I've heard people say that letting students in with low JAMB scores means the school isn't as good, but honestly, that's not always the case. My uncle lectures at a university that started taking students with like 140 or 150, and he told me some of those students actually work super hard and end up doing better than people with higher JAMB.

JAMB is just one test. Sometimes you have a bad day, or you just don't do great on tricky multiple choice. What really counts is how you behave once you're in school. Some universities put a lot of effort into helping students catch up or get better at stuff they missed, especially when they know kids are coming in with lower scores.

Sure, maybe not everyone keeps up, but if you're motivated and you use the school's resources, you can honestly finish as good as anyone. It's not really about the JAMB cut-off, it's more about how serious you are when you finally get there. That's what I've seen with my own friends anyway!
