Know the Grading System in OAU Post UTME
Before you can calculate your Post UTME result, you need to be familiar with the grading system the university use. OAU uses a grading system, with grades ranging from A-F. A1 represents the highest score while C6 represents the accepted lowest score. D7 to F9 carry no mark.
Get Your OAU Post-UTME Score
Your Post UTME score is whatever you get in the Post UTME exam plus your O’level score( say, 27+7.8=34.8). The OAU Post UTME exam consist of 40 questions; 10 each from Aptitude and other 3 subjects you did in UTME (OAU has substituted English Language for Aptitude)
Calculate Your Aggregate Score
After getting your Post UTME score, you need to calculate your aggregate score. You will calculate your aggregate score by dividing your UTME score by 8 (for example, 324÷8= 40.5). The O’level score is calculated using the following formula:A1 = 10 pointsB2 = 9 points B3 = 8 points; C4 = 7 points; C5 = 6 points; C6 = 5 points For each subject, you should multiply your grade by the point value and add up the results. For example, if you have an A1 in English (10 points), a B2 in Mathematics (9 points), a B3 in Physics (8 points), a C4 in Chemistry (7 points), and a C6 in Biology (5 points), your O’level score would be (10+9+8+7+5)/5 = 7.8.
