The Jamb paper and pen testing method was characterised by excess malpractice, missing scripts and mass failure. It has been years since we all hated Jamb Paper and Pencil (PPT) Testing Method Due to Mass Failure. Welcome to the Jamb CBT (Computer Based Testing) Update.
Just a few years ago, the Jamb CBT method was introduced to correct examination malpractice, which became very widespread in the paper and pencil testing method. As of 2013, the Jamb CBT update really favoured so many Jamb candidates. This increased the love and general acceptance of the Jamb computer-based testing method.
The Jamb 2013/2014 computer-based examination was very awesome. I could remember how the candidates who used the ppt method (including me) were very unlucky.
Like all other Jamb upgrades, the Jamb CBT boosted 40% of Jamb results for those who filled the computer-based method in their Jamb 2013 registration form. This made all of us agree with the new Jamb cbt method.

Unfortunately, the story has changed. Many Jamb candidates have started facing challenges using the Jamb computer-based testing method. Mass Failure is now more than it was in PPT.
The quality of Jamb CBT results has begun to reduce exponentially since the 2014/2015 Jamb results were released and students have expressed their disappointment. Jamb 2021 Results was nothing to write home about. Is the Jamb CBT method going to be hated again?
What are the challenges in Jamb CBT?
The current trend in the Jamb CBT can be traced to three major factors:
- Systematic Error: Where your system suddenly goes off or stop working.
- Jamb Error: This is an error that may occur at Jamb back-end. Here, you write very well but still score 50 in Jamb.
- Human error in Jamb CBT: This is the biggest part. It is a mistake on your part.
- Mass Failure: Thousands of Candidates score below 180 yearly.
Although we can only call on the Joint Admission and matriculation board officials to correct the systematic error and back-end errors, yet you must play your own role to survive the 2020/2020 Jamb CBT update.
In this article, I will be teaching you the best way to survive the Jamb CBT update so that you can score very high in the Jamb…
Follow Registration Instructions
This is the very basic step to take in Jamb registration. Follow all registration instructions and make sure you fill in your details very well. Any major mistake you make here can cost you your admission.
Yes, many persons fail the physical clearance test even after gaining admission to study their desired course. It is following principles that make you a principal.
You need to register properly so that the stress of correcting data after Jamb registration will not affect your UTME preparation.
Prepare Well For Jamb CBT
What you are not prepared for, you are not qualified for. The exam you don’t prepare for will shock you on that day. When I talk about jamb preparation, I do not mean the baby type of preparation.
I mean strong and effective preparations as I explained in my article on How to study for long without losing concentration and how to remember everything in Jamb exam hall.
When you are well equipped with the Armour of preparation, you don’t bother about the Jamb expo or Jamb runs. This is very important.
Go Early And Ask Questions
Make sure you go to the jamb examination hall very early. If there is anything you are not clear about, feel free to ask the Jamb officials. After all, you are not writing Jamb again. Test your mouse and keyboard to make sure that their is no issue at all.
Also, check your Jamb calculator for possible errors. These simple steps can boost your exam result.
Solve Jamb CBT Questions In Seconds:
Jamb and post Utme is all about speed. You can be very intelligent and still fail if you are not fast. Be very time conscious in the Jamb examination hall. Talking about speed, the use of Jamb CBT past questions come to mind.
Make sure you start with the subject that you are the best good at and do not waste time. Write your exam with a sense of urgency, have the mentality, “I am behind schedule”. Inasmuch as you are time conscious, be accuracy conscious.

Don’t Copy
I know it is difficult to spy or cheat in the Jamb CBT examination. However, if you have the opportunity to do so, avoid it. Cheating has done more harm than good. If you think that I am joking, ask those who wrote Jamb 2013 paper and pencil method what happened.
Cross-Check Your Work Before
As a result of human errors, you may have answered some of the questions you know correctly “wrongly”. By cross checking, you will be able to identify these errors and as well score higher in Jamb CBT. Make sure the answer you click shows that you actually clicked it. You can then submit your work.
