Hello Devs, i have a cbt Desktop app as a side project, the app is strictly for Jambite. Now, my problem is how am gonna get these Jamb past questions, its gruesomely tedious to start writting/copying paste into database. I really need shortcuts/suggestion. Please Help if you know or have anything. Thanks...

Get in with the companies producing past questions and get the soft copy from them which can be parsed into xml or whatever format you want.

What you're looking for is an API not a company, i don't know whether there is a publicly available API for this purpose.. If there is non, just follow VenantCode's recommendation, but think about the stress of updating and adding questions for subsequent years.

Yes, i know i need an API, and i did understood what venant said. I have the pdf copies of the past jamb questions, but i dont wanna go through the stress of copying and pasting questions. Reason why i have come here is because i can luckily find someone who has done this kinda project before and have maybe Json OR XML rep of these questions somewhere...

If you are willing to pay for it, I think one guy in this programming section offers what you need ( I think in XML format)

That would be the extremely perferct way of doing it but i doubt such api is available publicly
