Got the following from an online forum:
The Shell Graduate Technical test is set by SHL. Typical True false can not say kinda questions.
There are basically 3 sections.
SHL Mathematics section, more basic questions and charts, graphs, ratios, comparism etc.
The main constraint here is time. So you need to work as fast as you can.
The second section is the English/Verbal section. Basic SHL questions plus few essays that need interpretation, application etc. Like every SHL test also, time time time!!!
The last section is spatial reasoning. If you have taken Schlum test, you are at an advantage here, as the questions inthis section are quite similar. For example, they will give you a particular box with cells, they turn it around, and tell you to identify the initial point given.
In General, it is almost certain that you might not complete the test within the time given.. but cover as much as you can.
As per the spatial reasoning, You can get some materials from the internet. Just go to google.com and type spatial reasoning. You will get a lot of sample questions to prepare.
Let me say this again.. IT IS A TEST OF SPEED AND ACCURACY.
YOu have to be fast and you have to keep moving!!!
I hope this would help. wishing you guys success................Cheers
@yhemy: thanks for the insight.
But, if you don't mind my asking, any questions on data sufficiency, and critical reasoning? PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE????

Please House we have to be clear on something here. Before now we were all claiming to have our status as shortlisted via the shell.com/careers portal. Now some of us are coming forward, claiming to have gotten an invite for a test from Shell. So please would we be gracious enough to put some clarity as to what test Shell invited you, and via what channel.
Pls, is this real or a joke? Sm1 shd pls post d letter and details.
House, please has anyone in PH been invited?
Pls can someone in the house post the date, time & venue for the test?
all who got invited....did u apply for SRD or SITP?
all who got invited....did u apply for srd or sitp?
SRD and SITP are the same thing
Got the invite through text and email this morning
All the best folks,lets keep going...
Mails were sent yesterday and sms today saying to check your mail for the invite. For those that were invited, the status still shows shortlisted and I believe the invite is in batches because I know quite a number of people that their status says shortlisted and havent been called. So please be prayerful and hopeful for the best.
All the best to all those invited.
For clarity, SRD is not the same as SITP.

Same with me. Shortlisted ever since, but no invitation yet. Gmat or shl? I'm in Abj right now. And if it's shl, what aspect of shl? I've never done this before. I'm asking cos there's a rumour of Shell discontinuing their contract wiv Shl
Is d test going 2 b computer based or 'paper based'. Do d two venue (excellent hotel in lagos & hotel presidential in ph) mentioned so far have d facilities 2 conduct computer based test. We need 2 know d answer 2 dis questns so as 2 know ao 2 prepare. Pls ao can i get 2 excellent hotel - ogba from ikorodu. Thks.
@Vanessavenus...I was worried also, but my own mail came just this evening...since ur status says shortlisted, U will be invited.
@Orisamika...I believeit will be paper based, since they said we should come with pencils and eraser, more over these hotels do not have the facility to conduct a CBT
@Super Moderators...pls knock of the shell employee's (Johnson Isiavwe) address in Kessy2011's post to protect him and give NHJ more credibility
@Kessy2011...we pardon U seein this is ur very 1st post on this site, but please next time U may want to keep back some priviledged information...like d senders details (Other guys who posted this mail b4 U, INTENTIONALLY left out that part) Thanks for ur understanding
@orisimaka, someone posted a piece of advice to those preparing for the test, it's on page one of this topic. Check it out. I've not received my email too. Though my portal satus reads 'SHORTLISTED'
