effulgence: Good day everyone.I applied to study history(masters) at East tennessee state university and just yesterday I received an email that I have been considered for admission by fall.Please is etsu a good school and is it recognised by the US embassy?Although I haven't done GRE because it isn't needed by the school,do you think I should do it,having acquired a diploma in history before my degree programe?does anyone school or reside in tennessee to inform me the economic and social condition of that place?Lastly,any other information considered important to my visa application is also welcomed.Thanks and God blessbb

teNNeSSEE....hmmmmm..... one of the two states in US with double letter three times. So far it's state university and not international university that one building schools usually used as cover up..... you should be fine.

Yes of course, even apply for visa too but the simple truth is that Devry I-20 won't get you visa the first 4 trials. Do you still love the school?

Hello nairalanders. I am new on this site and I would like to know if anyone has any idea how to write prerequisites for second degree nursing wit a visiting visa. Since you need to have them before you apply for the nursing proper. Pls help shed more light on this. Thanks

Hello House, I would like to know how many months a person who works and only has time to read once a week needs to fully prepare for GRE. Estimates will be just fine. Thnks guys.

It depends on a lot of other things - how good you are at aptitude tests (IQ), how fast you can grasp new stuff, your command of english, arithmetic skills anf ofcourse, your target score. Imho, however, once a week z too infrequent for the average person. I prepared for close to 3 mths, 2-3hrs everyday and i felt i still wasnt ready. i fink d deal is intensive reading for a short time (2-3 mths) so you dont forget things you learnt early

Snazzygirl: Hello House, I would like to know how many months a person who works and only has time to read once a week needs to fully prepare for GRE. Estimates will be just fine. Thnks guys.

Depends on how well grounded you are in maths & English & standardized testing generally. Some people prepare fro GRE on their own within 3 months and score over 300 while some people attend tutorials and prepare for 6 months and stil score less than 300. I suggest you assess yourself personally (maybe by taking a sample practice test) and determine how much time and effort you'll need to put in. For an average to fairly brilliant student, I'd say 3 months intense preparation ( whether you are working or not) is good enough to get a good score. if you've had prior experience with standardized tests like the SAT, you may need less than that coz really, the GRE like all standardized tests involves speed and skill in answering the questions and not just knowledge alone. All the best.

Please ,am new here.I would like to know if it is compulsory to sit for GRE and TOEFL exams before applying for masters(MBA) in USA.

Chusino: Please ,am new here.I would like to know if it is compulsory to sit for GRE and TOEFL exams before applying for masters(MBA) in USA.
You'll most likely write GMAT (not GRE) and maybe TOEFL if going for MBA. GMAT is compulsory for many US schools and TOEFL is required by some schools and not required by the others. Some US schools recognize Nigeria as English-speaking and hence excludes Nigeria from providing TOEFL while the others don't recognize her as English-speaking.
In addition, some schools that demand for TOEFL can waive it for you if you put into writing that you have a good command of English given your whole education in English or English is your first native tongue. University of Alabama asked me to write exactly that statement. Lolol. I did and TOEFL was waived for me.

During my time I prepared for the GRE in just a month. And I did well. I was very free then and I gave the reading my full attention. Well, as someone here said, it depends on how much free time you have, your ability to grasp fast, english and math skills, etc
Since you're working, any time between 1 - 3 months will be enough for you.
