2. Link up with candidates: Link up with other JAMBites to share knowledge, ask questions and engage in revision. There are two outcomes from this, meeting them might help reduce your tension or may increase it more.

2. Gather Your Exam Materials: When going for JAMB, you will need some materials like your exam slip, pencil, and a plain sheet (this is for candidates that will write subjects that involve calculation but nothing should be written on the sheet). You can package them into one bag.
3. Plan Your Journey to Your Exam Center: we believe before a few days to your exam, you must have printed your exam slip and have known the town you will be writing your exam.
Now, it is time for you to plan your journey by tracing where the center is located, and how much you have to pay as transport fare to there.
More importantly, you should make sure you keep the money for miscellaneous like, eating and so on. Also, make sure you go there with a phone that you can easily be reached in cases of emergency (but you may not be allowed to enter the exam hall with it).
How to Prepare for JAMB the Night Before the Exam
Finally, these are helpful things to do and how to prepare for your JAMB exam the night before your exam day.
1. Do Final Revision: in your final revision, it is better you revise your revision notes (the important things you jotted down while studying). But if you still have enough time, you should revise more than that.
In your revision, try to figure out some of those things that you have learned which were confusing to you at first and test if they have been stored in your memory. This should be done throughout your day.
Eat Light Food: After enough revision, it is advisable to take your bath, and eat. At this point, we recommend you to eat light food only on the night and day of your exam.
Avoid heavy food that could make you get lost in deep sleep and avoid food that might make you feel heavy and lazy. Also, avoid food that may cause a running stomach.
Some of the food to avoid on the night and day of your exam include:
- Fufu or any other heavy swallow
- Pap (akamu, ogi, or custard)
- Food with too much pepper
- Beans (especially porish beans)
- Garlic (because of bad breathe), etc.
Sleep Early: it is not advisable to have a sleepless night on the day before your exam. If tomorrow is your exam, then you have to rest your brain as much as possible (8 hours is recommendable).
At this point, we recommend that you sleep well at least on the night of your exam day because that will help you to escape dozing in the exam hall, or having headache due to brain stress.
