#RemarkJamb2016

Mustiboy:
Guy, pls help me o. I was looking 4ward 2 studying english language and literature in u.i and d subjects requirements are two art subjects and a social science subject including english language. So, I chose literature, c.r.k, government and english but on monday when I went 2 reprint my jamb slip, I found out that had subtituted my c.r.k with economics and I don't have much time 2 prepare for it coz my exam is on the 12th. Though, that's not d problem. The problem now is what course can i change 2 that's in line with my subjects combo. And pls, I don't want a course that's got 2 much aspirants aspiring 4 it coz english language was just 926. Thanks in advance.

You can change to one of the following courses

Philosophy
Anthropology
Sociology
Political science

When I saw 203 at first I thought I was dreaming i have been preparing for this exam since last year October,even my friend that didn't open his book jst for once had 256

Even with the 40 marks added to my score I still believe I deserve more

But God dey sha

Post utme will differentiate us

lordizak:
If u can score high, you won't be on the social media displaying stupidity. #GrowUp.

I won't exchange words with you FOOL

It's obvious that results of candidates that did the exam on 27 & 29 of Feb is nothing to write home about even with the added 40 marks, those who read hard were given a low score then those who slept were favoured. On the additional 40 marks it only shows JAMB have a problem and they are so confident in this there CBT .Hence they don't want to come out and castigate it. #RemarkJamb2016 .

This is one of the reasons why ui never values high score in jamb, with minimum score of 200 u have the same chance with those with 250 above.

That is why the University of ibadan never cares about your jamb score jst score 200 then you have the same chance with those with 250 above

Jamb is not a true test of knowledge

I did mine on the 27th of Feb too not happy with my score even with the additional 40 marks I think they are only trying to cover up their flaws

Let leave this behind and focus on the post utme exam.

Alfred Tennyson CROSSING THE BAR



The sunset and evening star have come; it is time to go to sea. The fullness of the tide will peacefully draw home the speaker. Soon it is even later: twilight and the evening bell, and then darkness. It truly is time to go, without sadness. The stream may take him far beyond “Time and Place,” hopefully to his ultimate destination where he will see his “Pilot face to face” after crossing the bar.



Analysis


This short but evocative poem is often placed at the end of volumes of Tennyson’s poems, as he requested. Hewrote it in 1889 when he was 80 years old and recovering from a serious illness at sea, crossing the Solent from Aldworth to Farringford on the Isle of Wight, off the mainland of England. It is said that Tennyson composed it in twenty minutes. Tennyson’s illness and old age may have contributed to this very personal and memorable meditation on death.The poem contains four stanzas of four lines each, with a traditional ABAB rhyme scheme. It is written as an elegy, utilizing an extended metaphor of a sailor crossing the sandbar between the tidal area and the sea to represent a human being passing from life to existence beyond death.The poem opens by evoking the fall of night, a reference to the poet being in the twilight of his years. The evening star points his way, and he feels the “clear call” of death. He is almost ready;the poem is tinged with excitement and acceptance. He expects the tide will be full, carrying him smoothly and peacefully out of life, just as it carried him in. This process reflects his internal contentment with his absorption into the natural process of life and death. There should be “no moaning” when the time finally comes.In the last two stanzas, the time has come; it is moments away from darkness. He expects no sadness, The sunset and evening star have come; it is time to go to sea. The fullness of the tide will peacefully draw home the speaker. Soon it is even later: twilight and the evening bell, and then darkness. It truly is time to go, without sadness. The stream may take him far beyond “Time and Place,” hopefully to his ultimate destination where he will see his “Pilot face to face” after crossing the bar

ANALYSIS



before god created man, God has created all the wealth, (having a glass of blessing standing by)when God created man he pour this blessing in him dispersed all over the land and man sign the in which he is going to use the wealth(let us pour in him all we can, let the world riches dispersed the lie, and contract into a span) strength is the that human being received followed by wisdom, honor pleasure when God pour almost he now withheld, which is rest of mind. God said if he give the jewel(rest) to man, man will adore this than him, man will also be in chasing the nature instead of God of nature. in the last stanza God told man to keep all the wealth he has given to him, but without rest of mind, ( let him be rich and weary) at last this weariness will put man back to God

THE PULLEY ~ GEORGE HERBERT


When God at first made man,Having a glass of blessings standing by,Let us (said He) pour on him all we can: Let the world's riches, which dispersed lie,Contract into a span.So strength first made a way; Then beauty flowed, then wisdom, honour, pleasure: When almost all was out, God made a stay,Perceiving that alone of all His treasure rest in the bottom lay.For if I should (said He)Bestow this jewel also on my creature,He would adore My gifts instead of Me, And rest in Nature, not the God of Nature:So both should losers be.Yet let him keep the rest, But keep them with repining restlessness:Let him be rich and weary, that, at least,If goodness lead him not, yet weariness may toss him to My breast.

I told you bro I can never score 41 in literature NEVER

Until everybody has a share of the National cake lol




I knew something was wrong immediately I saw my score in literature..... I couldn't even score up to 50 despite giving it all my best shot


But I still manage to score 204 sha but something should be done before it gets too late

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

Yeah bro
Over study self lol

SaintHephzibah:
that's what screwed you up. Someone that wrote yoruba told me that the thing been tough eh, considering those yoruba literature stuffs. Why didnt you offer government nau?

I guessed most of the answers in Yoruba as well especially the literature stuff and I had 56 in Yoruba

42 in English language

SaintHephzibah:
Christ have mercy. Just thank God that you're eligible for U.I's post utme. I'm now afraid. How about government? What did you score?

I did Literature, Crs, Yoruba and English language

SaintHephzibah:
i share with you in this. Or even if they still organise post utme. They should be lenient on us cos we just passed through a hard way

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

bigmoon:
dis is unfair ooo JAMB.... dis is really really unfair.... i just got an alert nw notifying me of my jamb score... after several days of hardwork... several sleepless nyt of reading, even in dis season of heat...i would still be in my room reading and sweating like i neva attended a secondary school...i knw dat, what i got is not what i deserve... cos i knw what i did...... i was expecting anytin above 200.... see hw jamb cut the rope of my dream, giving me 157!!!!!....oooohhh...im sooo sooo dejected right now

Bro I'm thinking the same now
I know of a friend who read like a mad man for the exam, he ran to my house this morning that he scored 165....i was shocked Cos this guy is jst like a mentor to me.
My MTN sim has been blocked, if not I would have seen mine too.

SaintHephzibah:

NiRfreak:
help!! I want to register today, does ui offer education economics..pls i need this info to register......and....is jamb cut off for every course 200?

Yeah ui offers education & economics
For you to study any course in the University of ibadan you must have at least a minimum score of 200

SaintHephzibah:
ya but sort of deleted it for now to avoid distraction though, but would certainly download it again cos there was an earlier arts study group i created to elaborate on the syllabus especially "literature". Anyway hit me up 08060423357

An art study group.....
That will be really interesting

SaintHephzibah:
my friend and i choosed the same course (Religious studies Education) and my subject combos are English, Crk, Govt and Literature, but my friend substituted Literature and choosed Economics. Will this affect him? Or will he move along with the subjects during u.i's post utme?

He should have choosed another art subject to replace literature.
Government and economics are both social science subjects
Buh I think he's good to go since it requires crk and other subjects frm art or social science

SaintHephzibah:
you told me you'll be going for philosophy right? I checked today and the statistics is 337 candidates oh. Keep on trying and be relentless and resilience bro. God is your strength

337

Last year was 500 above

With God we will make
