TIME MANAGEMENT.........EXAMINATION HALL

We have concluded and thought of solving the problem that is very common to Nigerian students both in primary, secondary and tertiary level. Please read this guide through and adjust yourself;
 
One of the most important thing that need to be tackled for all exams is the time management to answer the questions within the period of time given. Nobody can help if you not have enough time for the unanswered questions yet. Consequently, the mind focus for answering the questions might be distracted and lead to a panic situation.
Here are some tips on how to control your time during an exam being held. This actually contributes to achieve a good result besides good preparation and revision of the subject.
(1) Get the total period of time given on the front page of question paper.
(2) Take about 5 minutes to get an overview of the entire questions to start planning to answer.
•   Format of question: True / False, objective question, structured question, essay question.
•   Parts of question.
•   Marks for each part and questions.
(3) Allocate time for each question. The basic rule is 1.5 minutes for 1 mark.
•   True/False, Objective questions: For example, 20 questions for 20 marks. So, the time needed is 30 minutes only.
•    Structured and essay questions: For example, a question for 15 marks. So, the time needs to be allocated is roughly 22.5 minutes.
(4) Always start with the objective questions first before answering the structured questions.
(5) Proceed answering the next question after finished the current question without wait the allocated time expired. If stuck at any particular question, go to another question without wasting the time.
(6) After all questions have been viewed, back to the beginning of the question and go directly to the unanswered questions again within the remaining of the time available.
(7) Last but not least, always see the clock after answering each question so that the time is under control.

University Rag societies are student-run charitable fundraising organisations that are widespread in the United Kingdom and Ireland . Most universities in the UK and Ireland, as well as some in South Africa and the Netherlands have a Rag.

OLD SKOOL DAY..... AFTER PARTY

By Asiwaju Michael A.  In slang, old school (or old skool ) can refer to anything that is from an earlier era or anything that may be considered old-fashioned . The term is commonly used to suggest a high regard for something that has been shown to have lasting value or quality.   An after party would be held today in which girls get free ticket and boys pays N500 as gate fee. For you that do not know how old skool came into the broad light, i have compiled some history for you to read. THE ORIGINS The Old Skool debuted in 1977 as the so-called "Style 36", and showcased the now iconic Vans sidestripe. A new low-top style as Vans' first skate shoe that incorporated leather panels, the company that had been founded as the Van Doren Rubber Company in Anaheim in 1966 had a new classic silhouette on its hands.
