Benue State Polytechnic, Ugbokolo JAMB cut off mark for all courses that are offered in the polytechnic has been released by the school authority in accordance with JAMB’s directive. Before the management and school authority of BENPOLY fix their minimum cut off mark, it has to be in line with that of JAMB’s approved cut off mark for the academic session. JAMB does not fix BENPOLY cut off mark, however they (JAMB) peg a fixed admission cut off point every academic session that no polytechnic must go below, that is, in the case of BENPOLY, they must not go below the ceiling placed for fixing of cut off marks.
This academic session, JAMB fixed the general cut off mark for all Polytechnic as 120. However, BENPOLY is at liberty to fix their minimum admission cut off mark at 120 and above. For example, the cut off mark for BENPOLY is 120. This simply means that candidates that register BENPOLY as their preferred choice of polytechnic must have scored at least 120 and above to be eligible to purchase BENPOLY post UTME form and apply for admission into their selected course. JAMB’s duty is to regulate and give admission to deserving candidates who meet BENPOLY cut off mark and passed the Post UTME test.
Oftentimes candidates seeking admission are confused as to what is the best JAMB score for their course which results to questions like?

Again, candidates with higher JAMB score are at advantage of gaining admission into BENPOLY even though all candidates who score 120 and above are given equal opportunities to sit for the post UTME because after calculating their aggregate score or weighted average, candidates with higher JAMB scores tend to score higher because of their UTME scores gives an edge when calculating their average cut off mark over candidates with low UTME scores.
