One of the problems students face while seeking admission is combining abut the wrong subjects in the UTME. If you find yourself in such a mess, see solutions to wrong subjects combination in my post, “What to do About Wrong Subject Combination in UTME”.
But you don’t want to make mistakes and later be looking for ways out. Hence, you will need to study my “Mini-Brochure” which I researched to let you know the right subjects to fill during UTME registration and write during exams. Note that the collection is as detailed in the updated official JAMB brochure. You should learn how to study the official JAMB brochure to avoid admission errors.
This work is a quick guide though, hence I advise you to click each course link (where available) to see other universities, polytechnics, colleges of educations (offering them), conditions such as SSCE and UTME subject result requirements, schools that have some conditions different from general subjects, etc.
This collection will equally be your perfect guide if you’re trying to do the change of courses and you want to be sure that your UTME subjects are right for the department you’re now proposing.

Note that the English Language (or Use of English) is constant with all courses. In other words, every UTME candidate will write English irrespective of his or her proposed course. Hence, I will only state the other three subjects you should consider in UTME for each of the courses.
Hence, the subject combination below each course represents the rest three to add to the English.
