Congrats sir!

Juntod, thanks for the Toefl center, and your comment on those looking to be spoon-fed.

Graviton, orientation starts on 18th, but I want to spend a few days in NY first.

Calmdown, that is my flight as well!! How do we hook up now? BBM or whatsapp?

Mjseun:

Okay friend thank you. But I need to state at this point that my i20 came from my school stapled. Should I remove the pin or just go with it like that? Why I'm asking all these questions is that I saw in the instruction after booking my appointment that one should not come into the interview premises with any sharp metallic stuffs.

Thanks for your response.

you may leave it since it came from the school like that.

Graviton2:

I know say na your plan be this!

LOL! No vex oo

juntod:

I will be very blunt with you. If you like hate me. The fact that this forum is set out to help doesn't mean you come here and ask questions without doing your own research. Your concern borders on virtually every process of WES which clearly indicates that you have not even bothered to do any research on your own. You even went as far as asking about their charges? Go and visit www.wes.org you will find everything you need there. If you find any confusing area, feel free to come back and ask. So many people won't survive foreign education system if we continue to spoon feed here.

+1 for you! This post deserves an Oscar. I mean, it's annoying; people just come here without prior findings. Anyways, thanks for helping him/her with their website address.

You have a place to chill in NY?

jaadx:
thanks. This my first interview and i dont wanna give room for denial dat y i want everythin intact

You're welcome. Every case is different. I've advised you. Again explain to the Visa Officer and you will be fine. But if you can't explain properly because of fear, you can opt out. Where are you heading to?

Juntod, ive said it countless times about spoonfeeding, thats why they cant defend theirselves during interview. Too lazy to use google.

Amefrica: LOL! No vex oo

*Picks up a big stick*

You dey make fun of me abi? Wait for me!

What some people don't know is once they leave their home country, they're already on their own.
"Only the strong survive according to Wyclef" Even Americans leave their country too for elsewhere.

Fadekemi am still with you. Just read up interview transcript

No document was asked, unexpected questions... I just thank God, I was denied by the guy beside him June ending, the same guy was busy denying today, he did not approve anybody till I left nd the guy beside him on the left was busy doing Independence Day for people by approving anyhow.. The same question he asked me, he used in destabilizing me, he asked one lady today, I just laff for my mind, this one no go get visa, immediately he asked the girl got distabilized! Pls nd pls if you did not write SAT or gre! Nd you got interviewed by the bald guy, if he asks you how many school gave you admission? After you must have told him, he would bring out a school that he's sure they use SAT, how did you get admission without SAT nd that's the end.. So if you are in that position, just tell him lower schools than your school or tell him the school only uses sat for scholarship purpose ! It's not a compulsory document! With that you have killed him.. God that has done mine would not leave those going to get theirs soon too! Above all pray nd fast if possi le because my courage was not 100%.. It was just God!

I heard your convo with the VO cos I was sitting right behind you...
