After all the studying, solving, and practicing, the final stretch before the JAMB exam is very important. This is the time to keep your mind sharp, revise smartly, and avoid common mistakes that can cost you easy marks—especially in Mathematics.

Whether you feel fully prepared or you’re still catching up, this guide will help you finish strong and stay confident on exam day.

Focus More on What You Already Know

As the exam gets closer, avoid rushing to cover every single topic from scratch. Instead, focus on strengthening the topics you already understand. This helps you stay calm and more confident.

Go over:

• The formulas you’ve been using often
• Past questions from topics you’ve mastered
• Quick tricks that save time during the exam

By doing this, you avoid confusion and protect your strongest areas.

Revise the JAMB Favorites

Some topics appear almost every year. In the final days, go back to:

• BODMAS and number operations
• Quadratic and simultaneous equations
• Word problems
• Trigonometry basics
• Geometry and Mensuration
• Mean, median, and mode
• Probability

Don’t just look at the theory. Practice questions from each topic, and time yourself.

Use a Timer When Practicing

One of the biggest challenges in JAMB is time. So while revising, practice questions under time pressure.

Set a timer for 10 or 15 minutes and see how many correct answers you can get. This helps you build speed and accuracy, and it trains your brain to stay alert while the clock is ticking.

Don’t Memorize—Understand

You may be tempted to cram formulas or shortcuts, but JAMB questions are rarely repeated word-for-word. That’s why it’s better to understand the logic behind every formula.

For example, don’t just memorize:

• Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

Understand what each part means. That way, even if JAMB twists the question, you can still solve it.

Stay Calm and Take Care of Yourself

As the exam day gets closer, it’s easy to panic. But panic can affect your thinking—even if you’ve studied well.

So in the final days:

• Sleep well
• Eat light and healthy
• Avoid distractions and too much social media
• Stay away from “last-minute panic groups” online

A calm, focused mind works better than a stressed one.

Final Words

Maths in JAMB 2025 is not about solving every question—it’s about solving enough questions correctly and quickly. Trust what you’ve studied. Keep revising your top topics. Practice under exam conditions.

And remember: you don’t need to be a genius—you just need to be consistent and smart.

Believe in your preparation. You’re ready.
