How to be successful
in Jamb 2014
Examination
and Score 270 and
Above
Tips 1. Following the
words of the JAMB
Registrar after the
2014 exercise, Prof
Dibu Ojerinde said: “We
have gone digital in
JAMB.” What he meant
by ‘going digital’ is that
the Jamb 2015/2016
UTME examination is
going to be a Computer
Based Test. To avoid
surprises in the exam
hall, we encourage
participants to learn
how to operate a
computer system
which is as simple as
ABC.
In the examination hall,
your computer will be
“timed” when it
reached the allotted
time, it will switch off,
even if you have not
answer any
question! So the call to
be fast is needed.
Tips 2. All admission
seeking candidates in
the Jamb 2014, mostly
candidates within the
South- Eastern
environs are advice to
make early
registrations for the
JAMB 2015/2016 UTME
to avoid missing out on
available centers. Last
session (Jamb 2014),
with the record number
of 1.8 Million candidates
who participated in the
examination, Centres
were exhausted within
three months of
registrations, and late
registrants were
pushed to the North,
north east and north
central zones of the
country to take their
examinations.
if you are not in the
north, i know you don’t
want to risk going to
the North to write your
jamb exam, due to the
the terror insurgence.
A lot of candidates
miss the last year
jamb exercise due to
this problem, so we
encourage you to
purchase the form as
soon as possible.
Tips 3. From statistic,
over 1.2 Million Nigerian
Students registered
and participated in the
JAMB 2015/2016 UTME
exercise, and not more
than 450,000 of these
students were
admitted, together
with over 1.2 million
students leaving our
various high schools,
due to the low amount
to candidates who are
offered admission last
year, we are very sure
more than 2 million
candidates will
participate in the JAMB
2015-2016 UTME
exams.
We therefore advice
candidates to prepare
for the
competitions. One way
to beat it is to Jack
your
book (read your book).
Tips 5. The JAMB 2015
candidates are advised
to stay away from the
Most Selected
Institutions as outlined
below;
• University Of Lagos
(Unilag)
• University Of Benin
(Uniben)
• University Of Nigeria
(UNN)
• University Of Ilorin
(Unilorin)
• Nnamdi Azikiwe
University, Awka.
(Unizik)
• Federal University of
Technology, Owerri
(Futo)
• University of Ibadan
(UI)
• University of Port
Harcourt (Uniport)
This are popular-one of
the popular-
institutions in
Nigeria. The reason
why we advice that
you stay away from
this universities is to
boost your chances of
admission, not because
you are not intelligent,
but because admission
slots are very limited,
the competition in
these institutions is
higher and if it is not
your catchment area,
then your chance of
getting admitted is
equal to zero.
But still, if you must
choose any of the
above
institutions, please also
look for Universities
that
accept 2nd choice and
that are not too
competitive. Take note
of this as you will
remember it when
Admission commence.
Now success tips 6 will
show us courses that
are very competitive
and why you have to
ignore them.
Tips 6. All candidates
seeking Admission into
Tertiary Institutions
via the JAMB
2015/2016 UTME
exercise are advice to
be very careful in their
selection of courses, it
is no news that the
following courses have
the highest number of
applicants.
• Medicine And Surgery
• Economics
• Accounting
• Law/Civil Law
• Pharmacy etc.
• Mechanical Engr/civil/
elect elect etc.
Selecting one of the
above means you will
be competing with
thousands of
candidates for the
space, which is likely
not up to hundreds in
all the Institutions. But
if you are however
interested in any of the
above courses, you
must learn how to
balance your selections
appropriately to
increase your chances
of getting admitted.
Ensure you also select
courses that has few
number of candidates,
and by so ding, you can
be sure of your
Admission and if you
so please, you can
apply for change of
course after been
admitted.
This is as to boost
your chances of
admission, not because
you are not intelligent,
but because slots are
limited,competition is
higher and you are
getting older, plus,
ASUU would make you
age before time,
hence, make hay while
the sun shine.
Tips 7. It is important
also that you know the
accreditation status of
the course(s) you want
to
apply for in the choice
Institutions before
submitting your
application.
What is Accreditation
of course?
Some university offer
courses that has not
been approved by the
National Universities
Commission
(NUC) , and if you end
up in one of those
departments, you
would have wasted
your years for nothing!
Because you won’t be
given any original
certificate! For
example; Medicine and
Surgery has NOT been
accredited in the Benue
State University, BSUM
and many others
Universities, and
candidates who is
admitted into
BSUM will end up
spending 8+ years in
vain.
How will you know if
your course has been
accredited in your
choice institution?
You can know this
from the Jamb 2015
Brochure that will be
given to you when you
purchase the Jamb
2014-2015 UTME Form.
Also you can drop your
comment and we will
let you know if you are
good to go.
Tips 8. Most
Institutions requires a
cut-off of 240
in the JAMB-UTME.
(example of such
institution is
University of Ilorin ) the
minimum cut off for
Medicine in Unilorin is
240 and 220+ for major
courses, while
admission at the
University of Ibadan
and Unilag begins with
your O-Level results,
herefore, its very
important that you
have the basic
requirements of the
Institution before
applying for admission.
In fact, this apply to
almost all the
Institutions in Nigeria.
Ensure you have your
COMPLETE O’LEVEL
RESULTS for your
chosen courses before
buying Jamb, if you
don’t have, you are
only going to frustrate
yourself. Even when
you are admitted, you
will be screen out after
they collect your
acceptance fee and
school fee.
Tips 9. DO NOT apply
for admission into
Institutions outside
your catchment areas,
else, you risk your
chance of being
admitted.
Tips 10. Take note:
Once you have
submitted your
application form for the
JAMB 2015/2016 UTME,
there is no more
opportunity to initial
any change,
therefore, we advice
candidates to check all
the
fields properly, including
passport, names, first
and
second institutions,
finger prints before
submission, because all
would be verified
before you are
admitted for the JAMB
2015 Examination.
