I was part of those invited for the Computer Based Test (CBT) organised by Dragnet on behalf of Flour mills Nig. Plc for experienced Internal Audit officers.

Just before I went for my test, I came on this forum to seek help with materials but the only response I got was from an individual who prefers to help only after I must have paid him but I will give the much needed help to those who need it without any payment.

My test was done yesterday (15th July, 2013) and before then I was filled with apprehension because I did not know how to direct my preparation. I ended up reading almost anything in order to prepare myself but got there only to find out that most of what I read were not relevant.

The test has two sections: Verbal and Quantitative tests. The verbal test has about 30 questions which you are expected to complete in less than 20 minutes; while the Quantitative test comprise of 20 questions which has a time frame of just 30 minutes.

For the verbal test, you will be given a set of comprehension passages to read of which a statement will be made at the end of each passage.

Based on your understanding of the passage, you are expected to choose from 3 options i.e 'True', 'False', or 'cannot say'. In order words, if your answer choice is TRUE, it implies that the statement made can be directly inferred from the passage. If your answer choice is FALSE, then it means that the statement made does not follow from the passage while if your answer choice is CANNOT SAY, it implies that there isn't enough information to give a TRUE or FALSE answer.

The above question type can be gotten from any good GMAT aptitude text. I will advice that you read the statement first before reading the passage. This would help you avoid time wasting, because with this approach, you might not need to go back to read through the passage a second time to get your answer.

If you choose to adopt the above method, please do read through the passage and understand it because you will need to apply this understanding subsequently, as they tend to repeat the same passage after some time. Understanding a passage will help you choose an appropriate answer without necessarily going through the passage again when the passage is repeated. This can buy you the much needed time.

For the Quantitative test, you will be allowed to use the on-screen calculator. Please get used to using this because if you are not familiar with its use, you might end up wasting time instead of using it to your advantage. The questions are basically to test your ability to interpret graphical representations e.g bar graph, pie chart etc, use ratios, percentages e.g comparing percentage increase and decrease between two periods.

If you can cover the SHL sample questions then you won't find the Quantitative test a problem. When you practice with SHL questions, try and do the full practice test. This can be done a number of times in order to improve on your speed and accuracy. You can get this on http://www.shldirect.com/en/practice-tests/

PS: There is no need to practice any abstract reasoning test. I wasted my time practicing this before my test. Don't make the same mistake I made

Most of all, pray, work hard and be calm. Get to the venue on time to get properly rested.

Goodluck!

DISCLAIMER: Do note that what I gave up there is strictly for those invited for the Internal audit CBT for experienced persons which is organized by dragnet on behalf of Flour mills for 2013. I do not know if the format will be the same for other tests organized by dragnet and I am assuming that since this test is standardized for invitees there is a chance that the format will not change.

I have sent you the materials requested.

I already did my test.

The e-mail they are supposed to send you would most likely take the following format:

Dear Candidate,

We refer to your application to Flour Mills of Nigeria PLC for the position of INTERNAL AUDIT OFFICER and hereby invite you for a Computer-Based Aptitude Test. Find details below:

Date: Monday, 15th July, 2013
Time: 3.45pm prompt
Venue: Flour Mills of Nigeria Plc. 2 Old Dock Road, Apapa, Lagos

Kindly come along with your writing materials, a passport photograph and a form of identification.

Acknowledge receipt and availability to this mail address.

Shoroye Opeyemi

The bold was the venue for my test but do note that if you were not invited, then there is no way you can 'gate crash' because the test is computer based and your details would be needed to login to the system.

Alll da best.
