Every year, thousands of Nigerian students sit for WAEC and JAMB, but only a fraction pass in one sitting. Success isn’t about reading all night—it’s about studying smart. Here are 7 effective hacks to help you prepare better:
1. Create a Study Timetable
Plan your subjects and stick to the schedule. This helps you balance tough and easy topics without stress.
2. Start Early
Don’t wait for exam season. Reading gradually every day builds confidence and better memory.
3. Use Past Questions
WAEC and JAMB often repeat or reframe past questions. Practice them regularly to understand the exam pattern.
4. Study in Short Sessions
Research shows the brain remembers more when you study for 30–45 minutes with short breaks, instead of marathon reading.
5. Join Study Groups
Discussing with friends helps you understand tough topics better. Just avoid turning it into gossip time.
6. Leverage Online Resources
Use apps, YouTube tutorials, and e-learning platforms tailored for WAEC and JAMB. They make tough subjects easier.
7. Stay Healthy
Eat brain-friendly foods like beans, fish, and fruits. Sleep well—your brain needs rest to retain knowledge.
