1. Get your JAMB subject syllabus
JAMB syllabus is an official document that contains all the topics that JAMB will ask their questions on in a particular subject.
This syllabus is our first guide on how to study JAMB past questions because it will help you to focus on questions under the topic(s) that JAMB will repeat this year.
Download your JAMB subject syllabus, master the topics in it so that as you study past questions on that subject you can focus more on questions under the topics in the syllabus.
2. Have your JAMB subject textbook(s)
Every year, JAMB recommends a list of textbooks for you to study on each of your subjects.
But why do you even need textbooks to study JAMB past questions?
This is because there will always be some answers that are incorrect or need further clarification while studying.
When this happens, textbooks are your best option in confirming such answers.
Go through the list of JAMB recommended textbooks for your subjects and see if you already have one.
If not, at least get any good textbook on those subjects and keep them near you while studying JAMB past questions.
3. Choose your study style
You can either study JAMB past questions on a particular topic in different years or you attempt all the questions on different topics in a particular year.
Your choice depends on how you wish to prepare for that subject in JAMB.
For example.
If you are struggling with a topic, we advise you to first get tutorial on that topic and then attempt only JAMB past questions on that particular topic to keep you focused and speed up your improvement.
But if you are good at 60–70 percent of the topics in that JAMB subject syllabus, then study JAMB past questions by year.
4. Which year should I start from?
Start studying your JAMB past questions from the latest year available.
This will expose you to any new format of questions that JAMB has introduced and also help you observe repeated questions that you will later see in other years.
Once you are done practicing the latest year of JAMB questions, count 10 years back and pick 5 random years of questions.
For example.
Ten years back from 2020 is 2011. Pick five random years of JAMB past questions from 2011–2020 and continue your intensive study.
We recommend this strategy because JAMB often repeat past questions from 10+ years ago.
So when you pick 5 years within that 10 to study, chances are that many of those questions will be asked again this year but may be in different format.
5. Confirm your answers
This is the most important part on how to study JAMB past questions because without confirming that your answers are correct during practice, how can you be sure they are correct during your JAMB exam?
Once you are done answering the questions, check the same past questions for the correct answer to each number.
But take note,
Some of the answers in JAMB past questions are either incorrect or need further clarification — which is where your textbook comes in.
For every answer you missed, go through that topic in your textbook and confirm what the correct answer really is.
Alternatively,
