That was one of the most organised aptitude test i've attended, actually my fourth after graduating in 2006. i must commend the organizers, especially with the question combinations, which spread among various areas of computer science, not 2 mention the verbal & quantitative sections. I actually believe in the transparency of the NITDA, and that who ever emerges for the M.Sc from my state(Bayelsa) actually earned it.

He he, My state had 21 applicants so I'm wishing on a wishing star. But I've got to say, the test started on time and everything was in order. They didn't even allow my friend who came to gate-crash. :-X :-X :-X :'(

Hello Guyz, I was contacted by NITDA to come for interview on December 8th 2010. they gave me a letter stating that I was successful in the aptitude test.

I couldn't almost believe i just past a scholarship test, after my very disappointing experience with PTDF earlier this year. I thank God Almighty, as well as dedicate this success to all members of this forum.
