Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Chanteh(f): 6:05pm On Dec 29, 2015 |
Am really glad to find a thread like this on NL. I was opportuned to spend 3 months for a training course in the US and wrote my GRE there. I used 1 month to study plus busy moments during the training. I scored V145 Q143. I was dissapointed and cried all day. Now back to Nigeria and I intend to write again in febuary. Please DanjaNinja can you add me to the fb group? I wish to take insight from all you gurus so I can make more than 300 in my next exam. Thanks to you all and happy holidays. [quote author=DanjaNinja post=41374576] God bless you for sharing. |

Chanteh: DanjaNinja doesn't come here as often as he used to. Drop your facebook email address, and someone will. Get yourself a copy of Barron and Manhattan for the quantitative, then the Magoosh Vocab software and GRE Bigbook for your verbal reasoning. If you've got extra cash to spare, you could also get a Magoosh GRE Account. Getting a 300+ would be a walk in the park if you can practise diligently using these materials. All the best. 3 Likes |

Hello Stolid. Dman and all gurus in the house. Please I hope to write my gre by February. I want to know if Feb isn't to late to write the test. Cos am applying for fall 2016. Please advice. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Nobody: 7:48pm On Dec 29, 2015 |
masquellett:in my opinion,its TOO late if you want funding, most good schools deadline for funding is dec 2015 and some max January 2016..my advice is for you to plan towards applying for S 2017 or Fall 2017. cheers |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Nobody: 8:06pm On Dec 29, 2015 |
masquellett: It depends on if you'll be needing some funding or you're OMO BABA OLOWO. But my advice is that you take your time like Femi suggested. I mean, you need time to prepare for the GRE. Feb is pretty early if you haven't commenced preparation at all. Also you may need to write the TOEFL, contact professors, conduct intensive research on schools and interests. These things take time. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by essayHelp(m): 8:15pm On Dec 29, 2015 |
Chanteh: For scores of 160+ in both sections, you would ideally need 2 - 3 months of prep and the following materials. 1) Official Guides + Manhattan 5lb book + Nova math. For a more comprehensive prep, the online resources below are also useful. 2) Manhattan's 6 online practice tests + magoosh's $99 premium plan. If you have an adequate math foundation or are scoring above 155 in Quantitative practice tests, Barron's, Gruber, Mcgraw-Hill, and Princeton Review are all useless (for top Quant scores). 4 Likes 1 Share |

fizzile: Why not send a mail to the three other schools and ask if they will accept an evaluated copy of your transcript. So it will be easy to send to all four through WES. |

N depending on how close u r to d application deadline, u can send d transcript by post, it's going to be cheaper dat way but will take approximately 3weeks to deliver |

stolid: thanks bro. But how to one get research papers of professors from schools, i tried using google, but it didnt work. I want to contact them directly so as to know my chances. I believe quoting some lines in their research work gives them the ginger to quickly reply one. please reply asap. Thanx |

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by pennstate(m): 12:54pm On Dec 30, 2015 |
masquellett: If you want to quote thats fine. But for me I will rather go to the Department "Faculty" member page and look at the faculty member(s) research interest one after the other to see which fits into your own interest, from there you can now send mail to them that you are majoring in thier area of interest. In some cases some faculty member will even say (under their research interest) that if you are interest in AB and C please contact me. I have seen that alot. 3 Likes |

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Nobody: 1:35pm On Dec 30, 2015 |
masquellett: What I do is go to the departmental website, get an idea of ongoing research works at the department, try to understand what they are about and then tailor my research interest to whichever piques my interest. In my email, I try to explain how the Professor's research work would be beneficial to Nigeria, and indicate keen interest in being a part of his project. Attimes I also attach my undergraduate research work to the email. |
