What's this na
These people have gone mad o.

I agree with you 100%...
Fill in the gap in Jamb

Thank God i have not written yet...
This drama of confusion and absurdity is suspense-filled!

SaintHephzibah:
pls go and read back that guy's thread. How can he say he's a genius in english but yet he doesnt have a good command of english. Read his thread meticulously and you will realize it's a load of irony

He scored 307 doesn't mean he above mistakes nah...

You should of all peeps should understand that.

Elxandre:

He would have scored 360 had it been he's good in English.

someone scored 307 : https://www.nairaland.com/2964434/really-suprised-jamb-307-score
Fantastic news and really inspiring...

It made rubbish of all those negativity spew here
abeg! there's no greater magic than reading and believing in one's self...
if you fail to prepare, you prepare to fail

Naldogen:
blv it or not, this is the worst jamb ever. those who haven't written are lucky. Now this is the clue, for those of u about to write, make sure u cross the 300 mark cos whichever result u are seeing out there is minus 100 marks. so when u are expecting 290, it will turnout to be 190.This is more than negative marking.good luck everyone. there was a centre where no one cross 140, so na so Nigerian students con dull? Jamb is a scam

Your comment is as useless as the 'ueue' in queue...

bigneorapz:
lets wait and hear from the senates. First

Lol, Which senate? Those looters and kleptomaniacs...The green chamber is no friend of the masses o! Talkless of Nigerian students...

You're entitled to nothing,man!

Tolutost:
I don't rilly believe in reading ur brains out to pass optionnal exams...sumtins re jst ok initiative demanding...its too much reading dat makes 2 options luk alike.....God himself is incharge of ur scores though, if u have 190's maybe he finks dats wat will benefit ur life or make u wise in one arear of ur life.........I remembered I had 199 twice consecutively.....God knws best

you said that It's too much reading that makes two option alike...
I don't get your point, man.

studying hard makes examination easier and God won't help you if don't study either...

Donpre:
with the mass failure my eyes have seen... scoring 250 will be like winning a Nobel prize along side a Grammy in an award show hosted by aliens from another freaking galaxy


#GoodluckToThoseWritingNext

lol! Damn sarcasm!
epic comic relief.


Impossible doesn't exist though.

SaintHephzibah:
this just came in from a friend, he sent it to me on whatsapp.
English 48
literature 51
Government 51
yoruba 49
total = 194
course applied for : communication and language arts @ U.I
any hope? This guy read and devoted his whole time on reading, only to recieve this kinda heartbreaking score

Brother! I'm soo speechless!
Very saddening indeed...Everywhere is too gloomy.

Life has many ways of testing our will, either by having nothing happening at all or by having everything happening at once.

There's still hope...He should get a change of course/ institution form immediately it's annouced...

This thread is a grave-yard o!

slimmybaarbie:


Erm...not really

See, so he might not 'enjoy' as much as you think.

kinxlink:
Who has ear let him hear, for those intending to write d new jamb software is just a software dat grades base on your ability so far, i.e for d first set of question u ans if u are convincing i.e u answers correctly then u will be graded as strongly, but if u fail then u will b graded as difficult.....so dis is my advice *
1)Any question u are not sure of skip it
2)answer the subject you know best and try hard to get atleast forty percent of your first set of question
3)any any question you know as fast as possible*any question you know d answer is not there leave it
4)when you notice dat a particular question has two answers, answer d first
Dis software marks by probability i.e if the software examines and find out that you fail most of your question then it will mark u unable in all your other subject whether you are good in it or not, after your final result, the software will then dive your score with a particular probability, those who d software grade as good will b divided by 1.0, indicating strength, y those who are graded difficult will b multiplied by 0,sometimes, depending on your probability ratio, and dnt answer with fear, this software is a genetic software it can determine if it is in somebody's blood to guess, xo b careful and pray,noting can change God's decision.

A lot of typo errors...couldn't understand your explanations fully...please edit the text a little...

I percieve the points you have raised are so important!

Bruh, You crammed this?!

Abi nah copy and paste.

Elxandre:

This is a load of bullocks!
And you know it.

Why weren't results like this last year?
Do you honestly think the past questions are so erroneous that it's unusable?

Mannn....

Not all past question booklets are accurate. Infact, no past question booklet is ever accurate!

SaintHephzibah:
check on myschool.com and click on those who wrote today, their scores are so low. I also got to realize that a greater part of those who scored low keep on blaming jamb but fail to realize that the past questions and answers on which they rely on are also full of grievious errors. Instead of studying via syllabus and text books, they cram on past questions and answers. That contributes a lot to the failure recorded in jamb.
As far as we have read our topics in paralled with the syllabus, we have a great certainty of attaining not less than 250.
I'm dead serious. I have just been rejuvinated

Bro, look at the bigger picture...The number of jamb candidates in myschool.com.ng is less than 1,000 (lemmie be a bit generous).

The total number of candidates for UI alone is 30,000+...and you dare use myschool portal as a yardstick to measure total performance...that's unforgivable o!

The best step to take is read,read and read till you get confident...Thank God, You've been rejuvenated!

Yustash001:
that's why I said...I thought I was going to make it but I couldn't...

You were faced between the hammer and the anvil, man.
It's not your fault.

Yustash001:
I had exam in my school...so before I could finish...time had already gone...I got to my centre and pleaded bt they told me there was nothing could do even though they are not fully through....

Meaning that the exams you had in your school were more important than Jamb...abi?

Please say yes!

SaintHephzibah:
says who? UI cut off still remains 200 bro

Brother, He might be correct...
Jamb policies are very flexible and varies yearly...
If not so, why is there an option for second choice?


Those universities he listed have the highest applications each year with very limited space.

Yustash001:
And finally...I missed my Jamb exam...I thought I would make but I couldn't..

This is indeed saddening!
Why?

dannyfillz:


Yeah bro
Over study self lol

SMILE....in every situation

slimmybaarbie:


Lol, to be sincere, I'm losing hope already

Mathematics
English

9th of March

Suprise at your comment o!

Let's assume, you've not seen people's score...you would still be confident and hopeful...right?
Hope is a very powerful phenomenom o!
It's the very thing that keeps buildings in their place without them tumbling down.

Have faith in yourself and abilities...
Brace yourself!

SaintHephzibah:
yeah he did, as a matter of fact, he was a genius in literature, he was in that our whatsapp arts study group. And i counted on him to attain from 250 up. So as a matter of fact, i'm so scared

He wrote his examinations in extremely different circumstances!

Except you think He deserves better than your very self...
Don't be dettered, bro.

Guys, everything would be fine...Just read your books and believe in your self.

As for me myself and I, I refuse to be intimidated!

dannyfillz:

I managed to score 204
What amazed me most was my score in literature, I had 42 imagine, despite studying all the topics in the syllabus

I guessed most of the crk answers and I had 64 in crk so what's the usefulness of this new method cos I don't seems to understand how it works

Did you study the reccomended texts and answer questions that are centered on that,brother?

I need a detailed direction to my destination in Ojora Road, Ikoyi...I am coming from Ogba bustop...
I need information like:
1.) the busfare and
2.) the time of arrival i.e how many minutes or hour can the journey take.

please be specific as possible (i no wan lost). Thank you!

Elxandre:
This will give you an idea on how Item Theory Response grading works.

https://tech.knewton.com/blog/2012/06/understanding-student-performance-with-item-response-theory/
For a test of this difficulty, maximum favorable conditions should be ensured.

Come-on, we can't be this evil to ourselves.

Quite devilish.

Bro, that was a fascinating read...
This is not just scoring of grade...This is test of abilities!
The more difficult questions you answer correctly...the better your chances of having great scores...

Item response theory won't minimize or curb guessing at all but it would sure separate the sheep from the pack of wolves.

Hadeehart101:
I reprinted my slip today and my seat number has been changed from 037 to 034.
Also, the center number has been changed from C146XX to C36801.
Please, has anyone noticed this? I hope I have no reason to panic? Thanks.

This is your first Re-print...abi?
So there's no reason to panic...it applies to everyone!

The rate of candidates seeing result with very low score and claiming it's not theirs is indeed worrisome.

Who knows...It might just be anti-guess software a.k.a item response theory

Guys, you need to be very careful while picking options o! Softwares are not human and are very indiscriminate: they don't know which candidate is brillant and which is not...

Think very well before you answer and remember if you are not very sure of a question...leave it!
