Victor.mensah (talk)05:05, 7 September 2009

Victor.mensah (talk)05:07, 7 September 2009
 

Are there any other issues that a Lion needs help from another Lio? This will be a good forum to discuss with the group and get support.

Victor.mensah (talk)04:53, 7 September 2009

DO we all agree to another meeting next week Sunday?

Victor.mensah (talk)04:57, 7 September 2009

Victor - let me clear, what are we attacking first and who will do what. Thats what we need so that we can make progress .

JEREMIAH CHAPHXANYA (talk)05:00, 7 September 2009

Utang will update her document with all inputs from members and circulate by Friday morning. Then we can proceed from there. We will perhaps have to assign a guidance leader per subject so that she/he can give us more details. I will issue a follow-up by Friday evening after consulting Luisa on this.

Victor.mensah (talk)05:02, 7 September 2009
 

Yes, please spell it out clearly for us, so we know our responsibilities --Shumimlingo 17:02, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

STUDY/REVISION PLANS

Any tips, points, tricks? etc that is working for members that can be shared? No juju/vodoo please <smile>.

Victor.mensah (talk)04:40, 7 September 2009

The first trick of any open book is the race against time taking into cognisance that you might be having a pile of books and material which you will be perusing. In order to win in such exams you should be focussed and well researched.

Hove (talk)04:48, 7 September 2009
 

Victor - you may need to order the Ghananian voodooo for the team mate...Lol

JEREMIAH CHAPHXANYA (talk)04:50, 7 September 2009

hahaha! JC, i will let Akachi order some from his neighbor Benin for you <lol>

Thanks Hove for your point

Victor.mensah (talk)04:54, 7 September 2009
 

Sleepless nights jokes. This can be guided by the requirements of the open book exam, if it is only the prescribed texts or any resource materials. What is SBL position. my other worry is no one seem to hve any information on 915 please lets share.--Shungunyoni 16:53, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

Shungunyoni (talk)04:53, 7 September 2009

I believe ONLY prescribed testboks are allowed. But we still need clarification from SBL

Victor.mensah (talk)04:56, 7 September 2009

I do not think so, they need only prescribed books. Any material which you feel can assist you in writting the exam is allowed. No cellphones and laptops are the only material not allowed to use

Hove (talk)04:59, 7 September 2009

I'm incline to agree with Hove, though I stand to be corrected. --Shumimlingo 17:01, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

Victor.mensah (talk)04:15, 7 September 2009

Victor - In stead of requesting for this and that on wiki, why not task the group to provide you with contributions on the topics for all the courses, and then you can assign / allocate to individuals and we build up from there. Just my suggestion. Give us until Wednesday to get back to you, and then you aim to communicate with the group on Saturday on the results and who is doing what and when.

JEREMIAH CHAPHXANYA (talk)04:27, 7 September 2009

That is a good idea. Perhaps we can receive all possible areas/topics by subject area and compile for the attention of all members. We can task one person to collate all these and share with us by Saturday so we do final points next week. What do members think of this?

Victor.mensah (talk)04:34, 7 September 2009

Another excellent starting point is the May test questions.

JEREMIAH CHAPHXANYA (talk)04:36, 7 September 2009
 

good idea, lets move ahead...

Kay go (talk)04:37, 7 September 2009
 

I think its a good idea but we might come with our different ideas.

Hove (talk)04:38, 7 September 2009
 

Guys I think Utang has done the basic job for us on this. If you have a look at the e-mail she sent some minutes ago, it covers what we need to cover for the exam.

I hope I'm understanding the suggestion well --Shumimlingo 16:39, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

Shumimlingo (talk)04:39, 7 September 2009

So if Utang has made something then thats the starting point

Hove (talk)04:41, 7 September 2009

Thanks you all for your comments. Kindly send any additions to Utang's document to her and cc us all. I will kindly task Utang to take a look at your inputs, update her document and resend to all of us by next week Friday. Thanks for your inputs on this point.

Victor.mensah (talk)04:48, 7 September 2009
 

That's a very good summary from Utang.....

JEREMIAH CHAPHXANYA (talk)04:46, 7 September 2009
 
 
 

No...I do not have any mock exams. The HR questions are the only public exam question guide received. --Shumimlingo 16:29, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

Shumimlingo (talk)04:29, 7 September 2009
 

Guys, i am waiting for your responses

Victor.mensah (talk)04:29, 7 September 2009

Myself i do not have anything at the moment. I think we need to do some research into this matter.
