According to the official breakdown released on Monday, only 420,415 candidates scored 200 and above in the just-concluded examination.
Further analysis showed that 7,658 candidates scored between 300 and 319, while only 4,756 candidates scored 320 and above.
The figures reflect a consistent trend of low performance among UTME candidates in recent years.
