Mehn that embassy environment is quite tight , all this while I pass Walter carington bustop on a daily basis , I never knew inside that road was that beautiful , I mean that water view and the serene environment just make sense die.
Anyways I Started all the normal procedures and got to the counter ** those security checks were just too much I had to pull my belt and wristwatch .
My confidence level was at 90 percent the remaining -10 % was because of fear of the unknown , anything can happen. But I kept looking around and shining my teeth acting like I was a boss.

Make una no vex for me hiding info using bleep or Bleep
U know the VO's are on this thread. To avoid stories that touch.

I sha leave the venue , I was not really happy , I knew I had gotten the visa , but that joy nairalanders claim they feel when they get their visas was not just there. Until I got outside and people were congratulating me as if I had won lottery , I started to get happy and started feeling good.

He did not even know I had a scholarship.

When I got out of the embassy and got to the express trekking , looking for the nearest bustop , from no where police bus just come stop me. Some were in mufty while some in uniform , they asked me to hand over my file (all of them were squeezing their face trying to intimidate me) I handed over the file to him , then he starts checking through looking for my account statement. The guy asked me who owned the statement , I told him my dad , he asked me where is my dad , I asked him which kind of question is that. They all looked at time with surprise , then I cleared them on the spot and told them I have read about what they do on the internet , that I just got my visa and my statement is legit they should not disturb me I have no fake documents, he asked me where my father works (I was scared of telling them , them fit be fake police and fit go kidnap me). I sha looked at their uniforms well and told him. Then they gave me back my documents .

Chapecoense:

it will be hard to see someone who has SAT materials here, might be wrong sha, most ppl here are up for Msc, few UG applicants, even the few UG applicants might not be doing the SAT, and even if some did, they'll be passing on their materials to their younger ones..
Some of the hard copies sold at the bus stop are preowned, so they will come very cheap compared to what embassy will sell for you or buying it online..
Wallspring can talk better on the SAT material.

*put hands on the head* lol .. Well, I'm hoping someone who knows someone who knows anyone that can be of help will come my way..

Thanks again for this response

@wallspring howdy?
