Are u serious. y telling him even though u know.
Y not wait till after d test.

U are not offering help but only made those who genuinely read for months to fail. Even though de pass, u guys will make d cut-off soar.

You are wicked.

Although it might not be that important anymore; but by quoting that info, you are as guilty... remove the quote from your post, please.

And Mr, how are u so sure he has not written a program before? Or do u think u are the only programmer, maybe if at all, in this forum? U shud be careful of how u speak to people, not only here. And like u also said too, "its ur believe too, not a fact". Good luck bro.

thanks i dont mean to sound rude. Im only trying to discourage any form of panic dat can be created by such tots in d minds of applicants. Ppl ought to b praying for succes not letting dem lose hope dat all dia efforts gone. Well, in my opinion its not so. N most ppl who understands d system will testify. Infact in jkk. D chief examiner explained it too. Just dat some of d staffs dont even understand aw it works cos some are new to d system. All d same best if luck all.

@GMB4REAL, @FATDICK, how things. It's been a while you guys visited the thread. This thread is obviously lacking relevant information. Your input at this point will be highly appreciated.

I wrote on the first day and it is obvious that so many people were thrown off-balance in this test (aside from the English part). Most people never expected such "SEEMINGLY SIMPLE but confusing" questions, especially those of us that applied for 'experience hire' with several yrs of work experience in Oil and Gas sector plus Msc degree. Most of my friends who took part especially on the first day corroborated with this. Holding other factors constant, DPR may factor in some other variables in their shortlisting other than the aptitude test result alone (I stand to be corrected pls). State of origin and the position applied for would also be determinant factors in this regard, as such people will be competing with one another. Above all,the Grace of God shall prevail.

All these peeps saying the questions were easy, im waiting for your comments when the result is out

lol...which category did u apply?

I applied for EH

Oga Ade hold on first. If while u are applying for a brass-ring, say GE position online, where u have to fill forms then hit the 'Save and Continue' button as u keeping filling the different segments of the application until u finally reach the Tab where u have the 'Submit' button then the network suddenly goes bad or ur phone goes off, will u assume or not that the applicaton has been submitted, even when u are 'COCK' sure u didnt hit the button?

There's no correlation between submitting application forms and submitting CBT tests.
Timers (eg. Countdowns) used for monitoring CBTs are a special design . In developers world, it's like a rule, that says " All CBT timers must be logically connected to SUBMIT button". Submission is the most obvious evidence of participating in an exam, whether finished or not.
A conventional method of writing tests or exams will prove to you that SUBMISSION is a must, whether you answer all or not. In a conventional method of conducting exams, Your papers must be manually collected at the end of the test(s), ( that is, when the set time elapses).
So you see, as a Systems Analyst, it's a practice to make sure that all CBT timers (especially countdowns) are directly and logically linked to SUBMIT, unless otherwise stated. Your time must elapse before such a command can take effect.

The 'Save as You Answer' technique was designed for everyone's good. It should have been automatic though. The idea of manual Save was to ease their database the stress of over working itself unnecessarily. The essence of saving is to prevent Imput Data Loss only against any kind of failure outside the database. If two guys start a CBT now and both are already half way done, with a clear difference that one saved his work and the other didn't. Suddenly, *Power failure*. After a successful restart and login. it's more likely that the guy who didn't save as he answered, would start all over. Just saying.

noble4lily:
Those arguing on SUBMIT BUTTON. Its simple programming. D countdown timer is programmed to >goto Submit. Once it gets to 0:00 so if u hit it or hot. Once its 0:00 command <submit> rakes effect. But if u decide to hit d button b4 d times goes off. Den it will jump command n got to submit directly.


The most important button dia is save dat wat registers tge input commands without clicking save the submit will end d program without input data. N thats zero. So weda u press submit or not b fully rest assured dat ur test was recorded.



Except for a case wia d system trips or networj goes n u have to restart d program. D example of submit in job applications is entirely are diff program. Dia is no auto countdown timer programmed to activate d submit button. I hope im clear enough. Just go n pray for d exams n hope u are called soonest for d oral interview.. Before d fcc examines d successful candidates n send back to dpr to issue offer letters. Good luck everyone

Well said except one paragraph separated above. SUMMIT must register all your Imput data. The Submit button carries two functions: Save and end session or test. I really don't have write the test to understand this simple application software.

athorello:
I have an issue with some unnecessary questions here. Every info has been rightly passed here from day one of the dpr test.
Meanwhile, while some guys whose statuses are "still pending" have the mettle to go to the testing centers some spinless rubs will be sitting behind their phones only to ask stupid questions.

One key info was that test in ph would be from 24th to 27th and there was enough concerns to make anyone recheck his/her profile. I later discovered that most people I reached out to were actually rescheduled and notified via email/sms. But thanks to those who went to protest at Moscow road, the test resumed around 12:30pm yesterday.

Secondly, if this thread is your sole source of info, you should have know that people were attended to at the test center regardless of their schedule whether missed or yet to write. Your part was to come up with a cogent excuse.
Anyway, all these are going to the past now but it's better to be proactive if you really want something.
Let grace, quota system or connection have its way.
Success y'all!

A friend never received any invitation email or SMS for the test, his luck was just visiting this thread. He check his DPR profile and took his test centre and date. I hope he will not be forgotten again. Keep the thread alive it helps.

ds isnt even the d issue... d question is when??

Thanks for everyone who gave us clues on what to come out, I really appreciated your kind gesture, if though they never repeated questions but I gained a lot from this platform. It really informative.

Ogoscco:
One of the criterias that was looked into is ur computer competency, remember during the submission ,some of us could not scad through becos of document coversion to PDF,they overlooked DPR,left to NPOWER, FIRs,FCSc,NRC etc lll.

[b][/b]


criteria is the plural form of criterion. mean no harm

Lol... criteria, Criterion.... I for shout, but we ain't in English class...

O boi! I just tire o, just saw the said GMAT and I weak. All the English questions were there word for word, Synollogy ended me. I scored around the epsalon neighbourhood of 30 which might not be enough now.

@shmas101,please what year GMath came out for the English,...

Fingers r crossed

U are very correct.
We were told in Abuja centre by one of d men in charge who addressed us b4 entering exam hall dat d most important thing is to save after each question, dat even if u forgt to Submit once d time elapsed d system will automatically submit it

U ar right, datz hw d system was designed.
I was half done nd my system network went off, i was moved to another system, as i login i saw all my work intact, no need to start afresh.

Did anyone notice that when u saved ur answer, the number array below each section of the test, turned red.....
