Economics UTME Subject Combination in Art/Humanities
Contents
Candidates applying for Economics should pay close attention to the UTME subjects specified for the exact course entry. The JAMB brochure gives the combination as Economics, Mathematics and any one of Government, History, Geography, Literature in English, French and CRS/IRS.
The Required UTME Subjects
- Economics
- Mathematics
- Any one of Government, History, Geography, Literature in English, French or CRS/IRS
This means that Economics and Mathematics are the two named subjects, while the third subject is selected from the alternatives listed above.
Do You Need Government and History Together?
No. The wording uses alternatives. A candidate is not being asked to take both Government and History as the third subject. The candidate chooses one subject from the listed options.
What About CRS and IRS?
The brochure presents CRS/IRS as an alternative in the final position. Candidates should therefore understand it as the relevant choice between Christian Religious Studies and Islamic Religious Studies, rather than treating both as two separate compulsory subjects.
Economics and Mathematics Remain Important
The combination specifically names Economics and Mathematics. Candidates should not replace either with a subject from the third-subject alternatives.
Institutional Variations
For the exact Economics entry supplied, the general UTME combination is presented for the listed institutions. Candidates should still check any institution-specific note attached to their preferred school because the JAMB brochure can contain special considerations within a course entry.
For Economics, the specific UTME special consideration shown in the entry concerns Federal University Wukari under its Direct Entry conditions; it does not replace the general UTME combination.
Quick Subject Check
