The school authority has announced the Ramat Polytechnic, Maiduguri, JAMB cut off mark for all courses offered at the polytechnic in compliance with JAMB’s directive. Before RAMAT POLY’s administration and school authorities set their minimal cut-off point, it must be consistent with JAMB’s approved cut-off mark for the academic session. JAMB does not set the RAMAT POLY cut off mark; nevertheless, they (JAMB) set a predetermined admission cut off point for each academic session that no polytechnic is allowed to fall below, i.e., in the case of RAMAT POLY, they are not allowed to fall below the ceiling set for setting cut off marks.
JAMB set the overall cut-off mark for all Polytechnics at 120 this academic session. RAMAT POLY, on the other hand, is free to set its minimal entrance cut-off point at 120 or higher. The cutoff mark for RAMAT POLY, for example, is 120. This simply means that candidates who select RAMAT POLY as their preferred polytechnic must have obtained a score of 120 or higher in order to acquire an RAMAT POLY post-UTME form and apply for admission to their desired programme. It is the responsibility of JAMB to regulate and admit qualified applicants who meet the RAMAT POLY cut-off point and have passed the Post-UTME test.
Often times candidates seeking admission are confused as to what is the best JAMB score for their course which results to questions like?
I got 120 in JAMB; can i be admitted into RAMAT POLY?
What score must i get to study Computer Science in RAMAT POLY?
What is RAMAT POLY cut off mark for 2025/2026 academic session
Candidates, who scored 120, 130, 140, or higher may wonder if they are eligible to study Political Science or any of the RAMAT POLY courses, please note that using the courses and cut-off marks published today, you will be able to determine whether or not you are eligible for admission to RAMAT POLY on your own. I’ll include the accepted RAMAT POLY courses as well as the minimal JAMB cut off mark you’ll need to be qualified for Post UTME at RAMAT POLY.
Please keep in mind that selecting RAMAT POLY as your first choice of polytechnic in your UTME registration is the first step to getting admission, as the school will give priority to applicants who chose RAMAT POLY as their first choice of polytechnic before evaluating other options if necessary.
Candidates with higher JAMB scores have a better chance of getting into RAMAT POLY, even though all candidates who score 120 and above are given equal chances to sit for the post-UTME. This is because after calculating their aggregate score or weighted average, candidates with higher JAMB scores tend to score higher because their UTME scores give them an advantage when calculating their average cut. So, to improve your chances of pursuing your selected degree, you should work as hard as possible to achieve high in your JAMB and Post-UTME exams.
With the aforementioned facts at your disposal, I am confident that you will get admitted to RAMAT POLY without difficulty. Except for applicants from the Educationally Less Developed States, the majority of candidates are unaware that a low JAMB score reduces their chances.
The RAMAT POLY cut off mark is fairly high, which means that scoring up to 120 in your JAMB is difficult, unlike other Federal schools with the same level as RAMAT POLY, which have a minimum cut off mark of 120.
