1. Don’t Tag English Difficult

Some Jambites tag the use of English as very difficult. At such, they lose interest in reading it. This will reduce their performance.

Just believe that Jamb use of English can be studied and do so with passion. Not thinking the Jamb use of English is too difficult gives you the feeling that you can score high. It gives you the calmness to study more.

2. Don’t Underrate Jamb English

Never you underrate the Jamb use of English. In fact, research has shown that people who class English as too simple usually end up with a low score in the subject. This is because they feel they know it all and not need to study.

Don’t assume that you already know English; prove that you know it by testing yourself with thousands of questions. Not underrating the Jamb Use of English makes you give it the attention it deserves.

3. Study More Idioms

Jamb English questions usually feature Idioms. The more Idioms you practice, the more prepared you are to tackle the idiom section. Answering all the idioms questions correctly in Jamb is a big boost.

4. Learn New Words daily

Always go out with paper and pen. When you come across a new word, quickly put it down. You can learn a whole lot of words by watching high-quality English films.

In any possible way, learn many words and grammar. This will prepare you for the fill in the gap, register, synonyms and antonyms session. Doing well in this area alone can fetch you 50% of the total mark in Jamb English.

5. Learn Comprehension Passages

All questions in Jamb English doesn’t carry equal mark. Jamb comprehension passages carry more marks than lexis and structure, synonyms, and other topics. You can score up to 3 marks for any English Question answer correctly under comprehension passage.

It is good to equip yourself with tools to answer Jamb comprehension questions very fast and accurately. I have completely answered the question of how to completely tackle comprehension passages.

6. Understand Jamb Interpretation

Jamb interpretation questions can be sometimes deceitful. It is good you learn the right skills to tackle questions under this session. Not all words can be interpreted as they appear in a sentence.

For example, had John visited, Joy wouldn’t have felt sick can be interpreted as John didn’t visit so Joy felt sick. Interpret this, no sooner than he arrived that it started to rain?

7. Work with Time

You don’t have time; Jamb use of English is the most time-consuming Subject in UTME. Ensure to attempt questions very fast during practice and in the exam hall. As you work on speed, ensure to add accuracy.

Don’t let comprehension passages kill your time, see how to be fast about it here. Learn as many English words as possible and be very fast while practising at home. Make sure you are able to attempt every Jamb Use of English question.

8. Practice English Past Questions

I have always emphasized on this… The more past questions you answer in Jamb use of English, the higher your UTME Score. If possible, answer Jamb use of English questions from the newest year to the oldest ones you can access.

Studying with Jamb past questions will help you to cover every topic that Jamb will set. It will as well enable you to take note of the hot topics in Jamb use of English. Nothing makes you understand the pattern of Egnlish questions like past questions.

After reading topics or checking answers to English questions, ensure to engage yourself in serious questions and answer session. This will help to test your level of preparedness.

10. Revision
