koyes: Loooool,infact eh,when I wrote that stupid test around febuary,I regreted ever wasting my transport fare to lagos.If any one passes that test,Its either he/she is abnormally fast or he/she has strong connection.Have you noticed how they keep advertising vacancies for graduate trainees more than once within a year?What does that mean to you?
It means that candidates keep on failing and they are trying to look for candidates that can atleast averagely pass their miserable test. When I saw d crowd that left the center when I got there, I was shocked.When I saw d number of candidates we are to write d test together,I felt more shocked and when I was about leaving d center, d crowd outside getting ready for the exam are unimaginable & unbelievable.I said to myself,except God approves of our success, many of us are helpless even if you do well in d exam. After today, I take off my mind from KPMG and look elsewhere.What will be will be

@Mascot...such is life.. But when did u receive invite for the test cos i received a msg from Dragnet on Thurs night asking me to confirm my attendance at the upcoming KPMG test by emailing them yet they never sent me details of the test like date, location and time. Could it be the test you wrote or they ll conduct another one?
I recieved an email & also a text message invitation for the test initially by fot administration and KPMG respectively containing my test location,login details and other requirements before dragnet on that same Thursday u talked about sent me a text message asking me to confirm my attendance for the test. I think it is dsame test I wrote,verbal, numerical and logical reasoning.

Lol u guys are pretty funny. But u are missing the whole point. I agree dis xams are pretty tough, but look @ it another way.. It is called aptitude test for a reason. Dey don't xpect u to know all d answers or finish on time, but to use ur discretion in some cases. For instance d synonyms aspect if u don't knw d xact word, chk d options I bet u'l see d odd one out but u need a rich vocabulary tho. And d numerical aspect. Dude once u read d questions and u don't av any idea, skip it! When u r done, u can take a shot @ it. And if yo still clueless, Baba choose any option. Well jst my 2 cents. Best of luck in future xams.

I dont know if there companies really wants to recruit. Even the hr cant answer the question within tin time given and score up to 50% with their negative marking. Even the time tickling is another distraction during test. God help us. 5 openings and 5000 candidates will sit for the test. Whats that.
