Use of English 72
Mathematics 99
Physics 99

Agnes wrote her UTME on 14 March 2020 at St. Michael Otedola Educational Centre, Epe, Lagos.
A diligent student, she was the President of The Maths Club and the first Assistant Head Girl of Louisville Girls High School Ijebu-Itele in Ogun State.
Agnes applied to study Industrial Production Engineering at Nigeria’s premier university, University of Ibadan.
She wants to study Engineering so that she can apply scientific ideas in explaining cultural difficulties.
JAMB had distributed the top 10 highest scores, with 13 students on the list. And they all intend to study Engineering. Four of the students are female.
