Dem say, ‘E no go hard to find internet-enabled computer centres.’
First things first, I go start with di big no-no: you fit no carry your mobile phone go di exam. Na only laptop and desktop wey get webcam and fit work for full-screen display go do. So, make sure say your smart phone no find small corner to distract you. (E fit do like say dem wan catch you if you no fit keep your phone aside – no wahala.)
Dem also talk say before you even login, you go do facial verification wey go check if na your face wey dem see. Una fit no chop make you face look clumsy; NCS talk say “clumsy facial looks” fit spoil di whole verification process. So, bros or sister, make sure say your look dey proper.
If you think say you fit rush through, better think again. NCS talk say you gatz sit still like statue; because if you dey shake body like okada rider, di app fit log you out. No fit dey movement like say you dey dance Shaku Shaku during di exam. Dem dey serious o!
You fit no want any kind noise or distraction near you. Whispering, background wahala – na dem tin fit make dem accuse you of malpractices. So, if e dey noisy for your area, better carry your laptop go small corner wey quiet pass.
Anoda major rule be say no switch window. E fit make di system think say you dey try cheat. So, gree to focus on one screen throughout di exam time. Dis no be time to hunt for any updates wey no concern di exam.
Two days before di main test, you go do pre-test wey go prepare you for di correct thing wey dey come. This one go also help you sabi how di system dey work, so you go fit reduce errors for di big day.
Dem go drop two links for you: one for di pre-test and another for di main CBT. Make sure say you no mix am up. An extra test dey cook for those wey apply for Superintendent cadre (Level 8). If you dey among dem, you go chop another CBT on top di matter. “No dull yourself o!”
We don dey hear say plenty people dey sell past questions for social media, like na dem get di korrect gist. But my padi, dem no need am! NCS don confirm say dem no get any official past questions. Na scammers dey use am dey collect una money. E fit be say di agency dey plan how to catch dem. E be like say na dem go dey introduce ghost questions as dem dey try round am up.
If you dey hear say someone don buy past questions wey dem generate from ChatGPT, make you no fall for am. Pattern wey dem fit use to test you fit different from wetin una see for past questions. Na fresh brain wey di current examiner get fit matter pass. So, why you go waste your money when na small chance you get to pass?
Finally, all successful candidates suppose don receive dem pre-test details before or by September 22. Dis no be time to waste money when your chance to get job dey like 3,927 out of nearly 287,000 applicants. Stay sharp, make you no fall for 419!
