Download Real University of Ibadan Post UTME Practice questions and things you need to know

First of all, we will like to clear the air about the University of Ibadan Post UTME past questions.  U.I does not release its post UTME questions to students after the exam and hence it doesn't have any real/official Post-UTME past questions . Our Research has shown that some persons/platforms post things like "University of Ibadan Post UTME past questions since 2010, some since 2008 etc, while some even sell it for fee around #1000. We advise all U.I aspirants to desist from all of that as it is just a mere business tactics. We are not saying they are not past questions, but they are not University of Ibadan Past questions, which may be dangerous for your preparation. The only thing University of Ibadan has is the officially released Post UTME   Practice questions , which was released for 2015/2016 Jambites on the official school website as at that year. We have helped you retrieve some of them, which can be downloaded below. As we all know there was no Post UTME last year

Latest UI 2017/2018 Admissons- University of Ibadan takes its stand on announced Jamb Cut off mark

On the Recently Announced cut off Marks of 120 for University Admission: our position in UI: By Sunday Saanu - Media Assistant to the Vice-Chancellor, University of Ibadan      The Management of the University of Ibadan wishes to inform the public about the recently announced cut off marks of 120 for University Admission that UI will not lower her standards.      A statement from the Vice Chancellor's office indicates that the Nigeria's premier university still maintains her position  in academic excellence and standards in order to continue to aspire towards becoming a world-class university.      It should worry us as patriots that candidates who scored just 30% in UTME can be admitted into some of our universities. Yet, we complain of poor quality of our graduates. You can hardly build something on nothing. The consolation here is that since JAMB started conducting this qualifying exam in 1978, UI has never admitted any candidate who scored less than 200 marks out of
