@Jaybray .. Go and learn when to use lay lie lain and laid..

Know how to use prepositions..
E..g
The man ....... stole my money is here
Who
Whom

Give the prize to........comes first
Whoever
Whomever

2questions came from it..

@Jaybray.. Know what .. with..and..neither goes with..

With always goes with...is
E..g .. The man with his 7wives .... here
Is
Are

Neither the man nor the couple........to be blamed.

When u see neither, the second subject controls the verb. So 'couple' will control the verb to make the answer.. are

3 questions came from this.

Cram am

Know when to add s to a verb and when not to.

I was aksed..

One of the ........... arrived
Woman/have
Woman/has
Women/have
Women/has

Words that do not take 's'.
One of my question was.

They are bringing ........ nezt week

Equipments
Much equipment
Some equipment
Some equipments

The other one was on Furniture. .

Cram am

@Jay bray..

Go and familiarise your self with the use of .. oneanother ..eachother... themselves.. About 4 questions came from it..

Summary. . The word Enjoy always goes with Themselves..

While Meet/met/quarrel/quarrelling/fight/fighting goes with .. eachother. .

But if its more than 2 people. . It ll go with one another. .
E..g
They enjoyed themselves
The couple met each other last week.
The students are fighting oneanother(more than two people)
The students are fighting eachother (only 2 students)..

Very important. . Just cram am.

hmmmmm.......nah,I'm not.can't even wait for it to come,tired of reading

@tired of reading. . Hmmn. Na im be say u go give uniben marking scheme dat day be dat. Na una type dey finish Ababio 4times per week.

Wish you success in ur exams.

Brian10:
Press 9! on a scientific calculator and see if you won't get the answer in 2seconds. That's 38seconds earlier. No point mocking who used a calculator.

Oga, didn't you see where I said the only usefulness of the calculator was the fact that the 9! Problem will be a walk in the park for him? Thereby saving him more time.

Whats ur point exactly?

@Jaybray, my first question was..

Its high time we ----- this idea.

Give up
Gave up

JayBray:
Hi..eng pls

JayBray:
Tricky as in? What can I expect

My guy, I been wan just log-out make i sleep before you quote me so because sleep dey my eye.

But no wahala sha, as per guy guy, make I stay awake small engage you. I ll seprate them b post by post..

Nigerians will always be Nigerians. Some sharp guys still use calculator do the exam . The computer that was only about 6feet or so to my right hand had calculator minimized on the screen. A Judas among the set that wrote in the morning of that day used the calculator that every computer happens to have and forgot to exit the window.

As a matter of fact, the guy who was sitting beside me used calculator but Uniben didnt set any business math for engineering as far as the paper went, so the calculator was pretty much useless to him for the better part of it. The questions were mostly on co-ordinate geometry then lots of calculus.

I con wonder wetin the guy dey calculate.Abi he just dey divide im jamb score by 8. Lol

The only question that I believe proved the usefulness of calculator was one tiring question on permutation and combination.... 9! to be precise... To get an idea, pick a pen and paper, then multiply 9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1 under 40seconds.. Shey u see am..

Ok. I just remembered another chem question that came out. .

The reducing agent in smelting of iron.. coke was among the option sha.

Those yet to write, if any of the questions wey I dey type comot..den lucky you. To show gratitude, just secretly ask God to give me only 2marks from ur cumulative score.

Anybody interested in the English and maths shld let me know. I ll try my best to type the ones I can remember.

nursing

Thats cool.

Just 2days to ur exam.
Are you scared?

chara019:

Pharmacy? ??

SmithRussell:
Yeah, about 2 or 3 questions were also in my cbt practice test. None from Dandy. It was cheap to me, the only problem I was scared of was stress pattern and their exceptions, had to download materials, read 'em, but sadly, it didn't come out at all, but no knowledge's wasted.

Are you sure NONe came out from dandy? Dandy is quite comprehensive and its kinda hard not to have seen atleast a few questions that came from it. I can still remember words like apathy..corpulent. .clandestine. .calibre..cryptic..anathema that came out in mine. Well, maybe my English ques and urs were diff sha. I also registered for the cbt stuff but didn't write mine.

Stress pattern? Ur own better na. My problem na dose sounds nd pronunciation. I hate that stuff with my body, mind and soul.

chara019:
wow,I'm sure u killed it.

I do the small ones wey I know, leave the rest for God.

When are you writing?

SmithRussell:
My english questions were not tricky at all. I'm expecting my seat number as my score

Yea. The English was okay.. I just thank God say I no see oral English sha else na wetin for bring quarrel for hall be dat.

But hope you do realise that someone without a good background on the rules guiding English will fail most of those questions thinking he/she got them. Trust me, the English was tricky. Looks simple but easy to fail.. Always fear any competitive exam that looks cheap. There's always more to it. I like your optimism though, its good.. And what's ur seat number if I may ask?

SmithRussell:
Computer Engine

Engine boy. Cool. I wish you success..

Why you con modify my post na. You con change am to "what will you studying"? Lol..Abeg no be talk dat one. Oh.

chara019:
huh!if this na d question dem set,den na bonus dem dash una o.shuuuuuuuu!!!!!!.

Lol. Though, the questions were not that hard, they were tricky. They only look much more simpler now cos ive somehow translated them. Trust me, the way uniben constructed the English to those questions was tricky. Very very easy to fail cos almost all the options do infact, make sense.

By the way, the math did more than enough to compensate for the chem and physics. .
So, it wasn't all a bed of roses.

SmithRussell:
yeah, your questions 1, 6, 7, 10 and 12 were part of my physics questions too..

Which course are you going for?

12.. Power was given as 60w. Resistance as 750ohm.. Find voltage


Physics was 15 in all.. I cant remember the remaining 3 questions. I think they were calculations. Ive Forgotten.

Adah96:
Everything was fine except for the time...
N it was jez one passage tho it appeard like 5tyms with different questions... Nearest in meaning+opposite in meaning..idioms..d word that best completes blah blah ...And then the maths wasn't all that friendly to me tho +the time... The time n the time was d p....
A.p...probability..impartial fraction..standard deviation...binary...e.t.c....
The standard deviation had a k tho...not like the easy ones...Lol...Well sha God dey
U guys shld mng urtym welz
Wish you guys all the best



#ejor no mentions...don't quote this post

A quick guess.. the question you were asked on standard deviation was something like. .. Find the positive value of K if the standard deviation of the numbers K, K+1,2k+1=6

Or ... Find the variance of the numbers. . K, k+1, k+2

Which of them?

IceSplash:
plz help me solve this

Make I try..

safarigirl:
nobody is ready to be stewpid for love. What happened to all the girls that hustled with struggling guys? What did they get in return?

I know women who were with men when these men could hardly eat, women who sacrificed their own dreams and ambitions just so these ungrateful cretins called men could complete school and get stable jobs. Do you know what happened to those women? Let me tell you, the period they should have reaped the fruits of their labour, they suddenly became too frumpy, too uneducated, classless, overweight, ugly.....in fact, they were not up to the perceived newly attained 'standards' of such men and were duly replaced by the 'classy' women who fit this standard.

So, tell me, going by the mentality of Naija men, would you think me or any woman wise to stick to a 'struggling' man considering the experiences of others?

After reading this, i couldnt help but laugh at the irony...no,hypocrisy in your article and also not to forget,your mentality..

You said you know women who have been with struggling men who were later treated badly by these same men when the going got good and concluded by saying ' so going by the mentality of Naija men,would you think me or any other woman wise to stick to a struggling man considering the experiences of other'..

My point is, the fact that you know a few women who were treated badly by struggling men does not make all strruggling guys the-same. Do you know how many struggling guys are out there? So why should you use just a few instances out of probably millions to categorize naija men as having a warped mentality?

Safari, you know the irony of the whole thing? At the end, you are not so different from the same Nigerian men you are trying so hard to castigate afterall. You both have the same mentality. You asky Why? Well, this quoted text was from your article..

safarigirl: I mean, never mind that you've only encountered about 4-9 of such women, I mean, the statistics gathered from all your other 4 friends with similar experiences and the total 16 gold-digging girls you've all encountered is enough proof that over 30million Nigerian women are gold-diggers

Sacarsm well played.. I think i should play one too.

I mean, never mind that you've only encountered about 4-9 such women who were treated badly at the end. I mean, the statistics gathered from all your other 4 friends with similar experiences totals about 16 stewpid men and is enough proof that over 50million plus Nigerian,esp the struggling ones are not worth it..

I need not spell out your hypocrisy here,you must have already seen it,you are a smart girl afterall.

*Checks calendar again to confirm if its april 1st or not*

I ffucking hate that road with passion. It takes me upto 5minutes atimes just to get a perfect crossing and to imagine that i cross it atleast twice in a day alone, sends chills to my spine.

You need to see the way cars speed on that road like no man's business.

Its a pity that yet another life has been lost. She was just in 200lvl, full of hope and aspirations. How will her loved ones feel? How will her parents feel?.. Such a pity.. Atimes, life makes no sense..

R.. I.. P dear.

Hahaha.. Nice one.. You really got me there..

This would have been the perfect april fool's day prank. If only today was april 1st.

but miley cyrus knows i'm "wrecking balls," when i catch this pauper/ i'll smack him proper/

kick his balls on sand! ..... Now that's BEACH SOCCER/ lmao

He’sfar from my potentialbut my fistForce’ll cut through a Distance/

This is settled with a punch….. as I showmax power…whenIsquareup to the resistance!/ Damn..

Any science student that does not give that 'power=i square resistance' line a round of applause gat to be an amputee.. This is really good stuff..

Congrats to Max. He brought more heat overall.. Atleast you don get one title..

It was when i saw engineering courses that i knew for sure that its either craze dey worry this op or na the @op dey worry craze.

Of course I do realize its within everyone's right to have an opinion but some opinions are better swallowed than said. What da hell!!!

I would rather both!
