Gauranteed success: How to score 250 and above in your 2017/2018 JAMB UTME

Did you know?

As at the year 2016 JAMB UTME was left the only channel for getting admission into any high Institution in Nigeria,

after the scrapping of post UTME. This leaves high institution aspirants with no other option but to sail through the JAMB examination. However, The JAMB body has set 180 as the minimum score and as a result, any student who scores below 180 stands no chance of being admitted into any institution in Nigeria.

You probably want to be admitted into your choice of institution in Nigeria without any delay, and I presume that is the primary reason you were eager to peruse this post  “how to score 250 and above in 2017/2018 JAMB examination.” Well, I am about to spill the beans.

            The secret of making JAMB examination in Nigeria

There are two ways you can make your JAMB UTME. Both ways will be discussed in this post.

Effective preparation: This entails studying effectively and with the right materials. In one of my previous posts, I discussed “how to study for exams.” There, I pointed out the necessary steps you need to take while studying for exams to ensure your success. Nevertheless, I will love to carry you through a journey on how to prepare for Jamb examination to score 250 and above in one sitting. Without any delay, tighten your seat belt—lets go..

Step 1. Focus: In studying for your JAMB UTME, you are expected to focus only on the four subjects you have enrolled for. Why is this important? For the reason that there is a great deal of work for you to accomplish in a short time, therefore, you need to increase your focus and channel them to the right part.

Step 2. Apply my secret study method (The 3*4 study method): Let us assume you enrolled for MATHEMATICS, USE OF ENGLISH PHYSICS AND CHEMISTRY. This is how the 3*4 method works.

(Study the chart below carefully and note that the scores used are mere speculations)

MATHEMATICS ------------------ 80%  attention

USE OF ENGLISH ----------------- 80% attention

PHYSICS ----------------------------- 80% attention

CHEMISTRY ------------------------- 20% attention

This method requires  you not to give equal attention to all four subjects. By doing this you will stand a chance of scoring higher than giving equal attention to the four subjects.

Look closely at the comparison below:

                            Normal method

MATHEMATICS ------------------ 50%  attention

USE OF ENGLISH ----------------- 50% attention

PHYSICS ----------------------------- 50% attention

CHEMISTRY ------------------------- 50% attention

                 Speculated score

MATHEMATICS ------------------ 55

USE OF ENGLISH ----------------- 50

PHYSICS ----------------------------- 45

CHEMISTRY ------------------------- 50

Total score --------------------------------- 200

                     The 3*4 method

MATHEMATICS ------------------ 80%  attention

USE OF ENGLISH ----------------- 80% attention

PHYSICS ----------------------------- 80% attention

CHEMISTRY ------------------------- 20% attention 

      Speculated score

MATHEMATICS ------------------ 75

USE OF ENGLISH ----------------- 80

PHYSICS ----------------------------- 85

CHEMISTRY ------------------------- 20

Total score --------------------------------- 260

That is it, the second method yields the best result. You are aiming at 250 or above right? With the 3*4 method you get more than that.

Step 3. Make use of the Jamb syllabus: Every question you are going to come across in JAMB examination rally round the syllabus. Therefore, If by assumption you master all the information required in the syllabus. Then all the questions the JAMB body will present will all be a walk over for you.

Step 4. Make use of past questions

In every JAMB examination, past questions are repeated or closely repeated. It happens year after year, 2017/2018 section would not be an exception I think. Make sure you cover all the past questions on your four subject, if by chance questions are repeated as usual, then it will stand as a bonus to you. Click here to get JAMB past questions at low price.

After considering these four steps highlighted above, Let me also bring to your notice an alternative method to score 250 and above in your JAMB UTME.

4 risky career choices you do not want to fall victim to

The overwhelming desire or urge to secure a job with sky-high salary lure so many people to pop into any career choice that presents itself.
As a result, many choose the wrong career path that is detrimental to their future. Before delving into any career, there are certain factors that you must consider in order to make the right career choice. Compiled in this discuss are four deadly career choices you will never want to choose if you are in your right senses.

             1.     Non lucrative career: One career choice you do not want to go into is the one that lacks lucrativeness. There are few careers out there which I know will never fall off the line, but still they will only earn you a peanut at the end each month. Everyone wants to live on their dreams (You surely want to drive your dream car and have your own house). This is exactly why you work 24 hours each day. But at the end if those dream of yours fails to come into reality, then life does not worth it. Choosing a career that is not productive will never help you reach your dreams. A factor that will deprive you of reaching your goal is a set back you want out of your way right?— If you hope for a bright and successful future, then I dare you to rule out any career that is not lucrative from your check list. Without doing that, your dream of success is just a fallacy.

            2.     A career declining in the labor market. The soul purpose of any career climber is to secure a lasting job at the end. No one derives pleasure from striving after the wind. Notwithstanding, One out of all those striving after the wind knows that they are doing so. Since the labor market is not stationary, it will be wise for you to consider the present status of the occupation you aspire, in the labor market. This will enable you to avoid choosing a career (occupation) that has declined or will decline in the labor market sometime soon.

          3.     A career not related to your ability: Many people make a career choice not because it is what they can do better nor what they really want, but because it’s what their friends, relatives and the famous people they have heard of are into. The biggest mistake you can make in life is to choose a career that does not relate to your natural talent. Choosing a career is the foundation of life because it determines how your future will be. An adage says: As you make your bed, so will you lie on it. Everyone has natural talents, but discovering and nurturing them is what counts. Choosing your career according to your natural abilities will guarantee you success and satisfaction in future. Doing otherwise will only live your future in jeopardy.

           4.     Choosing a career you do not have passion for. You know what you love, you also know what you will enjoy doing best. Then doing something else will never give you the joy you wish for yourself, you are just cheating on your own self. Consider the experience of a man named Caleb. When he was a boy he had a friend who sailed with him through his nursery and primary education level. On getting to collage his friend joined science department. For the sake of not breaking the bond of friendship he has with his friend Caleb also leaped into science. After their first two years in collage, Caleb’s grade began to drop drastically. But his friend kept improving. One of his school teacher approached him to know why he was no longer doing well in his school activities but he never saw any reason behind his dilemma. The teacher encouraged him to study hard or swap to Art since he is finding it hard to cope in Science. But he objected because he never wanted to part with his friend. Years later Caleb and his friend graduated from collage as science students and went to high school. They both struggled in high school and also graduated as medical Doctors. But something was missing Caleb has never dreamt of becoming a medical doctor… To Cut the long story short, after working in the hospital for some years Caleb decided to quite because he never enjoyed working as a medical doctor, so with the little money he gathered, he opened a hardware shop and that is how a medical doctor ended up as a trader.

Final words: We have wondered over the bitter paths of making a career choice. The four factors discussed in this article must be at the back of your mind as you go about making your choice of career. Also the experience of Caleb has so many lessons for you to consume. I hope you choose a career that will bring you joy and satisfaction in life.

Cheers!

True success and false success. What is the contrast?

Visualize this final year student, who is at the verge of graduating from a university. Prior to his final examinations,

he wakes up 6am every morning, goes to lecture room from lecture room he goes to the library before going back home. On getting home, he sleeps at 7pm and wakes up 12am, reeds through the night. This student continued this way for several months till he wrote his final examinations.

Yet, another final year student who loves partying, spends time hanging out with friends in night clubs, sleep and wakes anytime he wishes. On getting to his final examination, he visits his lecturer with a huge amount of money and other valuables-just for him to pass his examinations. At the end this two students sailed through their final examinations; graduated from the university. In summary, they both had success in their educational career. Same it is with you and everyone else. You can do all in your powers just to succeed in what ever you are doing. Nevertheless, have you ever wondered if what you get is a true success or false success? Before we answer that question, let us understand what a false and true success is all about.

                                                    False Success

False or spurious success is worse than failure. Why? Because when you fail, there is a chance that you can buckle up and do better next time. But false success will never leave you with a chance of improving. But then, what makes a success false? A success is labeled false when it comes as a result of personal influence and not effort. The illustration in the onset of this discuss portrays what a false and true success entails.

       “A false success is likened to a rotten food covered in a golden plate. Outside it looks perfect and attractive, but inside it has nothing to write home about.”

Unlike true success, false success never gives you a lasting happiness and desired satisfaction. Sincerely, no one wants to achieve a false success….But what can you do? Out of greed, fear of shame and embarrassment, you end up seeking for success in the wrong way. The result (false success)

                                          True Success

True success differs from a false one. It is not a failure in disguise. Often, you truly succeed not because of your great influence, but as a result of your relentless and spotless effort. True success is the aspiration of every student. Moreover, many fail to understand that it is not meant for the weak. For you to achieve true success, it is not easy for you must durable, determined, hard working and zealous. Cultivating these qualities is not a day job and that is why true success is not achieved by all.

                      Say no to false success and seek true success

After considering the effects of false success and that of true success, a rightly thinking person will avoid false success and start seeking true success without much delay. If you seek true success, here are few tips we have prepared for you to consume:

•     Hardworking: Hard work is the key to success, if you want true success in your educational race, then hard work will be a tool you must have in your disposal. In the educational world, hard work entails putting your studies and other educational activities first before anything else. As you know, the is no other way to educational success other than having a regular study routine. (Fetch ideas from all corners, ask questions.) Obviously, this is not easy and that’s why it is termed “hard work.”

•      Self discipline: This virtue often eludes the mind of the mass. Research shows that out of every ten persons only one has self discipline. Without having full control of oneself putting the required effort to achieve certain goal will be a very hard task. For you to be truly successful, you must nurture your abilities to control your desires and impulses. This will enable you to weed out every possibility of achieving false success.

•     Diligence: Another important ability that will guide you to true success. Being determined will enable you not to give up easily in pursuing success in your educational career, to quit along the line should be the last thought to come into your mind. Without persevering, it is real hard to get anything you seek in this critical world.

•       Having a simple eye: This is a heavenly virtue, the benefits of having a simple eye is inestimable. Greediness is the fundamental factor that leads one into achieving false success—you just want to be ahead of others and to do that you are tempted to do all it takes—but life is not always so. The only weapon against greediness is having a simple eye. Do not desire what is above your powers, but be satisfied with the little you have.

Final words: True success and false success is just like success and repeated failure. But rather be hardworking, diligent, disciplined and endeavor maintain a simple eye, as a result you will see what true success really means.

Learn how to cope with peer pressure

 Peer pressure-This is a strong pressure on youths, especially in schools and while away 
from their parents and guidance. Many youths have fallen victim to this influence. Moreover, some youths have successfully conquered peer pressure.

    AM I ALREADY A VICTIM?

Peer pressure can be so subtle that you do not realize when you have fallen victim to it. What your peers do, how they speak, what they wear may seem ordinary to you, that at times you feel being a part is just standard. When you feel that fitting among your peer is normal, you would not realize how much you have been affected. Peer influence is never eluded by anyone. In fact, the influence of your parents wanes as you grow older and the urge to be renowned by your peers grow stronger. Who would want to be a slave to another? Apparently none, you do not want to be controlled by another person, but yet that is exactly what peer influence is all about. They lure you to do what they are doing, in the real sense you are being enslaved to them. Obviously, there is every need for you to resist peer pressure.

                          A MUST READ: key facts about success you must know

 

                    HOW CAN I RESIST PEER PRESSURE?

       As no one is immune to peer pressure, it is of high importance that you should always be equipped to resist the influence from your peers. One of the factors that can help you to resist peer pressure is: Choosing your associates wisely. Show me your friend and I will tell you who you are. Those you associate with, determines your mind set and reveals what you are likely to become. So it is wise to associate with those who will have a positive influence on you.

     Another factor that can help you to resist peer pressure is: Anticipation. Suppose you see a group of your school mate ahead, and they are smoking. By thinking about the possibility of them asking you to join them, will enable you to decide either to avoid or to confront them. Anticipation can also help you to be well prepared to face a challenge posed by your peers.

      Next, think! You might ask yourself. If they ask me to be a part, what reply will I give to them? By giving in to their pressure, what will be the outcome? Suppose my parents were here, what will they likely want me to do? After thinking, your next step is to decide on what to do, as you decide think about the result of your choice. Of course you would never make a choice that will have a negative effect on you at the end.

    Finally, go into action. You may feel this is the hardest part, to be realistic, ones you have thought about something and you have made a conclusion in your mind, it will be super easy for you to work towards your thoughts. Never forget, you have the freedom to make choices. No one will stop you from doing what is right for yourself. With full conviction that what you are doing is for your own good, stand up to the challenge! Note: It takes an intrepid mind to do this. Entertaining negative thoughts will only make you lose your self confidence, never doubt your self, be resolute in your mind never to give in to the influence from your peers.

In summary, here are the isolated points for you to keep in mind, as discussed above…….

•         Avoid such people that will readily ruin your moral standards.

•          Mingle with those who have a positive mind set.

•          Seek for help when and where necessary.

•         When a pressure is becoming more intense, leave the scene immediately.
