Imagine this: The JAMB portal finally opens, you check your result, and you see a decent 250. You are relieved, your family is proud, and your WAEC results are solid too. But as the Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko (AAUA) admission screening draws closer, that initial relief starts to morph into anxiety. Is 250 really enough for your dream course at AAUA? Every admission cycle, thousands of brilliant students miss out on their preferred courses. The heartbreaking part? It is rarely because their scores were objectively "bad," but because they did not understand how their university calculates aggregate scores. They leave their admission to guesswork instead of calculating their exact standing and making strategic decisions—like applying for a change of course before the window closes.
Knowing your exact AAUA aggregate score is absolutely essential. It is the only metric that tells you where you truly stand against the departmental cut-off marks.

How the AAUA Formula Works
Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko uses a straightforward 100-point grading system. Unlike some universities that factor in the number of exam sittings you have, AAUA's formula strictly evaluates just two things: your JAMB score (60%) and your O'Level grades (40%).
Here is the detailed breakdown of how the 100% is shared.
Step 1: Your JAMB Score (Maximum 60 Points)
At AAUA, your JAMB score carries the majority of the weight—up to 60% of your total aggregate. To convert your JAMB score into AAUA's point system, you apply a specific multiplier.
The Formula: Simply multiply your total JAMB score by 0.15. (For example, if a candidate scored a perfect 400 in JAMB: 400 × 0.15 = 60 points).
Step 2: Your O'Level Subjects (Maximum 40 Points)
Next, AAUA evaluates your O'Level results (WAEC, NECO, or NABTEB), which make up the remaining 40%. You do not need to calculate all 9 subjects you wrote; you only need to select your 5 core subjects that are strictly relevant to your proposed course of study.
AAUA uses a very specific point system for O'Level grades that is a bit more generous than some other schools. You simply add up the points for your 5 relevant subjects based on this scale:
- A1 equals 8 points
- B2 equals 7 points
- B3 equals 6 points
- C4 equals 5 points
- C5 equals 4 points
- C6 equals 3 points
(For example, if you scored straight A1s in your 5 core subjects: 5 subjects × 8 points = 40 points).
Note: AAUA does not add bonus points or deduct points based on the number of O'Level sittings you present. It is strictly about the grades you achieved.
Putting It All Together: A Sample Calculation
Let’s calculate the aggregate score for a fictional aspirant named Emeka, who is applying to study Accounting.
Emeka's Academic Profile:
- JAMB Score: 250
- O'Level Grades: Mathematics (B2), English Language (C4), Economics (A1), Commerce (B3), and Financial Accounting (C5).
The Calculation
1. Calculate the JAMB Points:
- Emeka's JAMB score (250) multiplied by 0.15.
- 250 × 0.15 = 37.5 Points
2. Calculate the O'Level Points:
- Mathematics (B2) = 7 points
- English Language (C4) = 5 points
- Economics (A1) = 8 points
- Commerce (B3) = 6 points
- Financial Accounting (C5) = 4 points
- Total O'Level Points = 7 + 5 + 8 + 6 + 4 = 30 Points
Final Aggregate Score:
- JAMB Points (37.5) + O'Level Points (30)
- 37.5 + 30 = 67.5%
Emeka's final admission aggregate score for AAUA is 67.5%. He can now compare this score against the official cut-off mark for Accounting to see how safe he is.
