agrovick: LOOL it was crazy man. I know am not suppose to eavesdrop on people's conversation but they were right behind me nothing I could do. At one point I turned around and looked at one of the girls that made a really shocking statement about men and she smiled at me like ''boy take me number and call me after today''. I frowned back at her like ''nah i'm good. I dont have a phone'' lool crazy stuff man 1 Like |

Okay here is my two cents yeah? Dragnet this is for you: why waste so much resources on administering a test that requires candidates physical presence at a test center when you can administer the same test remotely. This will ensure that more candidates are afforded the opportunity to participate, unemployed graduates who do not necessarily have abundants funds to bankroll a journey thru and fro test centers especially when this is interstate will be relieved of this inconvenience, the perils associated with this kind of journeys will be alleviated as well. Ultimately, you will cuts costs at your own end. The backlog of increased entries can be dealt with by automating the entire process down to shortlisting of successful candidates. The process becomes more efficient, even effective. Now, onto the test itself. This requires speed and accuracy. It cannot be overemphasized. Speed and Accuracy, my fellow soldiers in this battle to defeat the enemy, unemployment. Really in these kinds of tests, what you are being guaged on is not necessarily how brilliant you are, however your Traditional cognitive intelligence is being put to the test. This is the ability to plan, reason, and use logical deduction to solve problems, but also the capability to apply abstract thinking while learning from and responding to the environment. So there is no time to calculate, ponder or even think as time is of the essence. As a gentleman shared earlier in a post before me, you use logic to address these questions. If you have to provide an answer to an arithmetic question, you do not have to solve the question right down to the end, ohhh no soldier you dont do that. Once you see the enemy, you hold that government issued M16 up right and shoot for the head. No questions asked. Look at your options, what is your most probable answer, if you can spot it, great stuff. If you can't, your village people have spotted you and are stabilizing the water pot so they can see you clearly. Do not let this happen. You can sort this out by eliminating options from the list starting from most unlikely. Your only other option is to try solving the entire question in 30 seconds. Is this really the option you want to take. If your answer to this question is yes then my fellow soldier you will remain a soldier in this battle and you will attain the rank of chief of army staff in the not so distant future. When taking passage questions, learn how to employ finger to eye coordination. As mentioned earlier, referring to the young man's article, I find that reading using my finger to trace in the passage while looking for answers is quite resourceful and I am assuming it will be same for you. No one cares how you work towards getting your answer. Just get it. Find what works for you and exploit it. You have to practise as well. Clear your mind and familiarize yourself with these different scenarios. Not just when you have a test like this, just do this in your spare time you know. Listen to the news, interact with people, listen to them, read books, magazines, newspapers and what have you. These items are the manual for your government issued M16. You have to learn to use that machine adequately. Is this a guarantee that you will ace this mediocre system put in place to inadequately test competences that are semi related to functions that you will need to perform on the job. You be the judge of that. Truth is, there is no wrong or right way to address the challenges that we will encounter. I might try a difficult way and it does not work for me, it can however work for another individual. My simple way might not work for the same individual who already has his/her way doing it the difficult style. All am trying to say is, First Bank abeg if una dey select no forget me. 18 Likes 2 Shares |

VMpi744:Mr man, all these strategy you mentioned, I know them; I'm that smart (not being proud) & I used them & even more. But I'm still telling you that you can't solve 50% of the maths questions including with the so called strategy you think we don't know about except you're lucky with easier questions , and by easier questions, I mean the ones which are more difficult than the pie chart question you talked about. What do you do when you are unlucky (like me) to be given a lot of questions with options close enough to defy the strategy you think should almost always work? Or what do you do when you're freaking given a lot of questions with very long word problems? How do you do you manoeuvre that? Or how do you manoeuvre compound interest questions that you already tried to solve to the point where you arrive at decimals raise to power another decimal and the options aren't helping matters by being too close to manoeuvre? For the analytical questions you talked about, they were the easiest & quickest to solve; everything dey GMAT. 1 Like |

famosh:GBAM, I didn't want to talk before, but man you gave a good reply. The thing is all those strategies and M16s and what have you are all cool and fun until you have close answer options like 44.67 and 45.23. Tell me how approximation wan help. The only thing approx can do for you is to reduce your options to maybe 2 or 3, but it can't give you the answer nor help you guess accurately. Those dragnet guys are smart/wicked. They would give you 2 very close options, lemme now see how your strategies go save you without a calculator. Though if we had a calculator sha, so men for they get like 90% for maths, cause those questions no too hard. |
