What Are the Most Repeated Topics in JAMB Maths?

The most repeated topics in JAMB Maths are those topics in the Maths syllabus that JAMB sets questions from every year. They are the topics in Maths that JAMB seems to consider very essential. They are the bedrock, core or foundation of Maths. So JAMB examiners cannot finish setting Maths questions in a year without picking one or two from each of those topics.

Now that’s what this post is all about — to give you insight into those very essential Maths topics.

Importance of Knowing and Studying the Most Repeated Topics in JAMB Maths

There are two key examinations students take prior to their admission into tertiary institutions. One is the Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) while the other is the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).

Out of the two exams, candidates fear the UTME more. Some of the reasons for this fear may be…
1. The exam is on CBT mode.
2. The syllabuses are rather vast.
3. Time for preparation is always too short.
4. The questions are technical and a bit advanced.
5. It is UTME that largely determines whether a candidate would gain admission or not.
6. And so on…

Considering points number 2 and 3 above, we see why candidates need to know the JAMB most repeated topics in all their subjects.
