Wrote the test in November and this platform really helped so i decided to share for the sake of those yet to write the test

The test had 10 current affairs about 20 Numerical questions And 20 verbal questions.
The questions came in the form of normal objectives, Data Sufficiency and Sentence Correction.
Use the 2018 GMAT guide to study. Specifically the Diagnostic practice tests at the beginning of the textbook.

For the Essay part there were two questions pick one
1. Give an example of how you’ve had to apply Creative Thinking to solve a challenge either as Leader or a follower and give examples ( not sure this is how it was phrased)
2. “Highly effective teams are built on team spirit” Discuss with relevant examples


For the Current Affairs Question
- [ ] Full meaning of NAPTIP - National Agency for Prohibiting Trafficking in persons
- [ ] When is the next Youth Olympics
- [ ] Which country doesn’t use a parliamentary system - Pakistan, Israel, etc
- [ ] UN headquarters
- [ ] Which of these is not part of the European Union
- [ ] What year was EFCC formed
- [ ] Which President was arrested on 5th October 2018
- [ ] Governor of Kastina
- [ ] First Executive President of Nigeria
- [ ] Meeting with European nations on dividing Africa among them for colonization ( Can’t remember the question but the answer was Berlin conference in 1884)

I advise you to go through the 2015/2017 thread to see other current affairs questions
Which stage are you now? I wrote the in November as well

Once you been given a reference number it means your submission is through and under review, so you can't do anything about it. You don't need to anyway. Just wait for their next email.
I'm expecting to be called up for AC for FRM. Pls, do u av idea of how the AC will be.

I'm expecting to be called up for AC for FRM. Pls, do u av idea of how the AC will be.



Robynwelo1:
I mailed this to someone the other day, so I'm just going to paste it here.
In AC, there are three stages
Stage 1: Personal Presentation;
Choose one topic out of five, you would be given 7 to 8 minutes to prepare. Presentation is just one minute.
Make sure you stick to time, it will be terrible if you are asked to stop. Lol
For me, I chose 'should PMB run for a second term in office? Why?'
Stage 2: Group Task/Presentation;
Your team, usually made up of 5 to 8 persons, would together solve a puzzle or task. The HR will be in the same room with your team watching. The task is usually 20 minutes. Then in a minute someone from your team will present the results/findings.
Do NOT exceed the time limit, even if your team could not come up with the complete result, present what you have.
Stage 3: Panel/HR interview
You will be interviewed by the same three HRs. Confidence is KEY. Don't lie about anything.
This Panel interview could last up to 30 minutes.
The most important question is; How does your course relate with audit? That is the most important. You must be able to relate your course one way or the other with the role of audit.
(tip: No knowledge in any course whatsoever is useless to audit. They need a broad range of perspective, that is why every discipline was permitted to apply for the role of audit.
If you are asked why audit?
Make them understand it's because you understand or realized it's importance.
Audit is important in all facet of life. It basically means evaluation. If you want to do better in what ever you plan to do, you need audit to find out your loopholes, outliers or even your best practices.)
Also,
You must be able to know what audit is all about. Also know what Kpmg is all about, the head of audit, and National senior partner.
Lastly, they will ask you a lot of questions based on situations. Think about your life, all the things you have done in life before you go for this AC. If you've never been in such situation, just say it. But it's best to give a situation no matter how small or impactful it was.
Tell us a time you....
Example:
Motivated a team member
Lead a team and achieved great result
When you brought in a better approach to a situation
A time you resolved a conflict/misconception.
A time you lost money you invested.
I was asked all those plus-
Tell us about your final year project in school.
Tell us about yourself
Tell us about your family.
Also study your CV, you should be able to defend your skills. Although I wasn't asked anything from my CV, I heard some persons were.
A tag number will be given to each of your team members. You will go in turns. You will not be able to interact with each other after the panel interview.
When you meet for the first time, make sure you are all friendly with each other, know all your names, where you are from, gist plenty and share things together. It will help a lot.
In my team of Eight people, Seven passed the AC.
In some teams, out of, lets say five to seven only two will pass, or even zero, possibly.
You just should be able to work together, ease tension and make friends.
Our success message came in the next morning.
Good luck and remember, BE CONFIDENT!

Took me a while to figure it out.

Other questions were based on Insecurity, Investment in human capital, and workforce decay. Can't remember how they were structured.
