Linguistics/Edo UTME Subject Combination for JAMB Candidates
Contents
The JAMB brochure lists Linguistics/Edo under Arts/Humanities and identifies BENIN as the awarding institution for the programme. The UTME subject structure shown for the course is two relevant Arts subjects and any other subject.
The UTME Subjects Listed
For Linguistics/Edo, the brochure gives the following structure:
- Two relevant Arts subjects
- Any other subject
This means the two Arts subjects form the specified Arts component, while the remaining subject can be another subject permitted within the stated structure.
Do Not Confuse This With the O'Level Subjects
The UTME combination is separate from the O'Level requirement. The brochure gives an O'Level structure involving English Language, Literature in English and a Nigerian Language, preferably Edo. That is an O'Level requirement and should not be substituted for the UTME combination.
A Note on English Language
For the exact Linguistics/Edo row, the brochure states the UTME subjects as two relevant Arts subjects and any other subject. It does not separately list English Language within that specific UTME subject entry, so candidates should not replace the stated wording with a different combination taken from another Linguistics programme.
For Candidates Choosing Their Subjects
The safest approach is to follow the exact subject structure attached to Linguistics/Edo in the admission information. Related courses may have different subject requirements, even when their names contain the word "Linguistics".
