rabidvirus:The said GRE score they used is now old. They mean 1200/1600, combined score, I. E quant/ 800 and verbal/800. Now, it is quant/170 and verbal/170. Try to convert from the 1600 old scale to the current 340 scale. Around 314/340. |

@sirRiddy and the house, make una rescue me here ohh. Have anyone successfully applied and paid application fees to schools like University of Oklahoma and University of Houston application system that use "Applyweb" portal. I started an application on those schools and till date I can't make payment using my visa card. The error message is " ADDRESS VERIFICATION MISMATCH. The Billing Address did not match that of the cardholder. Please correct". Anyone experiencing the same problem and how did you go about it. |

Lamexx: Lol, dis shii happened to me few months ago, if not dat I have used d same card and billing address to make oda payments online, I would have tot I dunno wat m doing... My story is quite famous here, I even had friends in us n uk to help me make payment but it didn't work.

Good people of Nigeria I am sorry that I have been away for sometime. I have been working on my applications. Just a quick one: Please how can I prepare a beautiful Statement of purpose (SOP) for a degree in Data Science/Computer science Does anyone have a link that I might find helpful? Thank you. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by pennstate(m): 4:21pm On Jan 28, 2016 |
rogerdavid: Your SOP should include the following: - Why you want to study the MSc, your motivations. - Education background. - Research/Work Experience - Extracurricular Activity (If any) - What attracted you to the program. - Why you think you fit into the program - Specific area(s) you will like to advance. - What the degree will do for you. When you put all these together you should have a good SOP. 9 Likes |

ismadex: Hello ismdex, Most graduate schools in the US requirement is GRE. If you don't wanna write the exam, then, you have to look elsewhere like Canada etc. Also, make google your best friend and familiarize yourself with the school website and send email to the graduate secretary of any school of your choice. S/He will be the best to provide you an answer to most of your question(s) not people on this thread. The people here can only guide you. I stand to be corrected. **cheers** |

Ajibade105:Is it possible to get into MIT with a 2 1 with insane GRE scores. I didn't have my bsc in Nigeria though and am looking at either MIT umich or university of california berkeley. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Ajibade105(m): 10:24am On Jan 29, 2016 |
tensazangetsu: I can only advise you if I know your last 60 credits results, I mean last 2years result (300level and 400level or otherwise) and if you share with me your GRE score. You can also use the WES online free evaluation to know this. To do this, click the link http://www.wes.org/students/igpacalc.asp This is my email if you want a private chat; ajibade.kehinde@yaho.com 1 Like |

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Ajibade105(m): 11:13am On Jan 29, 2016 |
tensazangetsu: Good to hear. I would advice you write GRE and apply to US schools during your last semester in University. Goodluck in your search. |

Ajibade105:I don't think the young man needs such advice. People should not be in a hurry to travel out. Let d young man finish school den take his time and plan himself. What of those sponsoring him? Don't u tink they will also need to plan themselves? Don't advice him wrongly. First tnz first. Let d guy finish his first degree. How about his transcript? Won't he send it to WES and to the department of the school? Let's advice him to tk d step gradually. 2 Likes |

I thought their application ended on the 8th cos I wanted the 2 of them however, I used my GTBank master card on that portal for NAU and it went through, you just select the credit card option and you put your card number with day cw2 at d back as password or something... Jes discovered 3 days ago.... Cc Cephas0009 @house how long does it take transcript to reach dia ooo cos am sweating... deadline super short... Lamexx: |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Nobody: 12:28pm On Jan 30, 2016 |
@carterIV it depends on the courier..Nipost takes 3weeks or forever, DHL takes max of 3days and max of 5days |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by fizzile(m): 12:53pm On Jan 30, 2016 |
femi321:How's the rate of DHL like? Cos I heard they charge between 8k to 12k to send documents to US |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by lobito007(m): 2:36pm On Jan 30, 2016 |
Ajibade105:This is interesting. Thank you for sharing. I tried it and got a result. However, I have my concern. Are the last two sessions' results really enough to determine your grade over 4? I had a 5-year program in school. Would the grade over 4 have been the same if I had input the entire stretch of the 5-year grades? |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by oluphy: 3:38pm On Jan 30, 2016 |
lobito007:Of cos not.. it depends on ur GPA for those 2 sessions.... if they are higher than ur graduating CGPA, the equivalent will be higher.... it all depends on ur CGPA |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by oluphy: 3:39pm On Jan 30, 2016 |

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Ajibade105(m): 4:00pm On Jan 30, 2016 |
lobito007: Some schools required last 60 credits which I guess is the last two sessions of study. You can also input all results from 100-500l. Check the requirements of the school(s) you are apply to. |

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Nobody: 6:28pm On Jan 30, 2016 |
fizzile:Nipost is #350 but you might end up hearing stories that touch about your document, fedex too should be about 8k. I dont know anything about ems. if you dont have time, dhl is your best bet. safe and efficient but expensive 2 Likes |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by lobito007(m): 7:50pm On Jan 30, 2016 |
Guys, nipost does wonders these days. I dropped an application to be posted to Germany at their office on the 11th of jan. The lady attendant told me it would arrive there in 2 weeks. However, on the 21st, the school mailed me that they had received the package. How incredible! I was really impressed. This was at a cost of N680 only. To imagine that I had previously paid 11,000(general discounted price) and 8,500(student price) on different occasions for posts to the same country through DHL. I reflexively yelled "f*** dhl!". #TeamNipost 3 Likes |
