UNIBEN student goes back to write JAMB
Ayerin, currently studying Plant Biology and Biotechnology at UNIBEN, got 320 in the 2025 UTME.
He got 91 in Physics, 85 in Chemistry, 77 in Biology and 67 in English. The student expressed his optimism about getting his dream course.
His words:
“My fourth time writing JAMB. UNIBEN changed my course several times, and this time, God isn't giving them a chance.”

Ayerin shared how he had been trying to get his dream course of Medicine and Surgery since he graduated from secondary school in 2019.
At 17, he wrote his first UTME in 2020 and scored 224, but he didn’t go for post-UTME.
He said:
“I didn't even bother to write the post-UTME because I picked OAU for MBBS then. In 2021, I did IJMB in Ilorin(I had an issue with my name due to late registration. Another girl's name was on the result, whereas my picture was on it).
“In 2022, I scored 284 in JAMB and 13 points in IJMB, but I had to use one. So, I used the JAMB and UNIBEN gave me EMT.
“In 2023, I used my IJMB and UNILORIN gave me agriculture. In 2024, I got 290 in UTME and UNIBEN gave me PBB, which I'm studying currently.”

Ayerin said that what may have been affecting his admission to study his dream course was poor orientation.
He said:
“I think the major problem was a poor orientation and weak post-UTME score, which I'm working towards, and God will surely help me this time. I can't be given another course this year. Haba.”
While sharing the result analysis, JAMB revealed that over 75 per cent of candidates for this year got less than 200 in scores.
