JAMB past questions for Radiography students

Practise the UTME subjects for Radiography. Each page has ten questions with answers and explanations; the rest are in the app.

What JAMB score do you need for Radiography?

The answer depends on the school, and on what its list measures. From the schools' own 2026/2027 lists:

  • UTME score (out of 400): the Radiography mark we hold runs from 170 at FUTO to 220 at BSU.
  • Aggregate worked out by the school: the mark runs from 74.5 at UNIOSUN to 77.375 at UNILAG. Each school works out its aggregate in its own way, so compare a school only with itself.

JAMB's lowest mark for any university is 150, and a course can ask for more than the school's general mark. See the Radiography cut-off mark at each of the 8 universities.
