amanze15: Please house... Is the above a good score for GRE? I have a mindset that anything less than 150 is unacceptable? How true is that? Cc walspring siriddy |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 6 by Nobody: 9:25pm On Oct 25, 2014 |
adikatobi: There are alotta schools that will accept you. Just search on Google. Most schools consider your GRE tho |

Denvan, I wanted to reply you earlier today but I have been a little busy. The passport can be procured in ikoyi or alausa at the immigration offices situated there. In contrast, I got mine at osogbo since I shuttle between lagos and osun state; moreover, I heard it is easier to process the document outside lagos. It cost me 25k because I used the services of an agent there. I believe it might be less expensive without an intermediary, however this route might take a longer time. I was able to get mine the same day. My advice is for you to budget thirty thousand naira for it. To get expedient responses here next time, please try and ask specific questions here and show the house that you have done some search next time. Generic questions portend that you did not use the search engines at all, thereby portraying as being indolent. |

sabiguy: He only asked a question..People should learn how to be courteous when replying questions asked..I havent seen how the question he is asked is annoying.If you dont know,kindly stay away..No person should come here and be claiming to be the wisest..Shey you no ask questions when you got yours?Abi did you just wake up and got your passport?..Please lets practice a little bit of courtesy when answering questions..

Hello guru in the house, I just heard that there is no admission in the united states cos of ebola how true is this? |

Based on my circumscribed experience about the GRE, I think 150 is touted as average but it may be misleading since the scores are ranked using percentiles. It would be better to say that your GRE scores are as good as your school requirements. If you want to get accepted into computer science program of Arizona SU, a quant score of 155 is considered low since average score for accepted candidate is 159. In addition, your score in the exam depends on your intended score of study. An aspiring engineering student would aim for a higher quant score, and a history major student would want to ace his verbal. Finally, the GRE is used for admission consideration as well as funding. So the best is to aim for a 160 in both section and prepare well for the test. sabiguy: |

Chukwumahike: Why don't you just strike the school off your list? There are thousands of schools in the US. Additionally, you should see the pre-application inquiries you are making as a cogent tool to make informed choices and not one to stick stubbornly to what is glaringly not the best for you. |

amanze15: I'm also an alumnus of your alma mater and I know building GPA could be a herculean task. I know that's an euphemism. Some GRE tutors have postulated that- since the exam is a standardized test, writing it any number of times using the same material and/or study techniques will do little to change your result. Hence, my own advice is; since you can't do anything to change your CGPA, do something to your GRE. There is no harm in rewriting it, that's if you would change your study materials and techniques. But you might need to mail the score recipients of the first result to apprise them of the happenings. I hope you are aiming for Fall term and not Spring. 1 Like |

amanze15:Bros, don't feel bad about your GRE score and GPA. Some schools can still give you admission based on some other supporting conditions. I have friends who got admitted with both low GRE and GPA. Some even got GA when they got they got there but I will advice you to take TOEFL which is quite easier and apply to a minimum of six schools. I personally believe that the more schools you apply to, the more chances you're creating for yourself. You can apply to ten schools, no harm. 1 Like |

sirRiddy: Ok thanks for the details. GRE is based on what scale? I mean the total score. Is it 160/200 or what? |

Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 6 by repsin(m): 7:44am On Oct 26, 2014 |
sabiguy:That is when he has to step up his game and convinve the VO reasons for his low GPA. That's why it's called an interview. I have friends that got there visas with low GPA. |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 6 by Nobody: 8:15am On Oct 26, 2014 |
170 for both verbal and quant, 130 being the least you can score in either sections. Analytical Writing is scored over 6. sabiguy: |
