we are earnestly expecting the list to be in our favour.god please help us
tips on those likely to be called and reasons.
1 . those that scored high during the computer based test,30 and above. they are assumed to have higher iq
2. those that are studing courses directly related to oil and gas.it is believed we need more man power in these areas.
3. those that are going for courses related to their first degrees .believe there is continuity and will do better.
4 those who made first class and second class upper division.believe they are more brillant.
5 those going for more specialised course,the are nt favvourably disposed to those going for safety management ,project management etc
6 those who GOD HAS DESTINED TO BE IN THE LIST.
THE LIST WILL BE OUT TOMOROW .GOOD LUCK TO ALL.
na you dey approve the list? abi you be God? tomorrow when you are not called becuse you are qualified, by own above listed criteria, you will then start shouting OJORO OJORO! mscheeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Wishing other sane hopefuls luck.
@slimikenna, you don't have to take kingjo's suggestion personal. Others have made similar comments before, i guess u are new here. At the end he wished everyone well but u only wished according to u 'sane ones' well. I don't think its right. Thank you. Cheers
Hello people, please if NDDC contact anyone via email or text message try and let the house know so that others wont keep waiting for the list while they have already contacted successful scholars.
Thanks.
Wish you all the best
thanks @cacking ,the funny part of the post is that i did not meet all the things i suggested,am just assuming ,from the nature of their questions during the interview.so @slimikenna,dont get angry .when i was in university ,after each each exam i will assume what i willl score and write it down,it has been a practice am used to.wish all success
D nddc site has been updated, it's now 08/08/2012 crawlers pls do something
My dear i beg to differ with the 30 mark idea cos i have to say that NDDC wouldn't give a interview opportunity to a candidate with a score of 26 if they know he had no odds of winning the scholarship no matter how small the odds will be. Going by your hypothesis it therefore means these group of candidates have been wasting their time going for the interview.

Do we have to wait eternity for nddc to release the much anticipated list? Na wa oooo!!!. Anyway, God is in control. One luv
Too many theories abound, I know of a certain girl, all she was asked was to sing the national anthem. How can you judge a person's intellect from that? I personally believe the interview was a charade to get the money allocated for the interview process and they would have to fall back to the scores to make final decisions . I mean face it, these people were paid on a daily basis and were to stay in luxury suites for 2weeks. Judging from our Nigerian nature, we would still want to enjoy the spoils of office and go ahead with the interview just for protocol sake. Ask your friends who were interviewed for the RSSDA Oversea PG scholarship program and let them tell how thorough the interview was. If NDDC wanted the best they would have brought more engineering professors to be on that panel.
U mean NDDC wasted dia tym with past beneficiaries of d award who went thru' only d interview process? I tink d interview has a role 2play in gettin d ryt ppl.d last tym i checkd dia website,d director,education/health sed d test was 2 'GET THE RIGHT CANDIDATES 4D INTERVIEW'.she also encouraged youths 2 get in2 engineering 2help in NDDC projects(u can confirm if u wish).dia4, NDDC 2me stil places great importance on d interview.but in al i concur with King's 6th point.Na GOD get d final say.GOD'S FAVOUR ON US ALL.
Frankly I dont know how the interviewers determined what to ask who. But I know that while others laughed as they sang their national anthem, I was seriously considering bailing out from the room during my 'interrogation'. As wiseguy said it wasnt funny for us, it seemed to me they knew more about my course than I did and I had to work hard to defend myself. Anyway, time shall tell if it was for my own good. In the meantime...' ..my soul be still and know that God is by ur side' ..'for what is impossible with man is possible with God'....;and He has plans for me for success and not failure'...'even lions go hungry for lack of food, but he that trusts in the lord lacks nothing good'...oh Father, into Your hands I commend my spirit.
whatever happens, when the list comes out we can still compare the name of the beneficiaries to those that were called for d interview.
The Interview/Aptitude Test was 0n a 60/40 basis.
Now every interviewee was given a numerical score based on their performance.I must say that the interview was very unstructured and did not have any outlined criteria for assessing the interviewees.Questions were thrown at random and from every unimaginable field.Some guy said he was asked to recite the national pledge while another claimed he was asked to list the course modules of his proposed course.
In all this however, I believe the following criteria summarizes your score at the interview.
1.Your Dress Code
2.Boldness and Charisma.
3.Diction and ability to express yourself intelligently.
4.Knowledge about your course of study.
5.Ability to impress the panel.
After this session,every candidate is given a score.At this point in time the list is handed over to the NDDC.The commission then take top scorers and applies other criteria.
1.How relevant is your course to the Oil and Gas Industry and NDDC?
2.What is the rank of your school and the duration of your course?
3.Nigerian Factor.
At this point,those who were at the top of the list may find themselves below due to criteria 1 and 2 above.Criteria 3 then brings in their replacement.
So it is not so much your performance that counts.
However in all of this the God Factor counts most.Wish you well.
@doncheks,datz d most intelligent n logical answer 2dis..my mind kips telin me d interview has greater percentage of d mark,if nt dere wuldnt av bn any interview.
@ezme,a person's IQ can b determined by jus interactin wt him.
My frnd is travellling out moro, he's sch starts soon.. Assuming his name will be included as a beneficiary, what shuld he do b4 leaving moro to US as regards d induction and other processes by nddc here in Nig?
thank GOd u said hope fully,one cant say for sure.i thought we have some one that knows someone that works in nddc in this forum.pls help us get information on hen to expect the list
My frnd is travellling out moro, he's sch starts soon.. Assuming his name will be included as a beneficiary, what shuld he do b4 leaving moro to US as regards d induction and other processes by nddc here in Nig?
@e thang,so ur friend has the funds to start ,thats good its better for him ,i dont think the induction will be compulsory,it will just be a media event for them to show off,he should just keep in touch they will direct him on what to do,those that got theirs last year should be in a better positon to advice him .
@kingjo: Thanks
@techguy: it sure does.. buh's dere specifics abt thiz "letter of auth" ??
...Oooshey!!!
I think you guys should keep your fingers crossed, and stop getting yourselves all worked up..just keep waiting and keep believing that you would be a beneficiary for the award..there's really no gain in worrying..if only worrying could hand over the letter of award into your hands..what causes worry? Fear! For God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind 2 Tim. 1:7...positivity is key, as well as optimism..during the interview, i kept quoting Psa. 34:7, Col. 4:6 and 1 Thes. 5:26 to myself..and i'm very, very positive about this award..guys and girls, relax your nerves, lest you develop a BP at a young age..goodnight guys
