EducationRe: APPLY TO 2019 NDDC MSC AND PHD SCHOLARSHIP by BRAINNY(m): 9:55pm On Jul 07, 2019
Here is a piece of advice I can drop as per the exam:
1) note that the exam is only testing the knowledge you’v acquired in your field during your undergraduate only and the exam is 50 cbt objective questions to be solved under 30 minutes.
2) the exam is strictly based on individual course. That is, if you studied computer science, your 50 questions is going to be from computer science: and if your is Marine engineering then you are going to be facing questions from marine engineering.
3) the questions are usually taking from the general and core courses in each field especially those that was taught in 100, 200 level and few from 300 level. So I suggest you revise your general courses in your field at 100,200 and 300 levels very well.
4) I can with all conviction from my experience in the last two consecutive nddc cbt exam I took before God honor my efforts say that you do not need any past questions because nddc is not stereotype in question. Just try and go through your field general & core
courses in 100, 200 and probably 300 levels.
For example I sat for geology cbt questions in 2017 (which was cancelled and inconclusive), and 2018 respectively. In 2017 nddc for the first time changed their question pattern from GMAT that is aptitude test to individual course based questions & they’v kept to that format since then. So they held us for 1hr 30min in the hall under strict watch while setting the cbt questions in their strong room so to speak. For geology they set 98% ,if not all self, of the questions from geophysics only one of the many aspects in geology. So that year it only Favour those geology students that really revise their geophysics though inconclusive. However in 2018 they set questions from all aspects of geology, I mean all the geology courses such as Petrology, physical geology, geophysics, petroleum geology, mineralogy, environmental Geology, paleontology even marine and planetery geology.
So please revise all your general and core courses at the 100, 200 and 300 levels if possible for you can’t predict the angle they will come from.
And here is the most important one:
4) Controlling the pressure due to time constraints and using of computer system/ tools on that day:
Trust me everyone either brilliant, well prepared or not will definitely face this pressure on the exam date, and this really determine your score.But I discovered this as good antidotes to it:
When you entered the exam hall, relax and be at peace in your mind and emotion.
- don’t involve in any unnecessary talk even any talk at all with the candidate by your sides , front or back before you hear start.
- Hmm please don’t waste any time whatsoever on any question, make sure when you read a question and its option through once you immediately have the correct answer to the question if not move to the next question.
The best way to master this and the likely pressure is to prepare for the exam in your home now by google 50 general questions from all aspect of your field, put them in cbt condition and solved the questions under 30min. Do this over again b4 the exam day.This will prepare u well for the day. Though some might not need this.
- the very cheap questions are usually towards the end of the 50 questions as observed but don’t let this determine where u start. Start from question 1 but keep to my advice above you will be very fine by God Grace.
- Incase you have any problem with the computer system such as suddenly ending your exam and log you out before the 30min, just keep calm and call one of the nddc officials/ attendants in the hall and explain the issue to them, then the problem will be solved
- go through the questions again after u are through with the 50 questions and u still have some time left, especially those you dint have time to give full attention due to time constraint.
- you will see your score immediately after the exam:

I have yet to submit, but will do so once I am able to secure the letter of good conduct. I have tried to get my hands on past questions for environmental science, all to no avail.
God help us all...
For Environmental Sciences, I don't have access to past questions.

It depends on where you live presently. Take a walk in to any high court, you'll likely get a judge to help. Besides you can use the Chairman of your LG or any of the Legislatures. Lastly, you can get a traditional ruler to assist you.

[quote author=TJ0987 post=79428112]Hello Brother, please can your services be extended to environmental science? I need guidance if I am to scale through the test, and I realise it's the first obstacle I must cross.
Thank ]

At what stage of the process are you presently?
