How to Calculate Your COOU Aggregate Score

After completing the Post-UTME exam, follow these steps to calculate your aggregate score:

1. Note down your JAMB score
2. Note down your Post-UTME score
3. Divide your JAMB score by 8
4. Divide your Post-UTME score by 2
5. Add the results from steps 3 and 4

If you scored 240 in jamb, you divide it by 8, 240 ÷ 8 = 30. If you scored 56 in your utme screening, you divide it by 2, 56 ÷ 2 = 28. Now add the two scores together, 30 + 28 = 58.

The final sum which is 58 is your aggregate score, which determines your admission chances.
