This is not the correct way to approach GRE, your exam is already close and you are just asking for soft copy. GRE is all about assiduous and smart preparation. You might want to postpone the exam if possible.
You will find almost all materials you can possibly need here http://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B-ii97JplpxMdzhHNnYxSUlPOEE All the best. thanks bro hmmm God help me let me go n try my luck.I am trying to meet up with fall 2018.I was more concerned with Ielts/toefl bcuz I thought I was going to apply to schools in Australia. |

Bros, this isn't Naija where there is discrimination against your diploma; your OND+HND == BSc. What you need to do first is evaluate your transcript for correct conversion. And then you can apply for MSc. with some sweet Federal $$ in funding ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) . .... did you finish with distinction or upper? 1 Like |

We do a lot of secondary school coursework as freshmen here In Nigeria, so You won't have matching course requirement with most schools. 2 Likes |

To stand a better chance at applying, you need to do WES evaluation of your HND and ND degrees into a US equivalent bachelor's degree. Your HND and ND GPAs are very strong and you could come out to around 3.5/4.0 US GPA, making you very eligible to apply to US schools accepting WES evaluation directly for Master's degree. |

LagosismyHome:
No you don't need transit visa as long as you remain in the terminal and dont come out or pass through immigration control
Anyone with a valid USA visa does not need transit visa for UK and most European flights . I am 100 percent sure This can only work if the transit is less than 3 hours but these flight do have long stay when connecting and most agency won't want to book you asking for transist visa if the duration for connecting flight is more. |

sunshineluv5: thanks bro I just noticed noticed GRE has a quantitative section which has to do with maths n this brought serious fear down my spine bcuz I have never been good in mathematics. Could my ielts alone earn me a full scholarship or partial scholarship in a school that accept the test? It is well. Only ielts can't grant you that unless you want $1000 as scholarship. |

ekiee: Hello people, I got f1 visa approval today, and I really need to post my transcript. To people yet to go for interview, just believe in yourself, not with what you see people do and blue sheets flashing around. It's just a conversation, not a project topic to defend. Vo: good morning Me: morning Vo: ur study plans? Me: I plan to pursue my masters degree in telecommunication. And networking at florida international university, miami florida Vo: why this course Me: well, telecommunication and networking is a course that I've have great interest since my childhood, my grand mum often called it the sorcery from the western world, and learning the principles of wireless communication has been of huge interest, although I feel compelled now more than ever, with the introduction of the IOT(Internet of things), this seams to be a new wave that would have much applications across most industries and sectors, and FIU is currently the first university in the US to take IOT for undergraduate studies Vo: did you write standardised test Me: no, it was waved for applicants with GPA above 3.0 and with a convincing letter of intent. VO: how many schools did you apply to Me: well for full application, I applied only to FIU, but I applied to MNSU Minnesota, but my decision from FIU came through, before I could send my transcript to MNSU VO: when did you graduate from university, Me: may 2016 Vo: what have you been doing after nysc, Me: currently I'm on my NYSC atm, to pass out December 24th (batch B stream 2) Vo: what's your plans upon graduation Me: to start up an IOT company here in Nigeria, I believe this would be a new wave, that would be high yielding Vo: who would be sponsoring your trip Me: my uncle Vo: what does he do Me: he is the co owner and CEO of XXXX, based in Houston texas Vo: your visa is approved, and gave me white paper

Messibliss207: Hello fam. You guys are the bomb. My visa was approved this morning 13th... Lagos. I got into Lagos yesterday and lodged at New World hotel in Obalande. It's less than 10 minutes to the embassy. I was interviewed by the black woman in window 4. She was sharing blue paper like biscuit. She denied my friend who I went with. Here's my transcript
VO: (smiling back at me) good morning ma'am
ME: good morning ma
VO: pass your passport and i20. Where are you going to in the US
ME: i'm going to Ball State University in Muncie Indiana
Vo: what's your major
Me: Computer Information Systems
VO: what's your highest degree
ME: BA English Language
VO: why the change to Computer Information System
ME: I caught a passion for IT while in the uni. And as the media director in school I had a lot to do with the computer. Also Nigeria is transferring her business processes from manual to automated so acquiring technical skills will make me remain relevant in the Nigerian business world. I hope to build business modules and softwares that will revolutionize the Nigerian business world. (she was nodding at this point so i continued) I hope to run projects with organisations like Andela that are promoting ICT to women in developing countries like Nigeria to close the gender gap between the male and females in the ICT field in Nigeria. This is because according to the Nigerian National Bureau of statistics, the ratio of male to female in the ict field in Nigeria is 3:1 so I hope to work with these organizations to run projects that will close this gender gap. (at this point she was smiling widely)
VO: how did you hear about Ball State University
ME: the first time I heard about ball state uni was at an education seminar in port Harcourt in 2015. (she nods in agreement like say she follow me go) Then my uncle also recommended it
Vo: (cuts in) how did your uncle hear about this school
Me: he stays in Indiana though in forte Wayne but he told me the school is one of the best in Indiana. (she nods) (I continued) I also carried out a research about the school and the community where ball state is situated
Vo: whos paying
Me: my uncle. He's a Medical Consultant and the CEO of
VO: (cuts in) oh the same person that recommended the school (I said yes and continued spilling my uncle's profile) why is he paying instead of your parents
Me: (smiling widely) he's actually paying back. My parents trained him in medical school so he decided to train me as a way of giving back
Vo: (smiling and nodding) what area will you specialize in
Me: information security system. This is because of the high rate of cyber crime in Nigeria. Actually someone close to me lost a huge sum to cyber crime recently.
Vo: what are some of the courses you will be doing Me: business application development, Info security system ,computer networking for business, database management system.
Vo: do you do c++ or is not part of it Me: c++ is for computer science major. The difference is while computer science major is concerned with technology and it's improvement, computer Information systems is concerned with technology as a strategic tool that promotes business.
Vo: I can see you're already working in the IT field, did you get some certifications?
Me: yes ma'am. I did a short course on Data and statistical Analysis and also on computer networking, Cisco networking to be precise She kindly puts my passport in the basket and brought out the white paper (she kept it far away and was busy giving people the blue paper).
Na so I take Waka today. Thanks to @drocks and @Jerrypeacelinks you guys are too much. Jerry may God give you an approval moro. You're a really nice person. Thanks everyone... You guys made this happen. Lemme go to Balogun market and start my winter shopping. � All glory to God.. He's so faithful. When you do your part (preparation) God will do his (grace). Bless you all
