gambudu: for lagos dey started around 11-12am last year but be dere by 8 there about.if you go dere 6am or 7am,den u will be made to carry equipment like laptops,tables and generator or even arrange canopy for dem.

thats funny dude. lolz

tosine25: Same Question on my mind

i message u but u refuse to respond. why?

gambudu: i participated last year and so many pple dat got d Ineligible text still saw their names on d list.So azido may be trying to say sometin you dont no.E meant well

bro,since u participated last yr, i guess u are in a best place to answer my question. if i missed out the first day which is on the 17th, is it too late ? cant I follow up from on the 18th?

Plz house, due to work stuff, i cant come on the 17th but i'll be there on the 18th. Do u think i'll be penalize?

sanyahkod: @Gamuguma. Incase the 4th question is repeated,using BODMAS,the answer is '5'. I got 10 too initially but i found out where i had gone wrong.
Calculate again dis way;

30/((3+3)(2+3)/5).
(same question)

@sanyahkod, there's a difference btw 30/((3+3)(2+3)/5) and 30/(((3+3)*2+3)/5).

in 30/((3+3)(2+3)/5) = 30/((6)(5)/5) = 30/(30/5) = 30/6 = 5 and

in 30/(((3+3)*2+3)/5) = 30/((6*2+3)/5) = 30/((12+3)/5) = 30/(15/5) = 30/3 = 10.

In BODMAS, Bracket comes before Multiplication and Multiplication comes before Addition.
So, u have to do whats inside the bracket first, multiply befor u add. hope u get?

Maths is what I eat; it's what i breathe, and it's what i sh.it

sanyahkod: The answer to the 3rd question is '210',taking it to 2 significant figures..The 3rd number '0' is not significant. 213.18 and 21 are not close at all. Hope u get..?

yeah, 213.18 = 210 to 2 s.f..The 3rd number is not 0. the 3rd number is 3. Base on the fact that is not up to 5, u round it down to become 0.

Lobsan Rampa: Pls I think that your question three the answer should be 21 because they said the answer should given in two significant figures not two decimal places

The no.3, the answer is 210(D) to 2 significant figures. I didn't actually see the instruction. Thnks for the reminder.

mimzy007: Gamuguma are you writing it in the state you live or somewhr else & what state are u frm? Coz frm the info I have been hearing they start the screening by state in Alphabetical order,now if you live there you can always poping in & out or use one of the social media to get info frm pple on the ground so as to plan it,you will be at an advantage if your state will be called at almost the end.

@mimzy am from Delta State and my centre is PH

skiguy123: For those dat cudnt locate d past questions(2010) posted some wks ago..here

emrino: Mathematics;
1. Evaluate (101.5)2 - (100.5)2 *the 2 after
the brackets r square roots*
A. 1 B. 2.02 C. 20.02 D. 202 E. 2020
2. Express product of 0:06 and 0.09 in
standard form.
A. 5.4 x 10 *raised to pwr minus 3* B. 5.4 x
10 .C. Same as ''A'' D. Same as ''B'' E. Same
as
''B''
I'm guessn ds questn was an error but thats
hw it appeared
7. Simplify 0.63954/0.003 giving ur ans
correct to two significant figures.
A. 213:18 B. 213.00 C. 213 D. 210 E. 21
Then there was d next question on Mean,
Median & Mode
11. 30 / (((3+3)x2+3)/5)
A. 15 B. 6 C. 5 D. 12 E. 8

The answers are,
1.) D
2.) A
3.) D
4.) C
Dude,
No.1) it's not square roots but square[ and this is how u rep. square^2 ie (101.5)^2 - (100.5)^2 ]
solution
you solve using difference of two square methods
ie (101.5)^2 - (100.5)^2 = (101.5 - 100.5)(101.5 + 100.5)= (1)*(202)=202 ans D

No.2) 0.06 * 0.09= (6.0 *10^-2) * (9.0 * 10^-2) = (6.0*9.0)*(10^-2*10^-2) =54*10^-4 = 5.4*10^-3 ans A&C

N0.3) 0.63954/0.003 = (63954/100000) / (3/1000) =(63954/100000) * (1000/3) =63954/300 = 213.18, 210 to 2 s.f. ans D

N0.4) the answer supposed to be 10(BODMAS); the OP didn't type the question or the options correctly.

Hope it helps. How I wish they just set maths questions only, I wud av been the most happiest person.

Gamuguma: Plz prospective officers: Due to the nature of ma small Job i gt, i wana knw if going on 23rd is too late? I dnt tink oga @ the top wud allow me to leave frm 17--26th. --unless, by his grace. Thnks for ur anticipated response.

mimzy007: Skiguy God bless you, I taya oo!

So, u dey speak pikgin english?! I think say u no dey shi.t o!

unshake: BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERS
B.Sc / HND Biomedical Engineering , there is nothing God cannot do.... when grace is at work, protocols will be broken, formalities will be waved....just trust in God

The requirement actually differ but there iz nothing God cannot do.

harryolt: thumbs up.. u are a broda.. cheers..

Broda ko? Na female my man. Carry go

Course problem againnnnn? Wonderful! Ok drop ur course lemme analyse it.

tosine25: Nice move...

sumfin is telling M u hail frm d south!
Send me ur own fb address, lets sort it out frm there too.

Physio4army: Guys dnt be discouraged jst go der and hav d xperience.....i studied physiology i applied under physiotherapy. See hw close?

Bros, physiology and physiotherapy are of two differents department. Mayb thats why u were nt shortlisted!

SailorXY: There are some courses that are generalized on the advertisement. An obvious example is Dentistry which is sub-divided into Dental Surgery, Dental Technology & Dental Therapy, and they are all required to make any Dental Centre complete even tho some may do the job of another but that's illegal by the way. When people see Dentistry, they may feel its just Dental Surgeons but that was not a specified requirement. I think some other department may be so as well.
But Dental Surgery is specified this year

@ physioarmy and @Mimzy. Plz help am kinda confuse! Cux of the way they are stressing the course stuff. One who had BSc (hons) in Statistics frm the department of Industrial Mathematics/ Statistics, applying under mathematics as a Air Traffic Controller, do u think he's eligible? Plzzzz i nid answers o lemme knw, so he wont go there to waste his precious time. Thnks alot

engroke: thanks bro for this wonderful info...pls I have a question to ask pls if 1 has a Bachelor of technology in physics electronics hope he has no problem applying as an electrical/electronics engineer

My brother, i tire for this course things o, Left for me shal, Physics Electronics and E.Electonics engineering are of two diffrent department but dey both do almost the same Job.. As our naija engineers dnt even produce. Guy go try ur luck jor.

Physio4army: Guys chil heart..der's notin like race in dis zonal screening... Wen u are shortlisted, u wll go to d net and print ur photocard, on ur arival to ur center,..... 1.

U dey put fear for person body. Well, thnks for the info breakdown. Plz i want to ask, why wud they shortlist ur name knowing fully that u didn't meet up with some of the requirements? Or is't to fulfill ur N2850?

U dey put fear for person body. Well, thnks for the info breakdown.

sirbone007: Winners are not quilters, won't quit though but strength lies in identifying your weakness. so they could just disqualify a candidate just because of an appendicitis operation mark without considering other strengths like physical fitness, other medical wellness etc.

My pal, if only if u knw d population that applied and the number of persons dey intend to take, u wont be sayin.. This! if it's in d U.S. They wont disqualify u like dat, but for naija, dey nid to reduce the population by all means. Take heart!

mimzy007: No selection board comes aft we all go back home & wait. That list will be out 4 to 6wks aft the Zonal enlistment,although I heard one year it was out in less than a month.

Ehen! Gbam. we're thinking in d same direction. Thnks for clearing the air. Others take note!

mimzy007: Yes,selection board is wat comes aft the Zonal enlistment. That were about 15 pple are shortlisted per state therefore they'll have time to screen you well In all areas.

So frm 17-26, we gonna pass thru both zonal enlisting and selection board? Plz tell me o, lemme go and lace my canvas and start practising....

mimzy007: the test is during the Zonal enlistment while the race is during the selection board.Its the Army pple who will run during there 1st stage coz the go direct to selection board with no Zonal enlistment.

After the zonal enlistment stage, we'll fall back home den later go bck for d selection board screening? Or we're going for both?

mimzy007: Guys nobody is running during the Zonal Enlistment,its aft you have passed the thorough medical screening that you are allowed to run & this takes place during the Selection board stage.

are we going for the selection board screening too?
