6 High-Demand Courses to Pick with a 140–170 JAMB Score
Over the years of guiding JAMB candidates, I’ve seen students with 140–170 gain admission—while others with 200+ miss out by choosing the wrong course or school. A low score doesn’t block admission; it narrows your options. Focus first on strategy, then on emotion. Assess your JAMB score, O’level strength, and market demand before applying. Here are three fields (and their courses) you can consider with a 140–170 score: 1. Education (cut-off 140–170): Education & English, Education & Biology, Guidance and Counselling, Educational Management, Education & Computer Science. Graduates work in classroom teaching, online tutoring, international schools, or consulting. 2. Agricultural Sciences (cut-off 140–170): Animal Science, Crop Science. Career paths include farm management, food processing, and agribusiness. 3. Library and Information Science (cut-off 140–170): Roles in digital archives, knowledge management, and library services remain in high demand.
