Josephtokoni:
Everyone was asked to present primary school certificate?

Yes, it's needed too

nupeman:
Hello house, please those that have done. How much trouble I'm I in. I forgot my original NYSC cert and I'm already in Abuja I do have soft copies though.

Print out the soft copy in colored and make a photocopy of it as well. Explain to them during the documentation, they'll understand. Make sure you have the photocopy cuz you'll submit that. Same thing happened to me too and it was accepted. All the best.

Winter12:
You are a sailor also?
We are in the same boat ahoy

Ahoy matey, hope to see you in camp soon!

For me, I turned down long awaited promotion last two weeks that would keep me at sea for 60days just so I don't get stuck there when customs finally calls for camp

Please help me out with guarantors form too...benedih4u@gmail.com

yoyolagos:

Operations support

I think workforce does that for every recruitment to have you documents in their database for current or further similar recruitment opportunities. I got the same mail for documents too

Hi everybody, please any post interview update from CEMCS asides from workforce documentation?

Got same mail too

Runtown07:

Dasuks:
The GMAT can be a bother. The mere thought of being forced to sit through 3-4 hours in front of a screen answering questions that at moments can seem esoteric isn't exactly a widely-shared hobby. On the other hand there's the multiple horror stories of failures and repeats and the general prevalence of pessimism in most anecdotal material on the exam, from both the faceless and familiar.
Just took the exam and made a 75th percentile score( not too amazing, but still good ) but i believe that others could potentially do better if they know these few tricks.

#1: Know why you want to take the exam. Business education is costly and time sensitive, therefore having clearly defined goals is a necessity. When your mindset is structured and purpose-driven you find yourself viewing things in a relatively-as opposed to baseless pondering- more relatable fashion. There's goals, obstacles and solutions. The world is easier when there's fewer categories.

#2: Understand the exam from the test-maker's angle. Do not jump into one-sided immersive algebra, arithmetic or geometry exercises that provide no references to testable material. Nothing will come out like they do in the beginning of the guide or any the workout manuals.
For example embedding simple relationships like 'distance-time-speed' and their multiple iterations goes a long way in figuring out the various iterations in which they appear.
I mean like where two elevators meet at different points or how far a preceding traveller can travel before being caught up by a trailing partner etc. Embed the math relationships and those of Verbal as well.

Sentence Correction is another area where this works. Your goal is to understand business english and literally improve communication skills. Thing is worrying about the difficulty of spotting incoherence in structure/form/grammar or parallelism/consistency in comparisons isn't the central aim. You are just acquiring those skills so that in your future job in that glitzy Lagos(/PH/Abuja etc) tower you unequivocally get your point across.

#3: Solve the entire guide( Official OG) as well as the verbal and math reviews of GMAC. Go to b-ok.org to get these texts. On the same site you can get princeton review and other publishers' works on gmat like the 'math workout' and 'verbal workout'. Then proceed to the GMAT software on your computer and solve every single question. It helps to copy and paste every question from the math portion with 'gmatclub' attached at the end. This search would open several gmatclub pages on explanations and solutions on that particular problem. Giving you new ways to conceptualize the problems. You want to be able to think laterally when dealing with those tricky combination/permutation problems.

#4: Relax when reading.Calm those nerves bud!!! Do not to lose control of your composure and have yourself reading a line more than two times. Cap re-reads to twice or even 1.5( i.e only key words that stand out). You want to practice reading and understanding passages in one go. The key is assimilation. You know how that Dino Melaye article on Aje kun etc etc ( don't know the full meaning and what not) got to you in one glance? Cos you were interested, captivated and then afterwards disappointed.

#5: Use the internet properly. Peruse Magoosh forums, gmatclub, search random questions, use services like gmatquantum , go on youtube, hit up every thing you can that could possibly help you find solutions to whatever problems. And pls understand all solutions( line of reasoning).

#6: You want to be reading success stories and prepping yourself for your own version on D-Day. Bad things happen, yes , but not to you!! Believe in that above all things. Not by your power of course, Im a Christin so my own version is that God's mercy is essential to success.

#7: Do not forget the essay-analytical writing assessment. Yes it isn't tested int he main exam, but it opens up ur testing experience. It could add a lot of GINGER to your test taking experience if it comes out well.
Pro-Forma is as follows:
State your standpoint point alongside the overall flaw in the general passage. Then of course look out for the usual unjustified assumption, false equivalency statements and ulterior motives etc. Be thorough!! I did a 5.5/6 on it. Happy I used that strategy.

#8: After the exam life goes on. Do not take it seriously-as in life or death serious. You will be using some of those skills you garnered to write your essays for business school, taking your analytical and grammar skills back to work. End of the day it is a cathartic experience. You gain from the whole thing.

GMAC isn't Baal( not to talk of God himself). Hit the brakes coolly and have fun. Learning is fun.

Nice writeup, plan on writing soon too but dunno where to start my preparations from.

SATIELTSGRETOEF:
I am a seasoned tutor, with lots of experiences in preparing candidates for examinations such as SAT, IELTS, GRE and TOEFL. These examinations usually scare the hell out most candidates but those whom I have tutored have all aced their examinations with ease. There's no need to sing too many songs about myself.

If you live in Warri and its environs and you desire to pass any of these examinations with ease, you don't need to desire any further.

Just get in touch with me on 08174100154 or engrkpob@gmail.com.

Thanks.

Do you also tutor for GMAT?

abujaniv:
Hello Biut. It sounds like you will need to be issued I-20s by both schools, and potentially two separate visas. I'd advise you to consult with the schools first to find out what their requirements are and proceed from there.

Thanks alot, really appreciate

Hi Abujaniv, I wish to apply for a 6month training and an MSc course in the US. The training starts by March and concludes around August/September. However my MSc programme may also start that September next year. How do I go about the visa application for both, do I still have to come back to Nigeria after my 6month training to apply again for a visa for the MSc or I can get an extension while in the US?

Fhemmmy:
Thanks for your time on our thread and we appreciate you . . . For a 2017 Mazda CX-5, you will get one at a cost of ONLY 12.8M Naira (Please note that clearing cost is NOT added to that price as clearing of such will be accessed specially)

Thanks alot for the prompt response. Really appreciate though the cost is actually above my budget for now

Please what would it cost to get a 2017 mazda cx5?

Biut:
Dunno about those whose undergraduate field was outside engineering but I do know that the engineering questions were strictly based on your undergraduate field of engineering. Don't expect general Engineering questions. Focus on your own undergraduate field of engineering.

I also didn't get any calculation questions, was basically theoretical, maybe different for other fields of engineering. That's all d info I got for engineering. Wish you all the best.

Vivipop:
Hello house! I am sure we all wrote well today? I read through the comments and I didn't see anybody from Engineering. I am sure most people who did maths, statistics, physics and the likes(Physical Science courses) in BSc. level filled in Engineering. Who amongst us has written for Engineering please? Let's help ourselves.

Jaybadestboy:
Do you get to see your score immediately after the cbt?

Yes I think so

For those needing directions, depending on where you alight at Port Harcourt, this will be your closest route to Rivers State University. If you alight at

1. Waterlines: take a taxi going to agip roundabout and then a bus to u.s.t roundabout(school main gate)

2. Choba: find the bus going to Mile3 and stop at u.s.t roundabout

3. Eleme/Oil Mill: take a bus along Aba Road, stop at waterlines and follow d above waterlines direction above OR stop at Garrison and take a taxi to u.s.t main gate.

4. Mile 1: take a bus straight to u.s.t main gate.

NB: It's alot easier to get a cab inside the school from the main gate to the ICT centre where the tests would be held. But if you know your way around the school you could also go through the back gate.
Wish Everyone all the best of luck.

YoungestElder:

Yes, from Delta, just received it in my spam mail

einsteino:

Yeah, I just received it in my spam box too

Haven't received mine. Just realised the first zero on my number didn't show when I registered. Please is there anyone that had thesame issue and has received an invite? Is there any NDDC contact we can call to verify our status?
