Sociology UTME Subject Combination in Art/Humanities

JAMB Subjects for Sociology

Candidates applying for Sociology should pay close attention to the subject structure attached to the course in the JAMB admission brochure. The listed UTME combination for Sociology is:

• Government or History
• Any two other Social Sciences or Arts subjects

This means Government and History are alternatives in the first position; candidates do not need to take both simply because both appear in the wording. The remaining two subjects are selected from the stated Social Sciences or Arts options.

How to Understand the Combination

The combination is built around Government or History plus two other subjects from the specified subject groups. Candidates should therefore make their choices carefully and ensure that the subjects entered in JAMB correspond with the structure attached to Sociology.

The brochure does not state that a candidate must select Government and History together. The wording indicates the alternatives given for that part of the combination.

Avoid Confusing Sociology with Related Courses

It is important not to copy a subject combination from another course simply because the course has a similar name. Sociology and Anthropology, for instance, has its own entry in the same section of the brochure.

Quick Check Before JAMB Registration
