Liebermann:
Was it part of the normal application process we're applying for now?

I'm just trying to understand the whole situation. If partial scholarships are normal then I guess the question was completely innocuous.

Which one come be innocuous

HausaIgboYoruba:
in 2016.

Haa
Was US part of the accepted countries then?

pijay:
A colleague from a scholarship group was previously rejected cos if limited space. Another colleague in that same group won same scholarship but rejected her own scholarship from same body. A review and an upgraded was done, and this guys was given the scholarship.
The Lady won Commonwealth’s shared Scholarship.

There are lot of opportunities apart from PTDF.

This is Grace in action.
Nothing Grace no fit do 4 pesin life oo.
Papa God help ur humble servants..

is there any penalties for doing two interviews OSS and LSS
same year?

Hannania:
This is the most recent payment that was made from the last two months.

Thanks Boss.

Hannania:
This is the most recent payment that was made from the last two months.

Hannania:
700k per year

But I heard TETFUND PhD scholars are collecting 1.5M annually and that PTDF LSS PhD scholars are collecting times two of that annually.

Liebermann:
I know someone who won UK MSc with a 2.2.

Wow, Interesting!!

tolaade1960:
Since the scores are instantly entered on the
PTDF portal. The rankings should start soon for recommended candidates across the states .

Latest by mid- July the final list should be out to create room for transcripts and visa processing.

It's usually a month after the interview. 10 June to 10 July for the shortlist of successful scholars.

Pweetymaro97:
I applied for the incountry scholarship and my interview is on Tuesday. My MSc option (environmental and radiation physics) was not included in the website so I choose applied geophysics but uploaded my admission letter in my application
Also I want to change my statement of purpose but was unable to do so as the window closed in the afternoon but I assumed it was going to be in the evening, can I take the new SOP to the interview instead?

Yes pls. As far as it is physical Interview you can.
This is a general issue.

BNW1:
It is at your own prerogative to apply to more than two (if possible) in the same year, but you must only choose one if selected for all. Afterwards, you can't apply for the same category of scholarship again.

Oh great.
Thanks for the insight.

Engr2016:
Because in actual facts, uploaded credentials might not be a true reflection of each applicant. Hence, the reason for the interviews .

Period..

tolaade1960:
Was it not stated to apply for one ?
Because it is confusing. Assuming you got the two, you would pick OSS and leave LSS while blocking someone chance who would have been shortlisted for LSS interview.

Someone should confirm this pls.

KoolK:
Omoh see grace in another form...

Aswear.

hopeful2018:
Do you have idea of the breakdown of the scoring for this year is? Especially for PhD candidates.

I hope this helps out.

Hyphee:
Pls who knows what QR code is, we are asked to print it when coming for the interview

It's a dotted black square located at the down Right Hand Side corner of your profile first page that includes ur interview schedule. In essence print your first page after login.

omokudu:
It means you don’t have to pay a dime

Oh
thanks.
I wanted confirm if at all it's a sign that they will recommend someone or it's a general question for all candidates?

YhemmyBloom:
I was asked..i answered that i wanted full ..Though i cant figure out what that means, but the koko is for the will of God to be done.

Me too was asked oo and I answered full funding. please what does it mean?
someone here should help us deduce this pls.

Amen!

Engr2016:
Interesting indeed! Meaning if a candidate is not even recommended at all by a convincing performance in the interview, he/she has lost a whopping 50 marks already despite his/her outstanding First Class , Distinciton or As in Olevel. For me, my hope is in JESUS Christ. May we be counted among those who will share testimonies at the end. Amen!

..

babey543:
They won't score the full marks. They will still get a score.

babey543:
Nice observation.
I made a mistake in my typo. It is 5 subjects they used this time. I have modified it.

What marks does B and C carries??
Since you said A is 6.

-And with regards to class of degree: you said First class is 10 what of 2:1 and 2:2 ??

Liebermann:
Interviewers don't grade you based on what you write on your SOP or proposal. They do that based on how you verbally present and defend it. I wasn't even asked to present a hard copy. I'm sure same goes for a lot of people.

They have it on their system remember say you upload am for portal, prolly don jack am self overnight before your interview session with them. Forget oo na war btwn us and the panelist.

As @FatimaMK once stated: O level 15 marks, BSc 15, MSc 15, Membership 15 and then Interview/SOP/Research Proposal/40 Marks.
I stick with this oo.

Another panelist being interviewed on how they select best candidates: https://fb.watch/dxJbZhsnOx/
He emphasizes on SOP/Research Proposal and Panel Recommendations.

Yabani1122:
Yes that's exactly my points too.....

Whatch this: A panelist being interviewed by PTDF on their Facebook page on assessment
https://fb.watch/dxJX0SYnG9/

ExpertNLer:
Lets assume PTDF is taking 200 per state for interview - if someone with 1st class and 5As is 201st in their state, they won't be shortlisted. While someone with 2:1 and Cs is 3rd in their state, they will be shortlisted.

Noo, it's not based on FIFO oo neither LIFO.

Pls what could be the problem,
someone got mail for OSS but didn't got for LSS?

Asking for a friend.

Nasoo...

babey543:
Next month results will be out.

toolazy:
Alright you two should stop using "forensic analysis" �
Maybe just "analysis"

Haha
this one only for speech and prize e day happen oo
Coz if them try am here na rough play oo

toolazy:
This I would agree with
Bottom-up approach

Lol.
Noooo
abeg No be like one of my guy nah.
If you give up, is as if you don't give up on Grace be that.

joviegghead:


Kai.. I give up

Lol.
1) Ur SOP/Proposal
2) Panel recommendation.
and you know what las las na Grace oo.

KoolK:
Omoh..so like this I should go and cry. Lol.
I no de like this kind thing o...dem no for carry me go interview o...where I go bgin climb from..120..

True, your forensic examination is valid.
Amen for your prayers.

Engr2016:
This confirms my forensic analysis I mentioned earlier for the current arrangement of shortlisted candidates which is based on class of degree. However, like I said, everything will still change subject to order factors. The most important thing is Divine favour as no one knows exactly the specific grading criteria that will determine the eventual winners. What we know so far is the generic criteria. May GOD favour us in JESUS Name. Amen.
