Scoring a 227 in JAMB for Computer Science at the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB) puts you in a bit of a "wait and see" position.
​Computer Science is one of the most applied-for courses at FUNAAB, and the university is known for having a very structured and competitive admission process. Here is what you need to know:
​1. The Cut-off Mark Reality
​Minimum Threshold: FUNAAB usually sets its general institutional cut-off mark at 160 or 200 (depending on the year and the specific college). However, for a high-demand course like Computer Science, the effective cut-off is usually much higher.
​The 227 Factor: Your score is good, but it is considered "mid-range" for Computer Science. Usually, candidates with 240–250+ feel more secure. However, because you are awaiting your O'Level results, your admission will heavily depend on your Post-UTME score and your final O'Level grades once they are uploaded.
​2. The Composite Score System
​FUNAAB often uses a composite grading system (a combination of your JAMB score, O'Level results, and Post-UTME).
​Since you are awaiting results, ensure that as soon as your O'Level (WAEC/NECO) is released, you upload it to the JAMB CAPS portal immediately. FUNAAB will not offer admission to any candidate with an "Awaiting Result" status once the screening period ends.
​3. Practical Steps for You
​Focus on the Post-UTME: This is your chance to "boost" your 227. If you can score very high in the FUNAAB internal screening, it will compensate for your JAMB score.
​Subject Combination: Double-check that your O'Level results (when they come) include credits in Mathematics, English, Physics, and Chemistry. FUNAAB is strict about these core sciences for Computer Science.
