off marks that JAMB created was pitiable and shouldn't be accepted.

Mr. Usman wondered what JAMB board was trying to achieve via making such a ridiculous decision. A candidate who took JAMB and scored 120 only passed 25% and that's failure even in the outside world, it isn't acceptable.

When a student applies for JAMB, he scores 120 and you tell him to go apply for Post-UTME, actually makes JAMB irrelevant.
"And the notion by JAMB that institutions can upgrade the mark to suit their needs funny, because if institutions can upgrade the marks higher than JAMB's stipulated cut off, it equally means that there's no need for people to write JAMB"......he said
So we feel that its of no Relevance to accept the decision.
