For Nigerian Parents Preparing Children for WAEC, NECO & JAMB

    Your Child May Be Reading Hard — but Preparing for WAEC & JAMB the Wrong Way.

    Every year, intelligent students read textbooks, attend lessons, solve past questions and still come out with scores far below what their parents expected.

    Some miss Medicine, Engineering, Law or the course they really wanted. Some stay at home for another year. Others eventually accept whatever course is available because their score could not compete for their first choice.

    The child actually studied. The problem was not necessarily laziness. The problem was how the child prepared.

    The Story Behind Prep50

    An Award-Winning Teacher Helped Us See Something Most Students Were Missing.

    Several years ago, while studying the preparation methods used by an award-winning Maltina Teacher of the Year, something became very clear to us.

    She did not treat examination preparation as something students should suddenly begin when WAEC or JAMB was around the corner.

    She exposed students to examination-standard questions as they learned each topic.

    If the class had just finished Electrolysis in Chemistry, the students did not simply close the notebook and move on. They saw how examination bodies had asked questions from Electrolysis.

    Why wait until SS3 before a student sees how WAEC or JAMB asks questions from a topic the child has already learned?

    That question stayed with us.

    Because when you think about it carefully, it exposes a major weakness in the way many Nigerian students prepare.

    Think About Your Own Child

    A Student Can “Finish” a Topic Without Ever Discovering Whether He Can Answer the Examination Questions From That Topic.

    Your child goes to school and learns Acids, Bases and Salts.

    The teacher explains it. Notes are copied. Assignments may be given. The class moves on.

    The child may even come home and tell you:

    We have finished Acids and Bases.

    But what does “finished” really mean?

    • Has the child seen how WAEC has tested the topic over the years?
    • Has the child seen how JAMB can change the wording while testing the same underlying concept?
    • Has the child answered enough questions to discover where he is confused?
    • Has the child made mistakes now — when there is still time to correct them?
    • Or has your child simply read the note and moved on?
    That difference may not look serious in SS1 or SS2. It becomes very serious when JAMB is only weeks away.
    The Problem With Most Past Questions

    Past Questions Are Useful. But the Way They Are Usually Arranged Can Hide What a Student Needs to See.

    Pick up a conventional past-question book. You will probably see the questions arranged by year.

    Traditional Past Questions

    • 2025 → Question 1, Question 2, Question 3…
    • 2024 → Question 1, Question 2, Question 3…
    • 2023 → Question 1, Question 2, Question 3…

    This is only good when the student has finished studying and wants to take a mock or CBT simulation.

    VS

    Prep50

    SubjectTopicSubtopicExamination Questions

    Questions from many years are brought together according to what they are testing.

    Now imagine your child has just finished Electrolysis.

    In a year-by-year past-question book, Electrolysis questions may be scattered across 2025, 2022, 2019, 2017, 2014 and 2010.

    Your child may never see them together.

    So the student may answer one Electrolysis question today, another one six weeks later, and another one three months later.

    The pattern remains hidden.

    Prep50 does something very simple: it brings the relevant questions together.

    So after learning Electrolysis, your child can sit down and see how the concept has been tested again and again.

    And when your child finishes any topic in school, during lessons or from a textbook, he or she can immediately open Prep50 and practise questions that WAEC, NECO and JAMB have asked from that same topic.

    They do this from SS1 to SS2, and by SS3 they have mastered the topics and there would be absolutely no reason to cheat.

    Our Big “Secret”

    1. Learn the topic
    2. Open Prep50 and see how examiners test the topic
    3. Practise real exam questions
    4. Find mistakes and areas not covered by the teacher
    5. Go back and fix them

    It is not magic. It is not a shortcut that removes studying. It simply changes the relationship between learning and examination practice.

    Let Us Make It Practical

    Imagine Two Students Who Have Just Finished the Same Topic.

    Student A

    1. Finishes Electrolysis in school.
    2. Closes the notebook.
    3. Moves to the next topic.
    4. Three months later, sees one random Electrolysis question in a mock examination.
    5. Gets it wrong.
    6. By then, much of the topic has already faded.

    Student B

    1. Finishes Electrolysis.
    2. Opens Prep50.
    3. Attempts 10, 20 or more questions from that same topic.
    4. Gets some right. Gets some wrong.
    5. Discovers exactly where the confusion is.
    6. Returns to the textbook or asks the teacher.
    7. Attempts similar questions again.

    Which of these two students would you rather send into JAMB?

    That is the difference we are trying to create.

    What Begins to Happen When They Start Using Prep50

    Your Child Starts to See What the Examiner Sees.

    When several questions from the same topic are placed together, something important becomes easier to notice.

    Patterns. The student begins to see:

    • The areas examiners repeatedly return to.
    • The formulas that keep appearing.
    • How one concept can be disguised with different wording.
    • The options that repeatedly trap students.
    • The difference between knowing a topic and being able to answer examination questions from it.

    This changes the student's question from:

    “Have I read this topic?”

    to:

    Can I answer the questions examiners ask from this topic?

    This is the kind of mindset we have seen in candidates who score 300+, and that is what we want for your child.

    Why Starting Early Matters

    The Biggest Advantage an SS1 or SS2 Student Has Is Not Intelligence. It Is Time.

    WAEC does not examine only what your child learned in the final few months of SS3.

    The examination draws from work accumulated across senior secondary school.

    Yet many students do not seriously begin examination-standard practice until SS3. By then they are trying to:

    • Complete unfinished topics
    • Understand new SS3 topics
    • Revise SS1 and SS2 work
    • Attend lessons
    • Solve past questions
    • Prepare for WAEC
    • And prepare for JAMB at almost the same time

    That is a lot of pressure.

    If your child is still in SS1 or SS2, you have something the SS3 student wishes he had:

    Time.

    Use It.

    Let the child begin seeing examination-standard questions as topics are being taught.

    “But My Child Already Has Past Questions.”

    Good. We Are Not Asking You to Throw Them Away.

    Past questions are important. Prep50 itself is built from past examination questions. The difference is how your child uses them.

    Traditional Question

    “What did JAMB ask in 2025?”

    VS

    Prep50 Question

    “What has JAMB been asking from Electrolysis?”

    Both approaches are useful.

    As examinations approach, say a few weeks to the exams, students should still write complete timed CBT tests and full mocks which span across all the topics.

    But while learning and revising, topic-by-topic practice is extremely powerful.

    Actually, that is how humans everywhere learn. From Nursery to PhD, it is always one topic or subtopic at a time. It allows the child to see the relationship between what was taught and what is examined.

    Why We Created Prep50

    What About the Child Who Does Not Have an Exceptional Teacher?

    Not every Nigerian student has access to the same quality of teaching.

    Some children attend excellent schools. Some have teachers who understand both the subject and the examination. Others are in schools struggling with teacher shortages, incomplete syllabuses or teachers handling topics for the first time.

    Some parents can afford private lessons. Others cannot.

    And most parents themselves cannot sit down and teach Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Mathematics every evening.

    We cannot put an award-winning teacher inside every Nigerian home. But we can put a better preparation system into the child's hands.

    That is why Deacons Publishers developed the Prep50 Past Question Series.

    The Database Behind the Books

    Prep50 Is No Longer Simply Collecting Questions. We Are Studying the Examination Itself.

    Over the years, the questions behind Prep50 have grown into a database organised by subjects, topics and subtopics. That gives us an opportunity most ordinary past-question books do not have. We can analyse the examination. We can ask:

    • Which topics appear most frequently?
    • How often do old concepts return in new wording?
    • Where do WAEC and JAMB overlap?
    • What areas repeatedly trouble students?

    And What About Results?

    We Will Not Tell You That Buying One Book Magically Gives Every Child 350.

    A child must still study, practise and be disciplined. A good teacher still matters. But we can show you real students, real stories and real results from students who used Prep50.

    Now Let Us Talk About Money

    Is Prep50 Expensive?

    That depends on what you compare it with.

    As parents, we already spend money preparing children for these examinations:

    • School Fees
    • Private Lessons
    • Transport
    • Data
    • Exam Registration
    • Textbooks
    • Different Past-Question Books

    And if the preparation fails completely?

    • Another JAMB form.
    • Another year of lessons.
    • Another year of transport and feeding.
    • Another year watching classmates move forward while your child tries again.
    The cost of one extra admission year can be far greater than the cost of the books you use to prepare properly now.

    That does not mean a book guarantees admission. It means preparation materials should be judged by the role they can play across the entire preparation period — not only by the number printed on the price tag.

    Prep50 is designed to remain with your child throughout the preparation season. The child can return to the same topic again and again. The book is not consumed in one lesson. It becomes part of the child's study system.

    “I Will Buy It Later.”

    You Can. But Ask Yourself What “Later” Costs.

    Prep50 is more useful when a child has enough time to move gradually through the topics. The best time to begin structured practice is not one week before JAMB.

    Every week a child practises properly is another week of mistakes discovered early, topics revisited and confidence built.

    And remember: these are physical books. During peak WAEC and JAMB periods, some titles can sell out before reprinting is completed.

    Start while there is still time to use the books properly.

    Before You Leave This Page

    Ask Yourself One Uncomfortable Question.

    If your child sat for JAMB tomorrow, how confident are you that he or she has actually practised questions from every major topic in the four subjects?

    • Not: “Has my child been reading?”
    • Not: “Does my child attend lessons?”
    • Not: “Does my child own past questions?”
    Has my child systematically practised the examination questions that come from what he or she has learned?

    If the answer is “I am not sure,” that is precisely the problem Prep50 was designed to solve.

    A Parent's Role

    You Cannot Write the Examination for Your Child.

    You cannot sit beside your child every night. You may not remember enough Chemistry to teach Electrolysis. You may not understand today's Mathematics syllabus. And you cannot force a teenager to become serious overnight.

    But there are things a parent can control:

    • You can choose the school you can afford.
    • You can provide good teachers where possible.
    • You can insist on discipline.
    • You can encourage the child.
    • And you can make sure that when the child finally sits down to prepare, the right preparation tool is already there.
    Do Not Wait for the Result

    The Worst Time to Discover That Your Child's Preparation Was Not Enough Is After JAMB Releases the Result.

    By then, explanations will not change the score. By then, “we should have started earlier” does not bring back the months that were lost. Preparation decisions matter because examination day eventually arrives whether the child is ready or not.

    Your child's result will eventually come out.

    The question is whether that day will reveal preparation — or reveal the absence of it.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Questions Parents Usually Ask Before Ordering.

    Still unsure? Chat with us on WhatsApp

    • Prep50 uses past examination questions, but the major difference is the organisation: subject → topic → subtopic → examination questions. This allows a student to practise what has just been learned rather than relying only on year-by-year question sets.

    • Yes. Prep50 does not replace learning. The preferred sequence is: learn → practise → identify gaps → return to the lesson → practise again.

    • No book can responsibly guarantee a particular score for every student. Prep50 provides structured examination practice. Results still depend on the child's effort, prior knowledge, teaching, discipline and consistency.

    • No. In fact, topic-by-topic practice is especially useful when the student still has enough time to practise gradually as subjects are being taught.
