JAMB 273 Scorer Shows 2026 WAEC Result, Targets Medicine

Charles-Umege Divine Osinachi, a student of Brainstar Academy in Rumuokoro, Port Harcourt, has taken to Facebook to celebrate his 2026 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WAEC) result, which he shared alongside his JAMB score as he pursues admission to study Medicine and Surgery.

JAMB Score and Post-UTME Details

According to his Post-UTME screening slip, Charles-Umege scored 273 in the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), with subject scores of 76 in Chemistry, 73 in Physics, 63 in Use of English, and 61 in Biology. He applied to study Medicine and Surgery under the Faculty of Health Sciences, a highly competitive programme that typically requires strong scores across science subjects.

A score of 273 places him comfortably above the general JAMB benchmark, though admission into Medicine and Surgery at most Nigerian universities often demands even higher scores due to the volume of applicants competing for limited spaces.

WAEC Result Highlights

The WAEC result he displayed showed equally impressive performance. Charles-Umege earned A1 grades in Economics, Agriculture, Chemistry, and Livestock Farming, a B2 in Biology, and B3 grades in Civic Education, English Language, General Mathematics, and Physics. The Chemistry A1 in particular stands out given its weight in the medicine and surgery admission process.

Writing on Facebook on August 6, 2026, under the name Swat Rilz, the young man shared screenshots of his 2026/2027 Post-UTME screening slip and his WAEC result, expressing gratitude for both outcomes. "Hard work, consistency, and God's grace made this possible. This is just the beginning," he wrote.
