Topic: Nddc scholarship 2012 is out

@wisey are u sure that point is worth fightin' for? Assumin' the guy that scored 43 choose forensic engineering or lets say 'wildlife science'. His going for a three yrs course(22k pounds/yr). The other person scored 26 and is going for pipeline engineering. 1yr course(14k pounds). If yhu were Mr. Oboh who will u gv d s'ship? Wisey that questn with ur church mind.

Please does anyone have the list of other states and their LGAs?

All we need is 4 dem 2 publish d list. 4get d interview scores. How would u score someone like me who was only asked my intended course of study

Now that they have seen pple who r willing 2 study, they r joking with us. Politically a friend of mine was awarded scholarship 2 study structural engineering and was thrown out shamefully from the school. May be dats is wat dey want

Ok nice. So please ask him or her to explain to me how they expect someone who was asked the following questions below at the interview to impress the panel.

1. What meal did you eat today?
2. What is your name?
3. What is your school fees?
4. Why do you want to leave Nigeria?
5. Why can't your parents pay your fees?
6. Why are you studying something outside your field?
7. What news was on the radio a night before?
8. Why don't you have NYSC?

From the onset the whole scheme was adulterated because you don't expect intellectually oriented answers to stupid and non intellectual questions do you? If they were reasonable about using only the interview scores to decide the scholars then they should have made all the questions intellectual and purposeful and not random and un-patterned.

I hope they will be man enough to publish the interview scores so we know how we did in the interview cos I know how I did in the interview and God help them they tell lies.

Well thanks for the update but for me its show time.

You see my dear am not against NDDC using any rules to disqualify people because to say the least they in charge. What am against is them not laying down these rules at the beginning of the process so all could know and understand their stand from day 1. Making rules as you go is an act of jungle justice and as we know that technique could be exploited such that rules could be made to even favour a political candidate at the expense of candidates who actually worked hard for the award. This is where am coming from.

all the states are here already, open the excel sheet and look at the bottom part, the state are in different sheet of excel work, kudos to the fellow that took his time to do that

"HOW DO YOU IMPRESS?'"

No format, no standard, imagine what is the meal you take today has to do with going for graduate programme abroad, ok to know if you can eat "oyinbo food" hen!
then, to me all this whole process is just protocol
anyway
All will be well

@wisey and enochdejesus, thanks guys

Wizzy from my little knowledge of interviews, they are designed to test composure, confidence, know-how, verstility, communicative ability, etc. So, asking a question like a meal you ate might just be to test one of these

Well I wasn't asked any of those silly questions thankfully but if I was I would have answered them legendarily.
