Help & Study Tips

Everything you need to get the most out of UTME·Prep Console, plus exam habits that reliably raise scores.

Frequently asked

How many subjects do I write in UTME?

Exactly four. Use of English is compulsory for every candidate, and you choose three others based on the requirements of your intended course.

How long does the real exam last?

Two hours for all four subjects combined — 180 questions in total (60 Use of English and 40 for each of the other three). Our mock uses the same clock and auto-submits at zero.

How do I practise past questions?

Open Past Questions, filter by subject, year or topic, and answer in sequence or shuffle the set. Each question reveals the correct option with an explanation after you answer.

Can I add my own questions?

Yes. The Upload page accepts single questions through a form or a batch paste in JSON or CSV. Uploaded questions join the bank instantly and appear in practice and mocks on this device.

Is my progress saved?

Your practice accuracy and mock results are stored on your device, so you can close the tab and come back later. Clearing browser data resets them.

Study tips

Practise under the clock

Speed matters as much as knowledge. Two hours for 180 questions is about 40 seconds per question — run at least one full mock every week.

Attack Use of English first

It carries 60 questions, the largest block of marks. Comprehension and lexis questions are the fastest points on the paper.

Work backwards from past questions

JAMB repeats question patterns heavily. Study by year, note the topics that keep appearing, then revise those topics deeply.

Never leave a blank

There is no negative marking in UTME. Eliminate two options, then choose — a considered guess is always better than an empty answer.

Ready for a full rehearsal?

Pick four subjects and sit a complete timed paper exactly like exam day.
