Do you know that we
sacrifice a significant portion of our lives in pursuit of our career dreams?
We all have dreams. You might wish to become a physicist, engineer, or
lecturer.
You might not realize
how much sacrifices are been made to actualize that dream of yours. You are
sacrificing. Your parents or sponsors are also sacrificing a lot to ensure that
your career dream is brought to life.
Money, time, and effort
are all sacrificed. Now, it is not over. There is another challenge that awaits
you and that is JAMB.
There is no admission
into the tertiary institution without a good result in JAMB. It is so
unfortunate that so many students are now failing JAMB.
Some students have been
writing JAMB for the past 2 years. Some even more. This is not because they are
not destined to pass JAMB or because they are not intelligent, it is however
because they do not follow simple principles.
Yes, principle, there
are principles if you wish to pass JAMB excellently in one sitting. Some
principles would help you to score above 300 in JAMB.
Luckily, these
principles are not so hard.
Why do some Students fail JAMB?
I have observed some
strange occurrence concerning JAMB and I would love to share that with you.
I have noticed how
brilliant students fail JAMB. The first time I observed this, I was in shock.
These students were reading their books but they still failed JAMB.
I have observed how
average students pass their JAMB excellently in one sitting. These students
were not so brilliant but they passed their JAMB anyways in one sitting.
What might have gone
wrong? The answer to that question is so simple. It is the negligence of simple
principles.
If you obey follow
certain principles diligently, I can guarantee you that you would pass JAMB
excellently in just one sitting.
How to pass JAMB excellently in one Sitting (How to score above 300 in JAMB)
1. Know your Subject combination:
2. Study Early:
3. Study your Past Questions:
Normally, I would have
said study your textbooks or notebooks, but I didn’t say that. Although this is
not the first point I am drawing your attention to, it is surely important.
Studying your past
questions is the first and probably the most important principles of scoring
above 300 in your JAMB.
Why is the study of past
questions so important? Normally, JAMB consists of questions prepared by
professional examiners. You may never know what questions may hit you.
You may choose to read
the whole of your textbook, which will only lead to confusion and probably
failure.
Your past questions
should become your guide or your lamp. Study it diligently. If you study it
diligently you will notice this similarity in the questions of several years.
In other words, there is normally a flow which indicates a standard rule the
examiners of JAMB use to prepare the questions.
So, begin to study your
past questions if you wish to score above 300 in your JAMB.
4. Practice your Past Questions Regularly:
5. Understanding the Examiner:
How would you understand
an examiner that you haven’t met before? Could it be magic? No!
Through a constant study
of your past questions, you can establish what JAMB examiners need students to
learn.
Through a regular study
of your past questions, you will find out that some topics are given priority.
In other words, questions prepared in JAMB are usually from certain topics and
the numbers of these topics are not so many.
Penning down these
topics would do you a lot of good. It is the secret to knowing your examiner
and scoring above 300 in your JAMB.
6. Study your Textbooks According to your Past Questions:
7. Read your novella diligently:
Every single year, JAMB
releases a novella for students to read. As a result, questions would be
prepared to judge your understanding of the novella. Most students end up
losing good marks because of their lackadaisical attitude towards reading this
novella.
If you truly need to
score above 300 in your JAMB, you should read this novella with diligence.
8. Familiarize yourself with the use of a computer:
9. Time yourself as you practice:
JAMB is not only a test
of your understanding or intelligence; it is also a test of your speed.
You will need to work on speed if you wish to pass JAMB excellently in one sitting.
I would advise you to
practice at first without setting a time boundary. As time progresses, you will
need to test your speed. Do not allow this to be often, as it may make you lose
focus on what really matters.
Thrive for a better
understanding of each of the topics that questions are likely to be prepared
from but create time to work on your speed.
10. Study with your friends and have Fun:
This is an interesting
and an effective way to enjoy your reading. Studying with your friends is an
interesting way to gain more knowledge subsequently increasing your chances of
passing JAMB excellently.
Studying with your
friends for JAMB has a lot of advantages attached to it. An important advantage
is that you may pick up a new idea from your friends that would be relevant in
passing your JAMB excellently.
11. Make God your friend:
God is a spiritual
factor on this list. It is important to involve God if you wish to pass your
JAMB excellently in one sitting.
This is because there
are so many unfavorable factors that one may not be able to control. For
instance, I have seen someone whose JAMB result was canceled because the center
failed to meet JAMB’s requirements. Although he made up to 280 in his JAMB the
result was canceled which made his effort useless.
Some JAMB centers have
naughty computer systems. This has led to the failure of many.
In most of these cases,
there is nothing one could do except God shows mercy.
This, of course, is not
a religious blog but I must advise you to make God your friend if you need to
score excellently in JAMB.
