CarterIV: True talk bro. I wrote my first GRE at Jeptha international school in ph. The noise from the keyboard was a big distraction to me. I wonder if ETs knows about this. Providing noise cancellation ear phones would really help noise sensitive students like myself. 1 Like |

CarterIV: Be mindful of schools who contact you. Great to average schools rarely scout for students. At the end of the day, what really matters are - the quality of the curriculum,available funding as well as on campus work opportunities. The international composition of the school also matter greatly. An average, above average as well as great school usually have a well balanced composition of students. In these schools, you would get the opportunity of interacting with real americans. This is a great plus and you wouldnt know how invaluable it is untill you arrive. I currently study at a below average university. Its filled with international students - mostly indians and The professors are mostly internationals as well. On campus work opportunities and funding opportunities are pretty slim. To be honest, it doesnt feel like am in the us. Would i attend this university if i had a second chance? Hell No. So, in essence, be mindful of schools that contact you. Before committing to attend any university, do your research very well. |

femi321: Thanks for this bro. This is one issue i was gonna talk about. Like you correctly stated, its advisable to correctly use the four free score reports. If you dont utilize them properly, it would cost you $27 per school to send your scores to additional schools. So my people,it is good practise and cost effective to do a proper research and make a list of four schools you would like to apply to before writing the Gre. Thanks @femi321 Am glad you brought this up. |

CarterIV: Nice. When registering for the Search Service, did you declare your undergraduate GPA as A/A+? ETS does not allow schools to search candidates by GRE score bands only. Instead, the search result is populated by individuals who meet either the undergraduate GPA OR GRE score band criteria. 1 Like |

Hey guys,please I need your response. I have registered for the next GRE which is built for February. I want to know how long it takes for WES to evaluate results? I have a B.Sc but the CGPA isn't too good,but I just finished a PGD where I had 3.87/5.00. Please during evaluation,should I send both transcripts for evaluation? Secondly,do I apply for my current CGPA or I should apply when its been evaluated yet? Will appreciate your replies. |

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Cephas0009: 7:58am On Dec 28, 2015 |
fizzile: How long it takes WES to evaluate ur result depends largely on you. For instance, mine took about 2months to be completed. But these are a few tips I will give u as a result of lesson learnt: 1. You should knw dat u can't send any documents until u av applied 4 an evaluation and dat means until u av made payment. 2. This also means you can't apply 4 ur transcript earlier as u will need d reference number that will be issued to u. 3. So depending on how long it takes ur school to prepare ur transcript, mine takes approximately 2weeks, den about anoda 1week to send it by courier. That's 3week. In order to save cost I recommend u send photocopy of ur certificate by post, it should b delivered by d time ur transcript get dr. Well mine did and 4 less dan 500naira.if it doesn't den u can send by courier if u are in a hurry 4. Now dis is where d slight issue now is, verification of your transcript, dey will write to ur school 4 verification and expect a response, it's is ur responsibility to get in touch with your school and pay any charges dat willl speeed up d process. You knw how things can be handled with levity in dis country, so u av to iron out a strategy here just in case dey chose to verify ur transcript. 5 Finally, it can be very annoying and frustrating to find out dat after taking your gre and english proficiency test earlier to meet d early application deadline and even submitted all applications, ur application file to a school lies in their shelve and diaris nothing dey can do because ur transcript is still missing so I advice u do it as early as u can. So for u writing gre in February and u r sure a 3rd party result evaluation is a requirement, even if u haven't concluded on d school yet, u can go on and apply 4 d evaluation, you can always send it to schools later in life.

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by bigfrancis21: 11:58am On Dec 29, 2015 |
BiggyB242: You can only transfer if you're already present in the US and you must have gotten admission already from the school you wish to transfer to plus the new I20 with the same start semester period as the one you're transferring from. The transfer process isn't difficult at all and is basically the release of your SEVIS records by the old school for the new school to pick up. It usually takes about 5 days. You can transfer immediately on arrival to the US without having to attend the first school at all but you must arrive early before the resumption date of both schools to do this, for once the first school has already started you might have to complete the first semester with them before being eligible to transfer out the following semester, which of course means deferring your admission from your second school to the following semester to be able to transfer the following semester or transfer after a semester or two depending on you. 2 Likes 1 Share |
