Like I said not all dragnet test, it depends on some factors. Is dragnet conducting the whole recruitment or just the exam. Like the lady pointed out kpmg exam was conducted by dragnet but calculator was allowed based on the order of kpmg I guess. However, this is a full dragnet e-recruiter recruitment where they wil only report 2 first bank @d end of d day so dragnet may decide either to allow or not allow calculators.
when I did KPMG it was conducted by Dragnet and calculator was allowed ,

Dragnet does not allow the use of calculators.

Stop being ignorant. It is the prerogative of the client requesting dragnet's services to issue permission on the use of calculators or not. I did my KPMG last year. It was conducted by dragnet and calculators were allowed.

A good science inclined person who applied the firstbank job resident at Port Harcourt, should email me.
We might have a lot to share together.

Abi, for me, those practice numerical questions were designed to be solved with calculators

There's no need arguing,I have written kpmg test and many others conducted by dragnet. Dragnet doesn't use calculator unless stated otherwise I.e if it's gmat based.
Wen I wrote kpmg test we used calculator bc it was gmat based.skye bank,NSE were conducted by dragnet and calculator was not allowed.

As pointed out, the test including AC wil be conducted by dragnet cos FBN has outrightly outsourced it out, we wil probably have contact with the bank after the AC. This leaves us with an assumption that the test will 80% be dragnet format and let say 20% chance being gmat format. There is 95% chance of calculators not allowed and 5% chance of it been allowed. We'll probably meet 20 questions in 17 minutes. There will be some questions that you wil get in 5 secs and some that wil gulp up 2mins, but be time conscious, let try work up 15 questions of d 20 in 17... If gotten correctly that a whooping 75 out of 100. Guessing is allowed. If lucky 1 or 2 wil click. We just need to work more on our speed and accuracy. Thank God invites isnt out, we can try to perfect that this week. Hopefully dis weekend or next wk, we wil knw wen d test wil happen. We can do this guys with the help of God...

Wait o! so, you are telling me they can set that type of question(SHL) as contained in that study Pack and not allow calculator?

When you guys say GMAT what do you mean? the graduate entrance exam used for schools abroad or pure quantitative reasoning?

By the way, KPMG uses GRE format which stipulates the use of calculator and so does SHL...

I guess it's just as someone stated earlier; it all depends on the client...

I wonder if this exact recruitment on this thread is for Access Bank or First Bank. Whereas, if dragnet says no calculator then the numerical calculations would not be too difficult for someone to use pen & paper or head to solve.

With constant practice, it shouldn't be difficult. Even if it is, you have to be accurate with your guess. Time won't permit you to finish up with all calculations, hence the need for calculative guess

Dragnet allows calculator which you might eventually not use due to time constraints. They've invited me for KPMG Graduate Trainee & it was clearly stated in the email I received
