"Thank you for applying for a job in DFID Pakistan and participating in the online test.

Your score for the test is: 33 </>

Minimum passing percentage for this test was 60% (30 Marks). If you have passed the test we will be contacting you soon for further proceedings.

We regret if you were unable to pass the test. We appreciate your interest in joining DFID Pakistan and wish you all the best for future endeavors."

I also appeared in the online test held by DFID. What i rember that test was consisting of 40 marks and 60% comes to 24. If qualifying marks r 30, it means candidate getting 75% will considered for interview. Anway i got 30 marks n will be considered for interview. Gud Luck e.body

I scored 24 in DFID test. I have a question regarding on-line tests.
How DFID can ensure that a person has attempted an on-line test by not seeking some one's help (cheating) during the test? I think on-line test is not the best way to judge some one's abilities.
What are your views....????
Thanx

[QUOTE]How DFID can ensure that a person has attempted an on-line test by not seeking some one's help (cheating) during the test[/QUOTE]

I dont endorse ur point of view. V should always think in positive way. As u hv also appeared in the test then y u did not seek the help of any body. Yes some 1 may have sought slight help but there was not sufficient time to call anybody and seek the help. Time margin was v limited and it did not allow any one to cheat. I personally feel, it was fair test. Thinking differs from person to person, n cant be restricted.
