I hope you will find the following useful in writing any of the bank test.


Bank’s Test Formats
Access Bank
The test is made up of two papers, 50 questions each and you are expected to make
at least 50% in each (25marks). Its a combination of Maths, English, Critical
Reasoning and a little bit of Current Affairs (States and Capital).
Bank PHB
Aptitude test is administered by Leading Edge Consult and it is basically a
combination test comprising about 70 questions on different test areas: Verbal,
Synonyms, Antonyms, Word analogies, Basic arithmetic, Shape comparisons, Mirror
images of wall clocks & other stuffs.There are no options in many of the questions. I
think the time is 50 mins or 1hr. Bank Phb test is very difficult. The good thing about it
is that cut off mark is as low as 30%.
CitiBank
The test is a booklet in 3 sections. A, B ,C , Maths (mostly Tough Fractions), like 2/3
+ 4/7 all over 7/8 - 5/7 = 5/4 -6/5 then Logic like these vivid ones being:
1. A gave hand shake to B; and B gave hand shake to C. A gave hand shake to C (
True or False)
2. If " degg is boobo and tarra is kiki, is kiki boobo?
Then Comprehension, Word and Opposite /nearest in meaning,
My advice: You must be good in Maths, Logic and must be very very FAST, Its a
tough test I must let you know, so Practice like MAD!!!!
Diamond Bank
Diamond test lasts for 1hr. It comprises 3 parts:
Part I
Simple Maths (1-10)
Chart/Graph Interpretation/Analysis (11-15)
Part II
English (1-10), e.g White:Black, Up: ?
Sentence completion/Appropriate fill in (11-15)
Part III
Critical/Logic Reasoning (1-10)
Series/Sequence (11-15)
Time is defintely short. There's no -ve marking, read the instructions carefully,
SCORE HIGH (because I think there cut-off is high)
Be careful to listen to the interview tips, immediately after the test (Very Important)
Ecobank
Ecobank test is really tough and challenging. You really need to prepare very well
because it's interpretation of graph throughout. It's like CAMBRIDGE EXAM. Anyway,
people still pass it and you just have to prepare very well. Nothing is difficult if one
prepares very well.
Equitorial Trust Bank
They are SAT related questions,the maths is the most difficult and time wasting
because they are logical reasonings: For the English we have Comprehension,
Sentence Correction, Verbal Reasoning. You have 30mins for the English of 40
questions and 30mins for the Maths, 30 questions. The test format is numerical
reasoning, graphical interpretation,then verbal reasoning. Just go to www.shl.com
FCMB
Their test is purely shapes, series i.e. 2, 4, --, 10 you understand what I mean? And
GMAT English. The limiting factor is time constraint, you need to be fast but do not
guess as there is negative marking. You have to compare symbols and choose which
is the opposite of the original from options given.
I think its called quantitative aptitude.
Fidelity Bank
It consists of verbal and quantitative reasoning questions. The Maths questions are
easy and the Verbal questions are just passages, sentence completions and the
likes. Read your GMAT 2007 or anyone and you are good to go.
First Bank
They have 100 questions. But the time is very short.
The first part is a long comprehension, which one could possibly spend at least 15
minutes on. It has only 10 questions. This part is time consuming, avoid starting on
this part. People who started on the first section didn't finish up to 60 questions at the
end of the test.
The second part is English (Verbal reasoning). It requires a bit of thinking, although
its fairly easy. Don't start here as well.
The third part is Math. They are simple as well, but the chances are that you might
spend over 1 minute working out each answer. If the format is as before, you are also
adviced not to start with this.
The forth part is on Current Affairs, with a multiple answer style. This is easier and
you spend lesser time.
The fifth (final) part is on Critical reasoning. This is also very easy. It is a maximum of
60mins or 80mins. You will only use writing materials like pencil, cleaner and maybe
a pen. Calculators are usually not allowed and you will be provided a plain sheet to
work out your answers.
Guaranty Trust Bank
their test format is in three parts. You have Verbal Reasoning, Numerical Reasoning
and Grahical Interpretation. All they need is your accuracy how u can think on the
spot.They are usually simple questions but the challenge is you have 24mins for 80
questions. So you have to be fast in thinking.
IBTC
It is more of GMAT. About 20 GMAT Mathematics and English. Some 'Nearest in
meaning' English as well and you will be asked to work some mathematics without
options i.e. no multiple-choice objective in them. know the meaning of words likeloquacious,
poignantly,avarice,
Intercontinental Bank
Their format is GMAT. It contains Maths and English. 100 questions. Go and look for
IEC Gmat text book:2004 edition. I heard it is scarce in the market. If you get the text
book, craM all the questions and answers. All their question were lifted from
there.(Word for Word); Cut off is 80%
Oceanic Bank
Oceanic bank test is 70 questions to be answered in 60 minutes. 15 Maths,
Comprehension 10, Grammar 20, Current affairs 15 and business questions 10. Just
relax and put in your best. Pass mark is 50% which is 35 out of the 70.
Skye Bank
The test format is 80 questions comprising Maths, Verbal Reasoning, Spatial
Orientation, Lateral Reasoning and 1 essay. all in 1hr 15mins.
Spring Bank
Their questions are usually from G-Mat, practice your G-mat, 2003,2004,2005,2006,
infact any G-mat at your reach because that is where their questions usually come
from. Meanwhile its always English and Mathematics.
Standard Chartered Bank
This is the test format. Maths Section is simply graphical interpretation. You need to
work on that. 70 questions. The English section is very simple. You will be given a
passage and you will be asked to interprete. 75 Questions. Try and score up to 80%.
That is their cut of mark.
UBA
Just read your GMAT. Then also have an idea bout current affairs, e.g. Who's d
senate president, when was nations/africans cup played and in which country, Who's
Bank PHB's MD(sounds strange for UBA, right?); The test is simple: Maths, English
and Current Affairs. Maths is 15 questions, English is 15 questions, Current Affairs is
20 questions.
Wema bank
Their test is a total of 80 Questions,consisting of two parts. MGTH1 and QLRT1, 40
questions each. You have to be very fast since you have 40 minutes for each part.
The test is conducted by WAEC. The MGTH1 is made of GMAT, English and
General Information. Then the 2nd part is made of Maths, logical reasoning and
critical reasoning. The test is not easy so you have to study hard for it.
Zenith Bank
The format is: Numerical Reasoning, Comprehension, Sentence Correction and
Critical Reasoning. There are 100 questions and 2 hours to finish up. If you can get
Barrons foreign GMAT. They use questions from foreign GMAT. Both the
comprehension, critical reasoning, and the rest. The questions will be very
voluminous and you have to read fast.
