JAMB Subject Combination for Banking, Finance and Insurance

If you are choosing Banking, Finance and Insurance in the UTME, getting the subject combination right is one of the first things to settle. The programme's listed UTME combination is based around Mathematics and a Social Science subject, together with another relevant subject.

Required JAMB subjects

• Use of English
• Mathematics
• One Social Science subject
• Any other relevant subject

Use of English should be included because it is the compulsory UTME language component. The brochure's tabulated combination gives Mathematics, one Social Science subject and any other subject.

Why the combination matters

Choosing the wrong subjects can create an avoidable admission problem even when a candidate has a strong UTME score. Candidates should therefore select the subjects carefully during JAMB registration and make sure they correspond with the programme and institution they intend to apply to.

There can also be institution-specific variations. For example, the supplied material contains special UTME remarks for individual programmes and institutions elsewhere in the Faculty information. Candidates should therefore check their preferred university's current requirement before finalising their choices.
