| What is the Marking Scheme for JAMB Exam? by Dee235: 12:05am On Mar 14, 2016 |
My first experience in writing JAMB exam was in SS3, in 2001, of course I went in naive and didn't know much about the exam. I scored 187 out of 400. I was surprised at my score. The following year I prepared harder for the exam, my Dad enrolled me in one of the best private lessons, I studied hard as well. I heard rumours that negative marking was applied in marking of the exam, and also heard that some questions had no answer. So I determined to study harder and not to guess at all, and I would only answer only questions I was very sure. God so kind I scored 286 that year and it was enough to gain admission into Engineering. I didn't start schooling that year because the school I intended to study was on strike. I had already secured admission by virtue of my score. So I enrolled for JAMB exam the following year just for fun of it, I applied the strategies I had earlier used. I avoided guessing, I only answered the questions I was very sure of. For the English section I answered the much of the questions, but for the other 3 subjects I avoided guessing. This time I scored 291. I was expecting to score lower than the second time. I was surprised and delighted at the score. I noticed from the exams, from the 50 questions in Maths, the more questions I answered in the section I scored just around 67 when I thought I should score around 90 or 95. I also noticed if I scantily answered only the questions I knew in Chemistry say 20 or 25 of the questions, without trying to guess aimlessly I scored around 70 or so. I don't know if you had similar experience, but up till date, I don't know if JAMB has officially released their marking scheme. I think they should release it for transparency, and to assist students in their studies and preparations. |

in a nutshell, you wrote your jamb in 2003...my brother/sister, that was when the system of education in this country was good.... in fact, there was no post utme during that time.... now, things have fallen apart....need I say more? 1 Like |

Monalisa185: But still even at that time, we were still told that the system of education had fallen. And that the years before us, the system was good. |

kaysolo726: I think part of this can be resolved if JAMB officially release how they get to mark their questions, and how students are scored. They can't just add marks arbitrarily. |
