A. 52
B. 56
C. 96
D. 128

Answer: B. 56.
Explanation:
It is an alternating multiplication and subtraction series. Multiply the number by 2 and then subtract 8 from the result.
That is,
14 X 2 = 28;
28 – 8 = 20;
20 X 2 = 40;
40 – 8 = 32;
32 X 2 = 64;
64 – 8 = 56.

Question 2.
Which word does NOT belong with the others?
A. Unimportant
B. Trivial
C. Insignificant
D. Familiar

Answer: D. Familiar
Explanation: Options A, B and C are synonyms. Therefore, option D does not belong to the group simply because its meaning is different from that of the other options.

Question 3.
If 'C L O U D' is written as 'E N Q W F' then 'M I N E R A L' is written as ____.
(A) K G L C P Y N
(B) O K P G T C N
(C) P L R H V D N
(D) N J P F S B N
(E) O K G P Q R S.

Answer: (B). O K P G T C N.
Explanation: The second set of letters is two places to the right of the first set of letters.
For example, in A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z, letters E N Q W F are two letters to right of the letters C L O U D respectively.
Therefore, letters O K P G T C N are two letters to the right of the letters M I N E R A L respectively.

Question 4.
In a game of whist, GEORGE partnered MARY, while TED had to select a partner from ANN, EDNA, JOAN or ANGELA. Who did he choose?
A. ANN
B. EDNA
C. JOAN
D. ANGELA

Answer: A. ANN.
Explanation:
GEORGE and MARY partnered because they have something in common. What they have in common is that the letters in each of them add up to 57.
Let's give each letter a number according to its position in the alphabet.
That is, A=1; B=2; C=3; D= 4; E=5; F=6; G= 7; H= 8; I=9; J= 10; K=11; L=12; M=13; N=14; O= 15; P= 16; Q= 17; R= 18; S= 19; T= 20; U= 21; V=22; W= 23; X=24; Y= 25; Z=26.
Therefore, GEORGE= 7 + 5 + 15 + 18 + 7 + 5 = 57.

Question 5.
When walking, a certain person takes 16 complete steps in 10 seconds. At this rate, how many complete steps does the person take in 72 seconds?
A. 45
B. 78

D. 115

Answer: D. 115.
Explanation:
If 16 complete steps were taken in 10 seconds, the number of steps taken in 1 second = 16 ÷ 10 = 1.6.
Therefore, the number of complete steps that the person will take in 72 seconds = 1.6 × 72 = 115.2 = 115.

Question 6.
Olu runs faster Ade.
Wale runs faster than Olu.
Ade runs faster than Wale.

A. 2,000 Naira.
B. 1,700 Naira.
C. 2,200 Naira.
D. 3,200 Naira.

Answer: D. 3,200 Naira.
Explanation:
1 dozen = 12. Therefore, 2 dozens of apple = 12 X 2 = 24 apples.
1 score = 20. Therefore, 2 scores of apple = 20 X 2 = 40 apples.
Sum of 2 dozens and 2 scores = 24 + 40 = 64 apples.
Price of 1 apple = 50 Naira.
Therefore, price of 64 apples = 64 X 50 Naira = 3,200 Naira.

Please if you know how to calculate MSc results in percentage, please help me out with it.
Most schools minimum requirement to apply for PhD is 60%. How do one obtain percentage from the MSc results?

Hi,

You are right, most schools set a minimum weighted average requirement of 60% for PhD applicants.

Unlike undergraduate grading system which is based on grade point average (e.g. 90% = 70% in grade), the system of grading at

the postgraduate level is based on weighted average (90% > 70% in weight).

In the weighted average system (PG), the scores and course units are equally important.

To calculate your GPA or weighted average easily and quickly, you can make use of this online grade calculator we developed: https://www.superskill.com.ng/apps/grade-calculator/

We will also explain how to calculate it manually. Example: if a PG student enrolled for 4 courses (let us assume the

following course codes and units: ENG- 3 units, MTH- 4 units, CSC- 3 units, GNS- 2 units) and scored 65% in ENG, 70% in MTH,

52% in CSC and 85% in GNS.

To calculate the weighted average, we will multiply each score by its corresponding course units, and sum all the obtained

products together. Then we will divide the result by the sum of all the units of the courses.

That is, [ (65x3) + (70x4) + (52x3) + (85x2) ] / [3 + 4 + 3 + 2]

= [ 195 + 280 + 156 + 170 ] / [ 12 ]

= 801 / 12

= 66.75

Therefore, the weighted average of the assumed student would be 66.75%, and that is above the minimum PhD grade of 60%.

Regards.

JKenny123:

Yes, thanks.
I sat for the Federal Government Scholarship aptitude test last month (February). Although, most of the questions were not really difficult, it's just that the time was insufficient for me. I later realized that I spent much time thinking about how to answer some of the questions, especially those that require calculations. I will just have to practise more, and I believe I will be faster in answering questions in subsequent scholarship exams.

We wish you great success!
