How To Calculate IMSU Aggregate Score

To calculate your IMSU Post UTME aggregate score, divide your UTME score by 8 and your Post UTME score by 2.

For example, If Abdul scored 260 in JAMB and 50% in the Post UTME, then:

260 ÷ 8 = 32.5

50 ÷ 2 = 25

Finally, 32.5+ 25 = 57.5%

So, Abdul’s overall IMSU aggregate score is 57.5%.
