First class is good but scarce in government universities. If you attend private university you can get it easily. Now to your question, take every assignment and CA seriously get at least 25 marks before exams. Then look for the remaining 45 marks in exams. Memorize some notes if need be because some lecturers like it that way. Understand your reading pattern and keep to it. Keep the right group of people around you who have similar dream. Remember first class starts at 4.5 ie 50% B grades plus 50% A grades for your allocated units. So when you fall below B grades get more As to eliminate the short fall. It's a pride to have a first-class especially from a government federal or state university where it is not easy to get it. See you at the finish line!

Every incumbent president tends to control the party decision to get a second term if there is room for it. We cannot get another Mandela who stepped down after a successful single term. It is sad to see incompetence at a first trial lobbying for a second chance. Well na naija we dey. However, the opposition will not do something better(my prediction) as long as our politics is still a selfish one.

All the very best to Jose. May his return be a Happy One to the Blues!

Yes I want to agree with you Seun. Whichever way, I pray she passes the test and at the end gets the job.

omo congrat o.

My friend edoisewele , congratulation on your appointment with PZ. Well, you wanted PZ b4 you applied in the first place cos you already had the lecturing job. Thank God you got it!!! You may still end up being a lecturer but with pool of managerial and industrial experience. You'll then be more relevant to the students you teach. See you when we resume in July!

Urchmoney, FirstBank just concluded the interview (2nd stage) of its recruitment process yesterday. Let someone give us answers to our questions.

Nairalanders, Please does anyone have an idea of the number of people FirstBank wants recruit? How many were they last year?

Yes I called a PZ staff yesterday and he told me that the invitation is in batches. I guess those having the Ability test today reside in Lagos because they got the invitation yesterday evening. I am expecting PZ's call oh. All the best for the guys that are having their test today. Please let us know how it went.

I think it is wise to dress for where you're going to and not where you're coming from. Please try get a suit for the interview.

Here In Ibadan, it is 7 days for the interview. This may apply to other centres as well.

Yes, I got got a text message from firstbank inviting me for the interview today. How does the interview look like?

Yes I called Enitan after receiving the text message yesterday and he confirmed the change of date for the test. But why another test again after two tests? Anyway God will help us cross all the hurdles.

I beg let's discuss about the test format and stop this -ve attitude! God will tke care of the invited and uninvited.

Please help your friend. The test is next week Friday 16th March, 2007 at the same venue (EVENT CENTRE Alausa, Ikeja). I need information on how the test looks like. I'm waiting.

Hello guys! I just got an invitation from PZ for Function Specific Employment Examination sequel to the one we had last week. Anyone in the house with useful informaton about this test?

I'll ask Baba Iyabo to explain to us why:
1. EFCC is trailing more of PDP opponents (get off their ass!)?
2. Why is Adedibu (PDP tout) a sacred cow not dealt with? Imagine his attrocities in Oyo state?
3. Wetin Ladoja do U?
4. Can we trust you that we shall have a do-and-live elections this year?
5. Why impose Sicky-sicky Umar on PDP as presidential candidate?
6. 'Sincerely' tell me, 'Are you corrupt?'
7. If 'Tiku boy wins the presidential elections will you die?

Well I have no information about Port Harcourt test. I will let you know if I get any. However, the venue for the Lagos test is Hotel Bellissimo, New road Busstop, By Chevron roundabout, Lekki, Lagos by 9am. The test is three part
1. VERBAL: understanding & reasoning with verbal information.
2. NUMERICAL: reasoning with numbers.
3. DIAGRAMMATIC THINKING: processing a given figure through a flow diagramme.
You are adviced to come with your calculator. You may need to get prepared.

Hello guys! A friend just got Chevrons invitation letter through DHL for the LAB ANALYST TRAINING programme test. The test is slated for 12th March, 2007 at Lekki Peninsulla. I'm hoping to get mine soon oh. Watch out for yours.

Welcome Bollah. Trusting God for the best. I also did mine at King's college (annexe) at VI in Lagos.

Mhhnm! Well organised But it was time consuming. The environmental sanitation was not put into consideration. I missed another test with Reckitt & Benkicser which was slated for 1pm the same day. Methought I should be through with NNPC test before the time. Well 70% na yam? With God all things are possible. Hope say na merit no be state Quota system of selection?

Please pray for me. I shall also be writing the test on the 28th of Oct. Thanks for the info good Angel06.

I am in good relationship with a man(elderly). He has 2 beautiful daughters. Interestingly he is the best friend of his daugters. Men anytime I go to visit he keeps me busy with his gists but now his daughter is my mission. The last time I was there for 3hrs I told him I came to visit the lady. Men, the man stayed in our company throughout. Wetin I go do?

15 MONTH IS TOO LONG TO KNOW WHERE A RELATIONSHIP IS HEADING TO. BUT WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN TALKING ABOUT IN YOUR RELATIONSHIP? I HOPE YOU ARE NOT PRESUMPTOUS ABOUT THE GUY . MAY BE HE LOVE HIM MORE THAN HE LOVES YOU. PERHAPS HE LOVES SOMEBODY ELSE BUT YOU ARE BLIND ABOUT IT. OPEN YOUR EYES LOVE THE PERSON WHO REALLY APPRECIATES YOU AND WANTS YOU 4 LIFE. DON'T PUT SUCH A PERSON ON THE WAITING LIST.

I can maintain it but I won't do it. I tried one but I realised that I was playing AWAY MATCH with another 'home based' guy. The guy won. I was left in the cold
Anyway, distance relationship will work if both of you sincerely want to make it work.

Congratulation friend! May the Lord grant you success in all your endeavors. Suck up all the training and develop your skills. More power to you.

@Actuary

What do u do when u're hopelessly in love and your folks are opposing strongly to your relationship?

Please don't be hopelessly in love. There are many reasons for being hopelessly in love (not the issue now). Open your eyes and don't pretend. Is there anything in your relationship that you think you can cope with but your folks know you can't (based on your peculiar family values)? You need to prove to them if you know you can cope. Remember marriage is for better for worse.
Now put your folks apart, hear the views of real friends (who know you well and can tell you the truth) about your folks reasons of disapproval. They can be of help to you.

@ juwon
My advice to you is to pray and put your past behind you. Your trials are indications that you are precious.

solajacobs and beelyjay45, may you wake up and see your dreams come true. May be going to the polls can help. Try and become good politicians. Better still, being good Nigerians will help.

Thank you for the info. Onabajo
