Do you have the email that reflects your time and date for the interview? if yes, then you are good to go. However, you could still try the stuff out, but you don't need to do the online update once you have the email, in fact the lower section of the email informs you to print and bring that along for your interview.
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part2 by GboyegaD(m): 5:33am On Dec 21, 2011
Imperiouxx,

May God go before you this day and may He grant you the inner courage you need to excel in your interview.

I look forward to reading your success story.

Yea, I was denied by the lady in window 7 for the reason no one could say but I guess not a better luck this time. The down fall of a man isn't the end of his life. Thanks all. Posting the exp soon.

This is not a palatable news but all I can say to you is that you should keep your hope alive. Also I strongly advice you share your interview experience so that people here can both learn and make comments.

Have you applied there previously?

Any prospective graduate student that writes and gets a good GRE score has increased their chance of success. Even if it is waived for you, go ahead and write it. Why?

1) It costs about 40K naira. This shows that you have extra money.
2) Getting good scores in the exam proves that you are, at least 60%, a genuine student.

By the way, GRE was also waived for me. Why did you remove your interview post?

Why would I removed what I have already posted completely? It's antispam, I was blocked too. Check my profile, you will still see it there. I know gre might increase chance but it was at the dead minute I started thinking otherwise. You my Oct/Nov post. I can't say it's the gre really but just unlucky.
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part2 by kaycome: 5:34pm On Dec 21, 2011
@ imperiouxx sorry to hear that well from your interview, i think the main reason why she refuse you could be traceable to the GRE exam that you did not have. You spoke brilliantly trying to convince her but it is just unfortunately. Please dont give up ,
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part2 by kaycome: 5:41pm On Dec 21, 2011
I want to ask anyone that have register for GRE exam online before if it is still possible to register online using credit card cos i check their site and i saw there that Nigerian are exempt from the online registration. I will prefer to register online cos it cost just $190(30k) compare with some1 registering with the prometric center. i need more light on it as i will to ask a friend from USA to do that for me as soon as possible. Thanks

imperious i am so sorry, i believe in ur judgement , i believed u know why u were denied. Just try and make amends and try again. If u can schedule ur appointment to be interviewed in lagos why not give a try. I visited this thread 2day to know hw ur interview went, anyway God knows why, i believe God has a purpose 4 everything.
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part2 by pido101: 6:01pm On Dec 21, 2011
Hello house, i have read this thread 4 weeks now, and i have really benefited from ur contributions, i av an issue wt changing the address on my sevis fee receipt to a nigerian address, as i already stated stated that i dnt av any relations in the ds-160 form. Can any 1 gv any advice n this regard.
Also on my I-20 form, written on it is 36months for the duration of my prog, I enrolled for an MBA in Bleep Uni and the full time is actually 12months(1yr), shld i be asked at the embassy, how long is your programme.how many months do i say, kindly gave advice n the questions above
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part2 by mydestiny2: 6:41pm On Dec 21, 2011
@imperioux,
it pained me so much for your denial.well i believe, God wil crown ur effort with success nxt tym.
however, apart frm ur GRE score, i think d last question led to ur denial

VO: What do u want to do with d course
imperioux: i will be coming back to my work because i'm on study leave,

vry, vry wrong, she was nt asking u whether u would be coming back or not. i think the remaining answers are okay for dat question.

dont quit!!!!!!!!!!!
