Honestly, if you open your jamb utme resit results and realize you didn’t hit the cut off mark for your first choice school, it can feel like the end of the world. Trust me, I remember when my friend was in this exact situation and she was really stressed. But honestly, there are still options for you!

The coolest thing is, you can actually do a change of course or even change your institution to somewhere with a lower cut off mark. JAMB allows students to switch, and lots of people do this if their result isn’t what they were hoping for. Some schools also have less popular courses with lower requirements, which makes it a little easier to get in.

I always tell people, your jamb utme score is important, but it’s not the only thing that matters. Some schools look at your WAEC results or conduct Post-UTME exams or other screenings too. So don’t freak out! Look at your options, talk to people who have gone through the same thing, and, if possible, get your change of course or institution done quickly so you don’t miss deadlines. Everyone’s path is different, but there’s always a way through!
