spare me this load of shîttery...
I communicate and help newbies on the upwork community because they don't spew profanities, and hate filled posts under the guise of cruise.🤡

I am the 47th most up voted member on upwork this year. Go figure.

I don't drop nuggets here?
You must be a newbie here then...
At its infant stage of this thread, I dropped a proposal strategy that has changed the lives of two young men here, who thank me everyday...

Ya'll were blind by hate to notice gold at its raw form huh?

I've been called names from a Scammer, to a fake wannabe, and ya'll turn a blind eye to all of these things, but are quick to attack my claims when ya'll are unable to mask your insecurities and envy huh?

I started Odesk in 2008. Bet some of you didn't even have an internet enabled phone then...
So you think someone with that sea of experience will be a small fish?

I can decide to start afresh with a completely new account today, and still earn as much as I do.
Why? My knowledge of the game is deep rooted, and I know the workings of clients.

Just like you hypocritical lots banter here and secretly send me PMS asking for help....


This should be my last post on this thread..
Eeew. Stinks of so much toxicity and envy disguised.


Shut up, you empty vessel. If you keep talking trash I'll expose you soon.

Okay thanks I grab but the last question is not all schools ask for Wes evaluation result

And also is GRE that important ni😯😯


Can I present the result to even schools who doesn’t ask for the evaluated transcript?

No that important though. Your GPA is low, reason for the GRE.

You can present the result to schools, anyone that don't want it will do their internal evaluation themselves.
A win win.

Thanks so much Emiola


Actually after using Wes evaluation calculator on their portal it boosted my result from 2.6 to 2.91



But I don’t know if the 2.91 is okay and also
What about the schools who doesn’t ask for evaluated result
Will I still send them the Wes result too




I’ll be waiting for your response
Thanks

With 2.91 you will get admission, you just need to target schools between 2.5- 2.75 gpa.

Lots of them.

You will use the unofficial copy as your application, that's after doing a real evaluation.

Hi fam
Please I really need help because im stucked
I don’t know how to proceed
My issue is that I just got done with my university and im willing to Apply for MSC in mechanical engineering
My cgpa is not that encouraging because I finished with 2.6 on a scale of 5 and also I don’t have a GRE result

Please fam I need your help on what to do because most school im seeing are saying 2.5 on a scale of 5 and also I haven’t done GRE exam
And also I don’t have my certificate yet because it hasn’t been issued by my school
I only have my transcript and statement of result

Please is it possible for me to be given admission fam

Please assist me with your opinion and view on this matter because I’m so stucked don’t know how to proceed because I’ll like to apply for the next available intake
Funding is not really necessary because my uncle sponsoring me has $25k available for the whole process for me




Realistically, your gpa is low. It's a long process though but if you can do what I say you'll thank me later. A 3rd class bros close to me did these process, now he's in the state now schooling.

First, evaluate your transcript with WES to improve your gpa

Second, search for low ranking schools in rural America and those colder regions where competition is pretty low.

Third, write a GRE test to help you cover up for the low gpa


Fourth, apply to about 7-10 of such schools and earlier to increase your options.

Lastly, thank me later.


Note: The process is fund intensive, exhausting but worth it if you ask me.

Luckily, you can even get funded offer too.

This was my exact same CGPA, I got direct PhD admission with funding in 2013. I think it should still be a competitive CGPA. My GRE score was 312 if I remember correctly.

Don't be deceived! You have to check the department of these your mentors. Some departments don't receive a high volume of applicants like other departments like Data/Business Analytics. The high volume of applicants makes the competition to be fierce.

Also, I can bet you that these guys have a high GPA and graduated with a FIRST CLASS.

Check your CV and ask yourself why would a department want to sponsor your education. What value do you bring to the team? Do you have the useful skills to assist ongoing or future research in the department? They care about your writing samples to see if you are a good researcher. Have you been volunteering in an NGO? This shows you have the social skill to survive the complexity of the graduate school environment.

Be intentional with your application. Find a school not that popular that your application can stand out.

SHALOM!!!

My point exactly, thanks for this comment. So many factors involve in getting good funding.

Exactly. Using an outlier like one Ugochukwu somebody doesnt tell the whole story. Average Naija student with little or no research experience, who doent have any standardized test; and is applying for funding, is doing some disservice to his/her application.

That was before covid, not now anymore. Gre has been waived and will be outlaw soon.
And again, most schools look at several factors when it comes to Graduate application.
SOP, letter of Recommendation, Resume if done right can give good funding.

P.S. I wrote GRE though, and was told blantly it's not needed

That's how they tell you that the GRE is not a requirement and then they tell you that they encourage students to send anyway and provide an actual code grin

If you are a prof and you see two students' applications for funding/GA, one with GRE score and the other without, who would you pick?

Think am well.

I will pick the candidate with 5 years experience with no GRE.

Ugochukwu Madu got into 5 fully funded PhD programs in the US without GRE in fall 2022. Search for him on LinkedIn.

WTF is GRE. A 4 hours exam that has been bastardized with the home edition version. Don't be surprised most high scoring result don't even seat for it anymore, they outsource it.

GRE is expensive for the poor brilliant candidate in the 3rd world countries.

Most schools abroad are coming to terms with this new reality, thanks to Covid, now without GRE graduate are even performing better in school, e.g Florida State University has waived it till 2026.

Alot of schools in the US now waived GRE forever.

I can count 100 top schools that waived it already.

Don't waste your money

Bro, you're right. My profile is very very weak. I need to up my game now. I will try to gather all the other parts of my application, which are GRE, Even if is one publication, stronger SOP, if I have the funds I evaluate my transcript, then apply strategic; strategic I mean is, applying to schools in a region not to known, and also making sure I run away from those hat waive Application fee.

Don't run from school waiving application fees, you need to save cost. Considering the exchange rate, just be competitive and apply early too.
App fee waivers are the sweetest.

I don seek for app waiver tire for these pending 3 universities. Only Purdue sent mail for me to register for graduate fair which will hold in March (already late to me. I would prefer to pay for them consider me for admission and funding under fast track than attend the event and lose out completely.

IOWA State showed me shege last Fall application despite scaling the initial review, and being told they will consider my application for next academic semester since there is no slot to admit me. Few weeks after fall semester started, they sent love letter ).

If you don't mind, can you drop the names of schools you applied to. Might have one or two of them I could apply to, and probably get app fee waiver like you.

Have you evaluate your transcript with WES. They require it.

You need a Killer SOP and evaluate your transcript as well if you have the means. Look for school waiving GRE. And fire back again.

My small question is this:

is there anyone schooling in University of Georgia? I logged into my profile now, and saw that my application has been decided, but they are insisting on me to pay the application fee ($100) which has been pending.

Is there a way Someone can get information on the admission decision without paying going by the fact that the app fee is lot of money. I have already sent email to them today which hopefully they will reply by Monday or Tuesday.

Lastly, does it worth it paying for pending app fee for some pending schools by 3rd week of February? That is when I could raise money to pay for those schools (Ohio State, Purdue, and Oklahoma State )

You don't need to pay all the application fees, don't let all these schools use your money eat suya.

Exchange rate is high.

Seek app fee waiving schools.

I applied to 10 schools, I paid app fees for 2 schools, the other 8 waived it.
