JAMB UTME subject combination (requirements) for Health Education 

Knowing JAMB subjects for Health Education is not enough. You should aim for a score of 180 – 200 and above in JAMB UTME to be on a safe side (Just a piece of advice) because anything short of that may deny you of Admission/Post UTME. Of course, if you have a score below 180, you can consider College of Education or Polytechnic… Please note – JAMB is not the only option for admission. If you’re having troubles JAMB UTME maybe it’s time you pass through IJBM, JUBEB, ND, HND or Predegree!..

These are JAMB UTME subject combinations (subjects to write in jamb) to study Health Education

1. English Language
2. Three other subjects

 

Direct Entry requirement (required A-level result) to study Health Education

(iii) Registered Nurse plus 5 ‘O’ level credit to include English Language

 

If for some reasons you are not satisfied or cannot meet up with this admission requirement that is the subject combination above, perhaps you should consider other Health Education  similar courses or take a look at Polytechnic or College of Education related course subject requirements.
