How to use the syllabus
1. Study the outline
Open a subject and every section of the official outline is there — from “Number Bases” to “Basketry” — so you never revise a topic the board has dropped.
2. Read the objectives
Each content item sits beside the candidate objective the board expects. That wording tells you the depth required: define, calculate, compare or explain.
3. Practise immediately
Every topic has a practice button that opens past questions for that subject, so you can test yourself the moment you finish revising.
Every outline is the board's published syllabus content, reproduced topic by topic. Where JAMB and WAEC publish general objectives and recommended texts they are included with the subject; trade subjects are listed with the same detail as the science papers.
Know the syllabus. Then practise it.
Reading the outline is half the job — timed practice is what moves the score. Start a free CBT session and see exactly where you stand.
