First-Class Graduates Speak on JAMB and WAEC, Share Tips to Pass Them
- First-class graduates Udeh Ifeanyi Monday and Chukwuemeka John Okparaeke share valuable advice on excelling in JAMB and WAEC exams
- Udeh emphasises consistent preparation and past questions, while Chukwuemeka highlights the critical role of studying past questions thoroughly
- Their insights aim to guide current students towards academic success through strategic study techniques and dedicated practice
Passing the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) and the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) is a top priority for many students.
In a short interview with Legit.ng, two first-class graduates shared their experiences and valuable advice for students preparing for both exams.
Their insights provide a roadmap to academic success, emphasising the importance of consistent preparation and strategic study techniques.
Power of consistent preparation
Udeh Ifeanyi Monday, a recent first-class graduate in Accounting from the University of Uyo, achieved an impressive CGPA of 4.73.
Reflecting on his journey, Ifeanyi shared:
“In my first JAMB attempt, I scored 182 due to lack of consistent preparation and not practicing enough past questions. After that, I buckled down, practiced numerous past questions consistently, and ended up scoring 307 in my second attempt.”
Udeh's advice to current students is clear:
"Build a solid foundation in key subjects, work through past papers, and create a study schedule for consistent review. Seek guidance from teachers and stay focused on your goals.”
Importance of past questions
Chukwuemeka John Okparaeke, who graduated with a CGPA of 3.82/4.00 in Computer Science from the University of Ibadan, echoed similar sentiments about the significance of past questions in exam preparation.
"Past questions are crucial," he emphasised. "Read and read and read your past questions. That was something I failed to do, and it almost cost me. Know your past questions in and out."
Chukwuemeka's straightforward approach highlights the importance of thorough practice and familiarity with past exam formats to achieve success.
