And if not for the fact that some silly peeps were sharing the questions around one wouldn't have easily figured out the source of their questions. And someone will come here to say 'if the job is for you, it's for you.'
Take it or leave it, those who wrote on the first and second day stand a higher risk of losing out in this race already; some peeps already have answers to these questions because they've got the source of these questions.

It's just so unfortunate.

u r right. d test takers on d first day pointed d direction.
but whoever wrote yesterday will tell u dat our questions were different from those of Monday and Tuesday.

You are to come along with valid identification e.g International Passport, Voters ID-card, National ID-card or Drivers License.

The list isn't exhaustive. They should accept other IDs as long as it doesn't fall within:

(Note:Ordinary photographs or photographs stamped before being attached to an identification documents are not acceptable).
Good luck

a guy behind me was allowed to write after he showed his ATM card and one strange id to show its s same person

Pointed the direction to the source? Oh yes!

As for the questions being changed or not, some peeps testified yesterday that some questions were repeated. So your claim on that is not entirely valid.

However, even if the questions are changed daily, it still doesn't change the fact that the source bank of these questions is the same, and peeps who are yet to write are taking advantage of it.

To be candid with you, the old ones up there have failed us and there is this belief and hope that the young ones are the future, but I'm beginning to lose hope in the youth of this country. We don't seem better than the old ones up there.
We really have a long way to go if we want the positive change we deserve.

do u know? in advanced country or in a standard test format, test takers are supposed to know d area of testing. not just leaving us in d dark and expecting us to just come sit for the test.
never mind what people say now abt d question being repeated. the questions were not(yesterday questions in particular). in test like these, some Ppl will b at a disadvantage, some were qualified but not shortlisted. some will pass and not get d job. dats d reality! we all can't be employed by dpr.
if it's urs, it's urs! u could av been in our shoes and we being in our shoes (I mean in terms of taking ur test at a latter date and not d first) , if d tables were turned. best wishes!

I did mine on Monday, I could work out the answers of 16 out of 18 Maths questions because i find logical maths easier than English. The remaining 2 may take much time than required so I clicked anything.

On English, I think Dictionary is a key.

All the same, everything belongs to God.

Lolz. if u were truly familiar with it, and Ppl telling u d area of concentration. 5 sections only, not d whole book. then u should ace d test. I have just dat book with me, and I av been familiar with most of d questions dat r relevant to me. the first day test takers just made me know area of concentration. but fortunately, I envisaged question change and it worked out for me.
like I said before now, d race isn't for d swift. only God can make one succeed. u must av met Ppl dat can put a whole lot in their head before. I av met one before and I still respect d guy down to dis day. never underestimate ppls ability.
if u r a gambler u will know dat u only bet on urself. never ever place a bet on what others can do or not!

Update from PHC Ace International center, Biafraland.
I believe you'll be allowed to write no matter your schedule. Secondly, I don't know why they're asking those who came with slips showing "pending successful submission" to wait but one of the DPR officials said it's going to be a long wait.
But, mehn the logic wan play person o... So based on logistics, we used logic to demystify the logic. Oluwa have mercy. I finished with about 15 mins left and had enough time to review all my answers twice.

Abeg I didn't crack the last maths question (paraphrasing) on the guy who wants to invest his savings in banks A and B whose interest rates are in the ratio 5:4. I have forgotten the exact question but we were asked to find the ratio he'll have to save to earn equal half yearly rate or so.

Success to the guys who are yet to write.
Was 4:5in the options?
