You Post UTME Exam is fast
approaching, here are a few last
minute tips and tricks to help the
students prepare well:
1. Concentrate on the topics that you
have already covered and about
which you are confident. Trying to
learn new topics at this time will only
waste time and lower your
confidence.
2. Prepare a revision timetable and
study during the last days before the
exam according to this schedule.
3. Decide beforehand how much time
you will spend on each section. Work
this out according to your strengths
and weaknesses, however, make sure
to not favour the sections
you like as the cut-off for all subjects
must be cleared.
4. It is a good idea to revise all the
formulas and difficult problems for
each subject.
5. Don’t try group studies in the last
days. The build up of anxiety and
stress will be more within a group,
and it is bound to influence you.
6. Practice from question banks. Take
a good question bank which has
solutions as well, so you can check
yourself. Also, practice the past years’
post utme papers, this would give you
an idea about the upcoming Post
UTME exam.
7. While attempting mock papers try
and pace yourself, so that on the day
of the exam you have an estimation
of how much time will you take for
each section.
8. It would be better if you set a
target score range for yourself and
practice according to that. This would
help you work on your strong areas
and make it easier for you to achieve
the score for which you’re aiming.
9. When you get the exam paper on
the day of post-UTME exam, do not
start attempting it blindly. Read the
entire question paper carefully and
identify your strong and weak points.
Then begin with the easier questions
which carry more marks and move on
to the more difficult questions.
10. Above all, be sure to remain calm
and not let the stress get to you. Take
frequent breaks and relax your mind.
In order to do well in the exam, your
mind needs to be stress-free.
I wish you success in your
examination. Share with friends.....
