I see nothing wrong in sharing one's experience. Your destiny is predefined and nothing will ever change it. May we be favoured.

It seems solipsism has eaten through most of the people here which is okay I guess. Respect the wishes of the majority. For the people who don't adhere to me vs we, we'll keep it in the DMs.

As for the theory about the first interviewees striking out. I can unequivocally tell you that there is absolutely no way of knowing this, he just pulled it out of his behind. However, I would say being among the first interviewees may work for or against you. Interviewers tend to grade on a curve, depending on what side of that curve you end up on you may have favorable or unfavorable comparisons.

Wow, with a mindset like this no wonder Nigeria is the way it is. What is wrong with sharing an experience from an interview?

Whether they share or not, what will be will be. They can keep the experience to themselves hopefully you come out first out of a class of 1million. Typical Nigerian.

People have gone for interviews with the top IT companies like Facebook, Amazon, Google and Microsoft and made videos of it all on YouTube.
You see why the indians and Chinese tend to excel wherever they go, they look out for each other, positively. Be there, concealing info from an interview.
I don't think you all understand hosey's point. This interview is basically an exam. Any sharing should be done *after* the exam and not in the middle. The market should be perfectly competitive so there should be perfect and equal information on the part of the participants. You can't compare the performance of someone that did theirs earlier with the performance of those that would do later. The later ones would've been informed on questions asked and what not and would prepare specifically to answer those kind of questions unlike their counterparts that might have thought on the spot and answered their own. He's saying the sharing should be done after the interview process has been finished (since we're saying it'll serve as info for future applicants).

I wrote one scholarship exam like that in 2020. We had a 24 hr window to take the test. 2 hrs after taking mine, the info sharers came and pasted all 50 questions of the exam on a WhatsApp group. You can imagine the unfairness of it all. Assuming I hadn't yet written mine, I probably wouldn't have vexed tongue I might have even encouraged more people to share theirs. It's in human nature to seek for their own satisfaction.
Let all contestants have an equal footing abeg. Those IT people you're using as reference shared their experience after the process. Some times sef they share when they've gotten the job or been rejected

Fair points. I think we should stop sharing information here entirely for the sake of those who aren't on this platform. In the spirit of perfect competition.

Hello guys,

For those going to the interview (MSc applicants in particular), I think sharing this may help. Please check the attached document (it contains general questions likely asked by Ptdf and the format responses I furnished for each question). Check as guide and practice yours.

Do not panic. It is just a chat between you and the panelists.

I wish you success

Check your mail. Probably under 'promotion'.
They must have sent another mail.

If nothing was sent, you might need to go with the earlier date, so as not to leave things to chance.

I'm a beneficiary of ptdf Msc scholarship and nobody has ever asked me for transcript, right from interview to induction. This is just a formality. I have friends that are PhD scholars and none of them was mandated to bring transcript.
please can you give us hints about the interview ,like the type of questions they ask,thank you.

U are to seek for admission urself...in an event you don’t and u are a beneficiary, you can easily get admission into some UK universities as quite a number of school representatives in th U.K. will be there to start your admission process for whoever requires to...... you definitely won’t see the likes of Imperial college, Cambridge university and the likes doing that....


You don’t need to worry abt VISA or upkeep funds but the only thing is that they won’t pay you a dime until you are at least a month int he UK having started your programme .....precisely until abt NOV 1st of that year


WOWW. THanks alot for taking your time to enlighten us, please can you tell us the most likely questions they use to ask.Thank you

If you had taken time to go through this thread, even the last 4 pages, you'd have found the answer to your question. It's been repeatedly answered on this thread.

I found it not cool having to respond to questions that have been answered multiple times. Let's take time to read threads. We are all scholars and reading is part of the deal.
