1. Ensure to streamline your study and make it fall within the secondary school syllabus (WAEC/NECO). Interswitch SPAK is not like NMC Olympiad and does not require advanced study. Your textbooks are perfectly okay.
Some specific recommendations include,
-Modern Biology
-Essential Biology
-New School Physics
-MAN Mathematics (SSS1-SSS3)
– New School Chemistry by Ababio
2. Test your speed by practicing online WAEC CBT Exams on platforms such as “myschool.ng”. You can also make use of Multiple choice WAEC/NECO Objectives Questions.
3. Get previous past question to get to understand the way the exams questions are set. Past Questions Websites like Huffstack offer a wide range of competition past questions, including InterswitchSPAK.
4. For the exams, make sure use of a phone or PC with very good internet connection. You can make use of a Mifi to avoid phone calls during the CBT Exams- this is because phone calls interrupt internet connection.
If you still have any enquiries concerning the CBT exams, feel free to Contact us via the “Contact Us” Page. Wishing you success…

Interswitch SPAK 2022 Exam Date and Format and Guidelines (Interswitch SPAK 4.0)
Interswitch SPAK has announced the date for the 2022 Quiz Competition. This year’s Interswitsch SPAK registration is open till May 11th, 2022.
Online exams will take place from Thursday 19th to Saturday 21st May. Students have a choice of 3 days to pick from between 8:00am-6:00pm to write the examination
Quick fact: Did you know that SPAK means Speed, Perseverancse, Accuracy and Knowledge?
The Exams will be written online. A quick breakdown of the Exam format is below: Students will be tested in Subject 4 areas- Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Biology.
The Exam will consist of 100 questions.
A pre-test will be available for students to get familiar with the website after which exams will commence. Students are allowed to take the pre-test only once.
The total number of attempts allowed may be 1 or 2 pending a final decision for InterswitchSPAK
Below are basic guidelines to help with Exam Success
Do away with the fear: Interswitch SPAK past questions are not as tough as people think. You just have to understand time management. The truth is most of their questions are basic and are drawn from the familiar secondary school curriculum. In a subject like biology for instance, all you need is the modern biology and essential biology textbook together with past questions from WAEC for practice.
For mathematics you need your normal mathematics textbook like MAN Mathematics- following the mathematics curriculum, for chemistry New School Chemistry and Physics- New School Physics.
