Nigeria Immigration Recruitment: How To Pass The CBT by Nairalanda(m): 8:40pm On Mar 25, 2015
Hi guys,
The last Nigeria Immigration Recruitment was paper based and the story of what happened after the recruitment exercise we all know. It is no longer news that the another test will soon come up. The difference is just that it will be a Computer Based Test (CBT). CBT is not something new among Nigerian students nowadays because of its use for different kinds of exams such as JAMB and Post-UME. The format for those who don't know what CBT exams are is that you will be provided a computer to do the test instead of the regular paper and pencil type. You will follow a series of questions on the computer from which you select the correct options from. The worry for any student is often to not get into the examination hall to see the nature of an examination for the first time. To pass the CBT examination, you can follow the following steps.

[1] Get used to computers.
If you don't have your own computer, you will be advised to visit a cafe and get used to the mouse, keyboard and the monitors. If you are the type that browse the internet using phone only, this will be strongly advised. Doing this will give you the confidence to doing exam with a computer.

[2] Check the Immigration website
The immigration website will serve as a reference for you to know the history and news about them. They will have different information that will not only help you for the examination but will also get you to know if it is a place you would actually like to make a career.

[3] Get used to Current News
Most of the CBT examinations will test your current affairs. If you have watched the Who Wants To be a Millionaire TV shows, you will see that you can't read for a current affair exam. However, paying a little more attention to what is going on around you, you would stand a better chance.
[4] Practise few Math Questions
It is very common to have some aptitude tests in recruitment examinations. If you can do aptitude tests and pass within a short time, it shows you are a smart person that can take decisions within a short time, and that perhaps why they include them. You may not be a genius but practising lots of Aptitude test questions, regardless of the examination you are preparing for, you stand a good chance to do better when you see a new set of questions.

[5] Practise timing yourself with CBT questions
You may read every part of the Immigration site but if you don't get test, you never can tell what you have retained. [url]Pass1Time.com[/url] is a platform developed by some Nigerian Lecturers and available for anyone preparing for CBT exams. It will be recommended that you try all the immigration tests as well as other exams there. It will give you your scores and the correct answers at the end. Don't deceive yourself though by checking answers first.

Nice one, Op. The topic should be 'how to prepare...' not 'how to pass...' though. All you listed won't guarantee success in CBT.
