Yeah sorry, I have been off Nairaland for some days. I'm just seeing this.

First of all, I should mention that it wasn't Dragnet so things might be somewhat different for you guys. Yes, we had disciplined-based questions, engineering for me; in addition to standard Numerical and Verbal sections.

The test was pretty basic and infact suspiciously simple, and I'm sure that was what caught many people unawares, because we were all expecting Dragnet-esque questions but were faced with other seemingly minor stuff that one would normally overlook as being too simple to ask. By this, I'm referring mostly to the discipline-based (Engineering) one, which was essentially Physics and Applied Mechanics, asking questions about momentum and true/false questions about if a body collides with another body, will it move in this or that direction? Those kinds of questions sha, if you get my drift. But we were preparing for more tech and advanced stuff.

In my opinion, that section was biased towards mechanical engineering guys as those elements in the questions were found, one way or the other, in the course of our BEng degrees.

The English and Maths bits were about the same usual ones you would find on just about any aptitude test. But this one now that Dragnet is taking over again this year, I fear that the format might be different. I took Dragnet for ExxonMobil the year before and it wasn't so great. In fact, truth be told, it was horrible for me. LOL!
Time was just flying before my eyes and I didn't know what was happening. That was my first attempt sha and I had not even graduated at that time. So maybe na why!

But judging from the two, Dragnet was more complicated and time was shorter. In this vein, I uploaded some sample Dragnet tests last year. You can find them on the ExxonMobil scholarship thread from last year; page 8 for the Numerical and Verbal sections. I don't know about discipline-based tests for Dragnet and sadly, I do not have any sample papers. But I believe the Numerical and verbal ones would be good practice for you in terms of speed and accuracy.
I should also say that after laying hold of these samples some time last year, I found some of the questions from the Mobil test of the previous year there so it's worth going over.

I wish you all the best.

Apologies for the epistles. LOL! Let me know if you need further clarification. Cheers!

Hi,

If I recall correctly, there were no calculators supplied and we weren't allowed to use on-screen calculators either. Just rough work on plain paper. With regards to chances, I wouldn't know, but I'd say just try as you actually have nothing to lose. And regarding changing, officially you're not allowed to change under Agip's scheme. If you can contact Dragnet before the test though, maybe that might be possible. But thereafter... I highly doubt.
Nonetheless, I wish you all the best.

I really appreciate ur response. Thanks

Breaking news... Agip postgraduate scholarship has been postponed till further notice. For those that were shortlisted, check your mails

Morning guys, did anyone get a notification indicating the postponement of the exam till further notice?

I don't envy those coming from far distances who have already arrived or have started their journey. This April fool is really serious.

hmmmmm postponement, could it be because of Niger delta avenger forces blowing up their pipe in d early hours today...... if so, this is really retardation and crippling of economy.... I really sympathize with Agip and partners.....lets not 4get to pray for our dear nation for God to take charge and rescue us and our leaders from this delinma.

Too bad I got to Lagos before getting to know the test has been postponed... Too bad I got to Lagos before getting to know the test has been postponed...

Thanks. Please help me with the full address of the Omoku centre cos I'm thinking of going there as I have seen that the selection process was more of luck and it seems these vantage niggaz are not organized at all.From the issue of shortlisting to the issue of candidate's inability to change their centres, I think anyone who is not invited and the centre is close to you can just give it a shot. Since no new verification code also, I tink probably they will just make use of the old verification code and the email invitation letter thus there is a high possibility of the fact that the people that has been invited may probably not have a special database cos how do you explain sending invite to the same name to a different centre. The money is worth the try. 50000 dolls. One of my friends is enjoyin the foreign and another is enjoying the local award.

Please bro, that ur friend enjoying the $50k,was the money paid into his personal account, thanks for your response
