Common Candidate Mistakes to Avoid

Assuming Physics doesn't matter because the course sounds purely biological — it's compulsory for JAMB and O'Level.
Forgetting that O'Level Mathematics is required even though it isn't one of your 4 JAMB subjects.
Not checking that all 5 O'Level credits are from a maximum of two sittings if the institution doesn't accept combined sittings.
