News Agency of NigeriaAccording to Benjamin, the period slated for the admission processes as agreed during a policy meeting with stakeholders on June 11, at Gbongan, Osun, remains sacrosanct.“The first choice admission for public universities commenced from August 21 and will end on November 16.“The second choice admission for public universities will be from November 17 to December 17, 2019,” he said.
He said that this development was contrary to the general narrative that there were no access to tertiary institutions, with about 60 per cent of available spaces unutilised. “What this means is that, if, for instance, JAMB examines about two million candidates in 23 subjects, it is only natural that you normalise these scores so that the candidates can be rated on the same scale.
“In doing this, the psychometric formula globally used by all examination bodies gives even zero a value,” he said.According to him, it is done in countries such as India, Kenya and United Kingdom.
