Predictive Validity of University Matriculation Examination and Post University Matriculation Examination:- Akanwa U.N
Abstract
A cohort
of 3,280 students admitted by a combination of JAMB University Matriculation
Examination (UME) and Post-UME modes in 2005 were followed up in a longitudinal
correlational study. They were followed through UME and Post-UME to 100 level
and 200 level examination scores in their respective universities. UME and
Post-UME performance were measured by aggregate scores while 100 level and 200
level performance was measured by the cumulative grade point average (CGPA).
Data was analyzed using Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation and regression.
Results showed that the Post-UME was a better predictor of performance at the
100 level and 200 level.
