See 7 Secrets Guild Of Scoring 280 And Above In JAMB Exam
score barely 200 in JAMB. I begin to ask myself, "What is so difficult
about JAMB that lots of students struggle with it?" From my findings,
I discovered that lots of students are not knowledgeable about how to
pass JAMB and pass it very well.
It is not as difficult as most students think. As a result of this, I
decided to come up with this seven secrets which are discussed
beneath;
1. Set a Target
Personally, I believe that there is nothing impossible that one cannot
achieve. In scoring 280 and above in UTME exam, the first step is for
you to believe you can achieve and set a target on the score you want
to have in the end of the day.
Overtime, I have observed that most students do not have a specific
score they want to have in the JAMB. All they do is just to read
without a specific target. However, I always encourage Jambites to set
very high score as their target. Setting a target will help you to be
focused on what you want to achieve in the exam.
2. Study smart
It is not all about studying hard; it is about studying smart. Kindly
get the JAMB syllabus and past questions, studying closing to identify
the core topics JAMB often repeat year in year out. If you can study
those topics very well, I think the job is half way done. Also,
understand your study pattern and not emulate friends. I used to have
friends who loved drinking lots of water whenever they were studying.
Hence, it is left for you to learn to study smart in preparing for the
exam.
3. Practice
I remember practicing my JAMB past questions up to a point where I
knew almost all the answers off hand. I had different forms of past
questions for every of my subjects. What I am trying to point out is
it is very important for you to practice very closely especially the
JAMB past question because it will expose you to the patterns of
questions set by JAMB. Also it has been proven over time that JAMB
repeats questions from previous years. You can be fortunate to come
across such questions during your exam.
4. Do not cheat
The prevalent thing among Jambites is relying on different forms of
examination malpractices to score very high in the exam. But
unfortunately for them, they end up having very low scores despite the
exam malpractices.
If you want to indeed score 280 and above in JAMB and eventually gain
the much-desired admission, stay away from exam malpractices before,
during and after the exam. Funny enough, majority of courses taken by
year-one students are topics selected from JAMB syllabus. So if you
fail to study now, if you still encounter those topics even after you
gained admission through the back door.
5. Rest
I know this point may seem unnecessary to you, but it is of great
importance if you truly want to perform very well in your UTME exam.
The problem most studious students do have is their inability to set
out time to have some rest. The human brain is often stressed a lot by
constant study.
Hence, it is advisably for you to always take intermittent rest. It
looks so funny to me whenever I meet students who study all night a
day to their JAMB exam. To me, such study places sheer pressure on
them. A day to your JAMB exam is for you to take out time to rest and
ruminate on what you have studied over time.
6. Gist with Friends
The popular saying that 'no man is an Island' is applicable in this
situation. As a jambites do not isolate yourself. Make friends with
fellow Jambites and exchange ideas with them because you can never
know everything on your own.
However, do not make friends with the dullards who would draw you back
all in the name of making friends; make friends with those you will
learn a great deal from.
I remember when I was preparing for JAMB in 2011, I encountered a
group of guys at the public library where I used to study. These guys
were very intelligent and I learnt a lot from them.
Aside learning from friends, making good friends helps you to be
abreast with any latest rumour or news about the exam. I know a lot of
people who could have performed very well in JAMB if they had been
exposed to timely information.
7. God factor
The God-factor can never be ruled out. In everything you do, put God
first. The bare truth is you need God's direction when preparing to
score 280 and above in JAMB. As a matter of fact, such feat is
attainable even without any 'special centre' during the exam.
Personally, I do not support or encourage students to enrol for
'special centre' for exams; I always believe in merit.
