Common Mistakes to Avoid in JAMB Exam
Published on March 7, 2025
Many students lose valuable marks in JAMB because of avoidable mistakes. Here are the most common errors and how to avoid them.
1. Not Reading Instructions Carefully
Before answering any question, read the instructions properly. Misinterpreting instructions can lead to unnecessary mistakes.
2. Spending Too Much Time on Difficult Questions
If you get stuck on a question, move on and return to it later. Don’t waste too much time on one question.
3. Guessing Blindly
Instead of guessing randomly, try to eliminate incorrect options. This increases your chances of choosing the right answer.
4. Poor Time Management
JAMB is a timed exam, so practice with past questions to improve your speed. Learn to pace yourself and allocate time to each section.
5. Not Practicing with CBT Software
Since JAMB is a Computer-Based Test (CBT), practicing with CBT apps will help you get familiar with the system.
6. Ignoring the JAMB Syllabus
The syllabus outlines the topics to study. Ignoring it means you may focus on the wrong areas. Always study according to the syllabus.
