How can I prepare for the JCECE 2025 exam?
You will be asked 150 or 200 questions depending on your subject group and 3hr or 4 hrs will be given to you respectively. To complete the exam within time you should practise questions daily with a time limit. It can help you to measure your progress in speed and accuracy. All the subjects are equally important as an equal number of questions are asked of each subject. Therefore, you need to focus on every subject equally. While preparing for Mathematics you can focus more on 3D Geometry, Matrices Determinants, Area under Curve, Calculus, Quadratic Equations, Complex Numbers, Probability, Hyperbola and Parabola. In Physics you must study formula-based questions as based on the past years’ trends it can be observed that these types of questions are asked repeatedly.
You can study PGR, Human Health and Disease, Cell, Biological Classification and Reproduction more in Biology. You need to prepare Living World-related questions such as national park, dates and scientific names. Biomolecules, Chemical Bonding, S, P, D, and F-Block Elements are the most important topics in Chemistry so practising questions from these chapters can give you good marks. Questions are asked from above mentioned topics repeatedly so you must focus on these topics more. You can solve previous years’ questions and MCQs to know the question pattern. Daily practice of question papers can increase your speed and accuracy.
