Good development. Undergraduates can relate to below experience.

How technology is Phasing out 'Wickedness'

Focus: Undergraduate years.

After sitting for an exam, I shift focus to the next exam. Sometimes, it is challenging to concentrate on studying for the next exams. This happens when your classmate reveals after a difficult exam, "the exam questions were drawn from 2004 past question" and then adds, "the lecturer lifted all the 2004 past question, he no even comot anything".

At such times, one keeps asking rhetorical questions, 'why did I not study the past question'. The hard truth is that some Undergraduates keep past questions and study materials away from their course mates so that they can score higher marks.

That narrative is changing with Q and A App. Q and A App holds Study materials, Scholarship resources and Past Questions and Answers for Undergraduate and Post Graduate Students across all Nigerian Universities.

The Undergraduate Past Question materials are available for FREE. The App developers are committed to sourcing materials for all Nigerian tertiary institutions.

As at today, July 17, 2018, Adekunle Ajasin University Akungba Economics Department (100L - 400L) exams Past Questions and Answers are available on Q and A App. Unilag Post Graduate Entrance exam Past Questions and answers are also available on the App.

JAMB, WAEC, NECO and NABTEB Past Questions are also available for Free on Q and A App. We are looking forward to partnering organisations that are willing to support our vision to make study materials easily accessible to learners at all levels.
