You Are Not Prepared For ICT If You Do Not Know These Acronyms (Part 3). Passing the ICT examination is partly dependent on your knowledge of the acronyms. Sometimes, WAEC will not ask you to state what each letter in the abbreviation stands for. They can go ahead and ask what it means. So for example, WAEC can ask candidates to define DOS. This is a twofold question; what the abbreviation stands for and furthermore, the definition of the abbreviation? Therefore, if the candidate does not know what the abbreviation stands for, there is no way the candidate can define it.
Never look for Apor, do a very good revision, and use our questions to test your readiness. Good luck with your exam.
