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:

Next, you would need to make your past questions become part of you. You will need to practice and practice it until you finally become perfect.

If you can practice each and every year, please do, it will help a great deal.

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:

Remember, I told you that there are several topics are given preference to. Unremitting study of your past questions would help you know these topics.

You would need to go the extra miles in understanding these topics deeply.

Your textbooks and notebooks are great information resources for this task. These topics are few and would give you a focus when reading.

You should note that for some topics, the examiner usually goes in-depth in preparing the questions while for some; the examiner is usually shallow when preparing the question.

This is a big clue. It is an indication that the examiner needs you to know some topics more profoundly than others.

This is necessary to simplify your study while making it very effective. With this idea, you are on your way to scoring above 300 in your JAMB.

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:

JAMB is a computer-based test which means you would be using a computer to answer your questions.

Familiarizing yourself with the use of a computer is therefore very important if you wish to pass JAMB excellently.

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 your 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 out time to work on your speed.

10.            Study with your friends and have Fun:

This is an interesting and 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.
