4.BEFORE THE EXAM (PLANING HOW TO STUDY)

(b) Determine the time of  study to be allocated to each subject from the total time you worked under (a) above

(c) Strategize the most important topics from your syllabus and  from past question papers and allocate the time available for each subject over these topics.

(d) Write down the dates and time for each topic as a program.

(e) There is no need to panic even if you have only two weeks before the exam. This program more or less becomes the time–table you will follow.

(f) Remember that you cannot allow your self-doubt or whatever is outstanding in any subject to tie you down or hold you hostage from planning your study. After all, failure in one subject will not and cannot determine your fate as shown below.

(g) Juggle with a combination of scores in your head noting your weak and strong subjects so that you don’t let one subject destabilize your plans or get you down.

 (h) Determine within yourself  that:

-Before each study period make sure  you have the following available with you – study program, JAMB syllabus, JAMB past questions and answer booklet, Objective answer sheets for practice, revision note or “red note”, textbook summaries  or the actual textbooks and notes for reference.

- You will attend your lectures regularly.

- Since it is not easy to sit down and start to read meaningfully, your study period should be set at times that will make studying like fun e.g. schedule your studies before something you consider very nice and enjoyable like T.V (PREMIER LEAGUE MATCHES) or snacks or a telephone call i.e. include something that YOU like on the timetable.
