Bettering your Post-UTME Preparation
They
say preparation is the key to winning right, yes that’s what I believe too. But
to take it farther than that, I also believe the proper preparation is the master
key; the master key that cannot afford to not work. You can prepare and still
prepare astray and not end up winning, but when your preparation is proper is
when your chances of winning get really close to 100%. Now, as a candidate of OAU
Post-UTME, how do you prepare properly to enable your win? I’ve been a tutor for
almost a decade now, so be sure I’ve got a lot to share from experience, so let’s
do it.
Do
not let anyone tell you it’s impossible to score 20/20 in the Post-UTME test,
because believe me, you can, and I say this because I have seen such score a
few times; it’s hard, but not impossible. So if you are still very shaky about
how your O/Level points and your UTME points added together have been low, I
need you to believe you can still build your aggregate points with your Post-UTME
score. But how do you make that happen? Get this first, it is very important
you get yourself to a tutorial center with experienced tutors. There is nothing
they will teach you at the tutorial center that you are not capable of figuring
out on your own, yes, but you cannot figure experience out on your own, lest it
would be too late for when you need the lessons, and that would be you having
to learn from your own mistakes; which is never that good. So join a tutorial
center to learn from the tutors’ experiences; it increases your chances of performing
great in the test. Besides, there is how group preparation helps you put your
preparation in perspectives.
Secondly,
studying the OAU Post-UTME past questions is good, but here are the mistakes
you should never make doing that: (1). don’t believe OAU would repeat any one
of those questions, just see the questions as the pointer to what OAU Post-UTME
test questions look like. (2). Don’t believe the answers behind the past
questions are absolutely correct (especially when the questions and answers aren’t
statistical), believing the answers on the past questions are the absolutely
right answers would get you to not open your eyes to the mistakes OAU likes you
to make in the Post-UTME test. Besides, for all you know, there might be
something you know very well that the authors of the answers on the past
questions are yet to know. So despite the answers they give, you still have to
really work your solutions out your way and know how they got the answers and
why they chose a particular option. (3). The past question is supposed to be
your study guide not your textbook; you’re supposed to get from it what
direction should your studying go, it should not be what you study lonely. So get
you some textbooks and use them in line with the past questions. It works
better that way.
Lastly,
don’t read wide! Don’t do it! Don’t go and be reading some long essays on your
subjects, you do not need that, that’s going to waste your time. Your studying
should be about points not about analysis; you are going to be tested majorly
on remembrance, speed and accuracy, which means the questions you will be
answering will mostly be about what you know, but the aim is to test how fast
you can provide what you know rightly. So reading wide will not help you on
this as the more you read is always and almost the more you forget or can't remember
quickly. So focus on points not analysis. If you do these three things
religiously, and you don’t allow the exam moment fright catch you, and your computer
doesn’t mess things up for you at the exam hall, I'm very certain you will get
over 95% of the 20 marks of the Post-UTME test. I wish you the best of luck as
you try.
