• Reading ComprehensionHow to read a passage fast and answer literal, inferential, vocabulary, and tone questions accurately -- without re-reading the whole passage for every question.
• Lexis and StructureThe grammar and vocabulary rules JAMB tests most: synonyms/antonyms, idioms, concord, tense, prepositions, and sentence transformation (active/passive, direct/indirect speech).
• Cloze TestA worked approach to filling numbered blanks in a passage using grammar, meaning, and collocation clues from the surrounding sentences.
• Oral EnglishVowel and consonant sounds, silent letters, word stress, and rhymes -- tested by asking which word shares (or differs from) the sound of an underlined letter, or which syllable carries the stress.
