Introduction
Hello students!
My name is David, and welcome to our first JAMB English tutorial series. In this lesson, we’ll tackle top 50 JAMB English questions you should expect for the 2026 examination. These questions are drawn from past trends, official JAMB syllabus, and exam patterns, ensuring you focus on the most relevant areas.
Before diving into the questions, it is important to set clear goals for your JAMB exam. For example, you might aim for 350 overall, breaking it down into English 95, Literature 85, Mathematics 90, and Science 80. With the right preparation, this target is achievable and can guarantee admission into any top course or university in Nigeria.
Let’s get started with the questions and answers.
Question 1: Opposite in Meaning
Instruction:
Choose the word that is most nearly opposite in meaning to the word in capital letters.
Word in Capital Letters:
HASTY
Options:
A) Prompt
B) Rash
C) Deliberate
D) Speedy
Correct Answer
C) Deliberate
Explanation
- Hasty means acting too quickly without proper thought or caution.
- Deliberate means acting carefully and intentionally, with full consideration — this is the opposite of hasty.
- Prompt, Rash, and Speedy all suggest quick or impulsive actions, which are similar in meaning to Hasty, not opposite.
Hence, the correct antonym is Deliberate.
