How did village students overcome challenges to score 200+ in UTME?
In addition, he remembered how his cousin, who had a score of 187 in the 2023 UTME, improved their score to 243 this year.
He expressed his profound gratitude for the investment, stating that it had yielded significant returns. With great enthusiasm, I am delighted to announce that, based on the data collected thus far, none of the students achieved a score below 200 in their JAMB examination. I attribute this success to the blessings of Jesus Christ.
“Most people had scores above 250, and several even went above 300. Seeing my younger relative, who received a score of 187 in the previous year’s JAMB, improve to a 243 this time around is really encouraging.
In the 2024 UTME, 77% of candidates had a score lower than 200, according to a previous study.
Previously, on October 2, 2023, Onyia tweeted that the results of his “village youngsters”‘ UTME for 2022 were a “disaster,” pointing out that over 70% of the applicants failed the test.
The students signed up for “intensive morning and evening drilling” in order to improve their UTME performance in the upcoming year (2024) and made a commitment to alter the narrative.
In an effort to alter the story, the students committed to participating in “intensive morning and evening drilling” in order to improve their UTME scores in 2024.
“We took the challenge upon ourselves for it not to repeat itself again,” he stated.
What resources are available to help village students prepare for UTME?
The Educare CEO noted that the learners also took the Computer-Based Test “once monthly with a large pool of 16 years past questions across different subjects.”
He decried the low level at which some of the students were familiar with the computer system while wondering how they (the students) would succeed in the examination.
“In the CBT, we track their performances on different topics and lay more emphasis on their weaknesses across different subject topics. One common thing we noticed is that many of the youngsters are alien to computers and can’t even use a mouse or keyboard.

During the day of the JAMB (UTME), he posed the question, “How were they planning to succeed in JAMB (the UTME) when they could have probably been using a computer for the first time?”
For students who got a score of 300 or higher, Onyia said that funding opportunities would be available, and that all students’ test fees would be paid for.
“It’s an eye opener, and our mission is for all of them to score above 250,” which was the text of the tweet. We are covering all of their JAMB (UTME) test costs and giving full grants to everyone who gets a score of 300 or higher.
