Quick recap of today's Congress....
First, do you know we were not supposed to a dime to the department?
That there's a certain amount that goes to the department from your sch fees?
That the 15k we were charged for was not supposed to be collected?
That we were supposed to report to the Dean of PG school that we were being asked to pay the 15k?
Secondly, do you know we pay for Bench top facilities and yet they keep giving us excuses in the laboratory of lack of this and that?

That aside, the Congress started in the late afternoon. The Dean of PG school was kind enough to squeeze out time from his tight schedule to grace the occasion, he gave justification for the hike in the fees and students responded promptly.
Bitter reactions, lamentations, comments, suggestions were made.
And after about 2 hours of peaceful dialogue, he concluded that he'll give a report of the Congress to the appropriate quarters(VC and Co.)and thereafter give us a feedback through the Students' Representatives.
The students raised a motion to have a Townhall meeting which will include the VC, distinguished Deans and HODs of various faculties and departments for anoda dialogue session.
So as it is now, we're waiting for a response from the VC,
Stakeholders/Spokespersons have been selected to represent us.
We are strongly adviced not to pay any fee YET.

Smiling...

Bro., it's okay you did ooo. ..
See you soon at PwC as a colleague.

beshiman:
Yes, you are not the only one.
I was sent also. But, if you read it very well; there is a clause which says, it should be ignored if one has attempted the test before.

Thank you.

casttlebarbz:
you are not alone sir

TheBatman:
we want info's based on verified insiders and not feelings, Unless your feelings are always right.

Pls, i keep seeing proxy server detected, tried all d links made available but it keeps telling me d same thing. Could it be as a result of phone hotspot?
Also, i have turned off the pop ads stuff, but it keeps telling me error. Tried 3 different browsers, internet explorer, google chrome and Firefox

KUDZ:
Thank you very much bro. I wrote the Numerical test again yesterday night after I replied the reminder mail that was sent yesterday

Those guys are efficient, they resolved the issue in less than 40 minutes from my complaint.

We would all be successful together.

KUDZ:
Hello bro, I wrote the test last midnight but had technical issues when writing the Numerical test. When I logged back in, I was told the test is no longer available.

I already sent a mail to the address in the mail we got.

What else do you suggest I do?

agroronnie:
The verbal test is 30 questions in 19 mins, with 4-5 questions per passage. always the true, false or cannot say. the key to passing this is to base your answer not on the assumptions you know about the topic in real life but on only and only the words that are stated in the passage, watch out small conflicting words like when the passage says "the doctors sometimes suffer stress" and the question asked "the doctors always suffer stress ", then in this case, the answer is false. if the question asks about an assertion like "the planets all revolve around the sun" but the passage says a lot of things about planets but doesn't explicitly say anything about revolving around the sun even though you know this is true in real life, the answer is that you cannot say based on the passage. anything true will be the very same reasoning as the passage. since you have 19 mins to answer 30 questions that gives u 1.5 mins to answer one question so you have to be fast. the key is to take up 2 mins to read the passage thoroughly the first time it pops up, understand it, then you can use less than 1 min to answer the subsequent questions related to the passage. always read the question first before reading the passage so you know exactly what you are looking for in the passage, and even when you find it finish the entire passage, so you don't spend any more time reading the same passage for the subsequent related questions.

For the numerical test, you have 18 questions in 25 mins, 1.3 mins per question, this gives you ample time cos no long passage to read. You have to read the question first and look for the important variables required to solve the question. Its all about ratios, addition, percentages, no word problems forget the shl direct test, its all about interpreting tables.... tables..... tables and graphs as well.
the key is to know your short cut arithmetic; like if the sales for country A (currently $20m) increases 20% each year from year 1 what is the projected sales for year 4; instead of multiplying 20% x 20m then adding back to 20m for each of the next 3 years, simply have 20mx1.2x1.2x1.2= Ans. again if you are told that sales of January ($4m) decreased by 2% from December last year, find sales for December or as a ratio to sales from another month; think about it- January sales $4m decreased by 2% from December. lets say in percentage December sales is 100% decreased by 2% = January sales of $4m (98%), rewriting it in algebra; 0.98 of x (x is DEC sales)= $4m, x =4/0.98 to get back the 100% (x which is December sales), So practice practice practice, know how to convert your exchanges, know when to divide to get dollar or multiply to get a larger currency.

Practice, practice, practice!!!!!, hope this epps.
P.s. Agroronnie is a female not a bro.

Even if u review my profile, u won't see much. After a thread serves its purpose, I unfollow. I only asked a question I felt needed to be asked. I doubt there was a segment that needed my opinion and I didn't provide it.

Anyway.... U guys keep up d good work. If we have any info, we can help each other out.
