baffles me a lot whenever I meet
with Jambites who struggle to 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 write-up which I
titled “7 Secrets of getting 280 and
above in JAMB.” The seven secrets
are discussed below;


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 FREIND
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.
