I registered for the Olympiad ICT but I can’t see any reply in my email , I TRIED to register again, it’s telling me I have registered before ,please is there a solution
I shall do a little fact-finding, and get back to you before the day is over.
plsss, I knw m late but can I still register
Check your spam folder, you would find your message there.
how are we going to write the exam on line
A message will be sent to your email Inbox, the one you used in registering. Ensure to check your mails regularly, and your Spam messages too. All the best
please i do not know that they have done online test before because registered in the school and we were not given any information
No, it hasn’t been held yet. It has been shifted to Wednesday, December 9th. Make sure to check your email and text messages REGULARLY.
I have problem with that e-mail
,can i change it to my second e-mail
I don’t think you can.Because you will only receive notifications on the phone number and email address you used in registering. What exactly is the nature of the problem? If the email address is somehow out of use, perhaps you will get to see the notification as a text message on your phone.
Does the online aptitude test have a venue and duration?
Latest news from their website says that the first stage of the online aptitude test slated for November 30th has been postponed to December 9th. Notices will (may have been) sent to your phone number or email address that you used in registering. Never fail to check your emails and text messages REGULARLY.
My besties.
pls, i registered and i was given all necessary info. but i cannot access to my email because it has been locked temporarily and i dont have the sim that i used to open it and they have sent the unlock code to the number.pls i need some help about this.
This is a dicey situation, Tijani. But rest assure, I will speak with the head of media and publicity tomorrow about your issue, and will get back to you on his verdict. Don’t lose heart just yet, prepare for the test like everything is going to be alright.
My warm regards.
Dear Tijani,
I spoke with one of the ICT Olympiad representatives, and there is nothing to be done about it. The information gathered from registered students has already been collated and sent, there can be no back-tracking to that stage anymore. Let’s hope you can get your SIM unblocked before tomorrow. Besides, didn’t you register the temporary out-of-service email address with an alternate email address? If yes, check to see if the unblocking information was also sent there.
My besties.
my sim is not blocked but missed. i dont know where exactly it is. but came i recieve my question via text message and reply via text message?
No. One of the rules of engagement is that you need an internet-enabled device. Besides, you will have to enter your log-in details, along with other information (which I presume you don’t have) to sit for the test.
i’m not calm because i don’t want to miss this exam. i went to retrieve my lost sim today but they said i will take up to 24hr before it works.
I don’t know have the test details myself. Can you find out from friends who have received the message, if there are any?
i was trying to unlock my email but they were sending the code into the lost sim. infact i’m like crying
While you were registering that email address, did you include an alternate email address? If yes, the code would also be sent to that email address.
I have also registered for the ict olympiad, i have not see any message
Have you checked all your text messages, email Inbox and Spam? Further, did you give accurate information during registration?
