seeker88: Thanks man, I ve done the conversion. Please anybody to help with schools in U.S I can apply to with appropiate funding, I am writing the Gre next month. Course, Chemical engineering(msc) |

Azekimo: If you are aiming for Fall 2017, then is pretty late and time is running out fast. I advice you to apply immediately and inform the schools you are yet to write GRE but have chosen a test date. Check msinus.com, Edulix.com to find the list of schools that are still accepting applications. I don't know your profile but funding is generally easier for PhD compared to MSc. Check the previous 5 pages of this thread where a number of engineering hopefuls discussed their application. Reading your previous post I can see you have written GRE before, What are you doing differently this time around to get a better score? |

Good morning guys, trust all is well...one thing that has been a thorn in my rose is trying to do tasking things simultaneously, I therefore come around looking unserious as if I haven't planned, truth is that I haven't planned well. I intended writing the GRE in January, then I shifted it to like April, now I'm shifting to June/July, reason is that I'm caught btw finishing a professional exam in ICAN or not. I have made it clear now that I intend to finish up with ICAN (have 6 papers left, will write 2 in MAY), I plan to prepare for both anyways, but with more focus for ICAN and when that is through I can then up my GRE game for the next few weeks. I'm saying all these because I believe I'm not the only one in these shoes, whatever it is, just take things one at a time. It's not easy but TRY!! 1 Like |

Time2Smile: Yap. you are right, I noted that from previous posts, particular that of the bros who also studied chemical engineering with KFUPM MS scholarship. meanwhile, I was also provisionally admitted at KFUPM, Saudi with only Gre scores condition to join for fall, 2017. I am as well considering some US schools. I have mailed Mississippi state university graduate coordinator with reply that he currently did no know of anyone needing a MS student at this time( does that imply that I should not border applying?). additionally, I have stevens institute of technolgy as per my writing of Gre next month because they have graduate assistanships (which the deadline to be considered for that is March 1st) but yet to get their response. So, the need for some other US schools. My undergraduate GPA 4.437/5.0( WES conversion 3.62/4.0, IELTS scores 6.5 band). Thanks. |

Good afternoon everyone, I need your opinions on this issue. I studied Building in the University of Lagos and I'm working towards doing my masters soon in Construction engineering and management which happens to be a specialization in the department of civil engineering. I was opportune to take a wide variety of civil courses during my undergrad including structural analysis, structural design, mechanics of materials, soil mechanics, foundation engineering and fluid mechanics which I had Bs save for fluid mechanics. I want your advice on if I'll be considered for the course despite the fact that my bachelors degree is in Building and not Civil engineering. I'll be so glad if I can get your opinions, it will mean a lot. |

kayuscares4u: Google. Call the numbers and talk to a rep. Take note, that you would need to create a GRE or TOEFL account on ets.org before then so the process will be seamless. I recommend calling them tomorrow morning say 8-12 (noon) |

Hi guys, I have been following this thread for a while and I must say that I'm impressed with the love and friendship here. Kudos to you all. I need clarification on an issue. If I take the GRE before starting the online application, should I send the scores to my preferred schools at the test centre or should I send scores after starting the online application? |

Studying for Gre is so diffficult , I'm currently serving in a construction company, I leave home early and return late , I try my best to study at work when I'm less busy and I make sure to study intensively on weekends. I feel I'm not doing enough, I'm planning to apply in 2018 and I want to score above 320. Can anyone advice me as to how to move forward and do better? |

EconMajor: Send at the test centre. The department still knows how to link the official copy with the online application. If you send the scores after the application you'd pay $27 for each score report which is above N14k. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Nobody: 1:41pm On Feb 08, 2017 |
preciouschydo: both IELTS and GRE are very important, Also check your school requirements for assistant-ship you might discover that gre is included too. |

temmitats: Studying may have little impact but early preparation has helped you especially since you are considering 2018. I would recommend you gave yourself 4/5months of less study and more full-length tests i.e both essays and VQVQE as oft as possible. Full-length tests trump any other preparatory methods. When I was preparing for the GRE I got near perfect scores in my Q (PowerPrep Test 1 169 and one of the Kaplan Tests 170) but that was because I skipped the verbal and did it at a later time. Preparing for the GRE that way won't help you because it would give you a false sense of security seeing that I was full of energy when I tested myself both times. If I had done the Full-length tests I am sure I may have scored lower because I would have been tired by the 2nd Q especially if one ends up getting 3 Qs and not know which one is the experimental. Practising Full-length tests will enable you test your endurance the same way it would be on the actual day and if you discipline yourself during the practice you won't feel the impact of the grueling 4hr exams on the D-day. Apart from helping with one's endurance level Full-length tests actually programme you to devise strategies that could help on test day and show you topics that you may not be fully-cognizant of, better than just pouring through various books trying to understand the intricacies. For instance, some people skip the first 8 Q questions that are quantitative comparisons and tackle them last. Finally, Full-length tests are near perfect indicators of whether you are close to the 320+ target score. Forget Adrenaline, if you are not hitting 320+ during your practice, chances are, you won't hit it on the main day. In fact, one's score could improve or reduce by a margin of 4 on both sides during the main day. Everyone I know that hit say 160+ in the V had done so consistently during practice. Same goes for the Q. Obviously there would be outliers to this theory but the evidence is clear even on this thread. The guy who hit 330 early January said he was getting above 160 in his V throughout his practice and I believe he hit 165 in one of his PowerPrep V's which he replicated on the main day. Same goes for the guy that had 167 in his Q. 4 Likes |

preciouschydo: If you wanted to "hoodwink" the VO during the visa interview GRE would be better. But even in that case, try not to score very low. Of course, you could always still say it was waived even if you wrote it, but you want them to see you as a serious student. IELTS is not that popular in the US. |
