The competition is within my state. Not the whole country
And do you know the number of people viewing this thread that are from your state of origin and are yet to write theirs?
Also, sharing all these now would be disadvantaged to those from other states that have written earlier on, because it will also give those from their States that haven't taken the test yet undue advantage.

Anyway, examinations/tests in Nigeria are overrated.
Imagine such crap!

The test cast for my side. I prepared for Renewable Energy/Energy Systems. On getting to the venue, I was told Renewable Energy was mainly Biofuels, so I decided to choose Energy Systems not knowing that will be worse. The 50 questions were Gas Turbine Technology cry, Na so I begin guess cry till I reach 50.

Good luck to those that their exams made sense, as for me I don bow out.

Omo... those English questions (esp the first 30) were not meant to test you buh to teach. I must say I left with a lot of new words to improve my vocabulary.
Someone should help me search for the meaning of
Boor, puerile, renegade, solecism, libertine, bombastic. So much words I'm looking up here.
I remember how we used to use "bombastic element " as an insult in primary school, now I realize I never even knew the meaning.

Oops. The average Nigerian lecturer thinks biofuel is all about renewable energy.Even PTDF chair for renewable energy focuses on biofuels. You should not have changed your option. It would have been better than energy systems.

Can you imagine people that didn't purchase Scratch card nor registered for the scholarship were sent to the exam venue by of as at the top, and they forced Flexisaf staff to generate pin for them and allowed them take the test.
Anyway I was told of someone who didn't even take the test and is presently studying in UK.
This is unfair.

no, I wouldn't want to believe a Nigerian lecturer won't know about renewable energy.
What I think happened is that there was a mix up. He said he did energy system and ended up having questions from Gas Turbine.
Those who did renewable were having questions from biofuels process engineering.

@ Felxisafsupport. what could ve happened

Mr kalu Otisi, PTDF’s Head, Press and External Relations, in a statement on Thursday in Abuja said the test would be conducted in the six geopolitical zones on July 8. He said that the test would be held simultaneously in the designated centres across the country. According to him, candidates in the South-South zone will write the test at Destiny ICT Centre in Port Harcourt. The PTDF spokesman said that Lagos would host the South West at JJK building Ikorodu road while Abuja would host North Central at Chams City, Maitama Otisi added that Enugu would be used for South East; Bauchi for North East while Kaduna would host the North –West at AfriHub ESUT, Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University and Kaduna State University respectively. “The latest ICT technology in electronic testing will be deployed for the test in each centre. “These innovations have been introduced to ensure that the transparency and integrity of the process are not breached,’’ he said. rnss Thumbs up0 Love0 Joy0 Surprised0 Sad0 Angry0 Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on WhatsApp The post PTDF Assessment for 4,949 Msc Candidates fixed for Tomorrow appeared first on NTA.ng - Breaking News, Nigeria, Africa, Worldwide.   continue reading
