Prepclass.com.ng - Prepare for JAMB, WAEC, NECO, GCE. Prepclass is an online education platform for students to score high in jamb by practicing past question on the internet.
PrepClass.com.ng is a proposed online education platform that seeks to improve the overall academic performance of students ( for now just high school students in their penultimate and final year) via a self- learning and fun environment by engaging students to take charge of their academics, achievements/ successes with past question from previous examination, social media integration, video, photo and text content. With our adaptive learning technology, students would be able to identify weak subject areas with high frequency of repetition and get firsthand knowledge on how to solve such questions with detailed solutions

1. Introduction
Prepclass is a web based, mobile responsive platform that provides students with high quality
content related to local exams. Our current focus is on Jamb and we intend to also provide
content for post-Jamb and university exams.
Students gain experience with writing computer based tests, learn their strengths and
weakness and see detailed answers and explanations to various questions.
2. Our local education problems
In 2011, out of 1,500,000 Jamb candidates, 100,000 scored
250 and above. 31,000 candidates scored above 270
In 2012, out of 1,500,000 candidates 72,000 scored over 250.
910 candidates scored 270+
In 2013, out of 1.6 million candidates only 30,000 scored 250+
628 scored above 270
We see a steadily worsening performance. Complicating issues
Is the fact that JAMB is phasing out paper based tests, by 2015
all Jamb candidates will write Jamb exams on a computer.
3. Why Prepclass?
PrepClass seeks to address the high failure rate and lack of innovation in the education sector in Nigeria. Our
platform provides students a simple, comprehensive alternative to traditional practice for examinations.
