As part of efforts to achieve the goals of Vision 20:2020 and the Transformation Agenda, the Federal Government of Nigeria plans to develop a critical mass of professionals who would serve as catalysts of change and agents of scientific and technological advancement, as well as sustainable economic development. This would be achieved through the sponsorship of outstanding students for postgraduate studies in the top 25 universities in the world. To this end, the Federal Government has instituted the Presidential Special Scholarship Scheme for Innovation and Development.

I got the invitation too. I just don't have an idea of where to concentrate. Am thinking of PTDF past questions + some high school physics, chemistry and maths. Mayb current affairs too. This is a maiden edition so I think things might not be too complicated

Physical science actually. It is the same 4 evryone I guess but really I dnt knw the format it will take. I'll prefer to have a discipline-based test rather than some GMAT, verbal reasoning and stuff like that. All I knw is that I'll prepare wit whtever material am able to lay my hands on. I'll put the rest in Gods hands

ok bro. But as you know we have a whole lot of disciplines involved,their is tendency it would be general questions. Anyways open your mind and be flexible. Best of luck to everyone writing the test.
