sirRiddy: What a horrible advice Gruber and Barrons for verbal huh?? If the person has a knack for high level words and dense sentence structure, they could help but for a newbie or an intermediate level vocab, theyre HORRIBLE choices. Grubers still has analogies (SERIOUSLY?). The sentence completions are SAT level difficulty. The new GRE places more emphasis on very difficult sentence structure and inane words. THE BEST VERBAL WORKOUT BOOK IS THE ORIGINAL GRE GUIDE BY ETS. Nothing else comes close. Kaplan for analytical writing yes. cram the introductions for the argumentative essays given by Kaplan, Worked for me oh and Barron is crap. If anyone intends to score over 160 in both sections avoid that book like plague. I really dont see a way an average student can get an ace score using that book. The math section lacks instruction that covers new areas of GRE math workout like Advanced Coordinate Geometry, Functions and Parabola, Probability is poor at best, no combinatorics which is the most difficult math section in the GRE. @ehimax |

Kpimp: Kpimp: Yes waec result is enough for you to apply to troy university and most schools in usa with your other supporting documents like SOA, test score, sponsorship letter or affidavit of support etc.. If some schools ask for your high school transcripts maybe there is a reason for that.. Although they do include it on their site as list of documents to mail or email to them but most applicants dont send it but send only waec and they make use of the waec as the transcript |

Random thought I've never seen an undergraduate here on nairaland gun for ivy league or at least top 20 Schools. Same goes for graduate students except for the very old members who rarely come here. Apart from that, not one. So far. Hmm. |

slimmy05: For exceptionally gifted undergraduate applicants . Ivy league schools maintain a need blind admission policy regardless of country of origin. For graduate students, funding is almost guaranteed. Top schools even know that financial aid is a top priority for grad students. The big question is being qualified to apply. |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 6 by Nobody: 12:44am On Oct 19, 2014 |
ebdib:I get you correctly. Not all are exceptionally gifted, I don't think its a bad idea applying to schools they can afford. Assistantship are in most cases competitive. A nairalander once applied to Stamford uni, despite his stellar GPA and GRE he still didn't get any assistantship. He finally got MIT though. |

ETS official guide is the standard guide for the exam, sorry I forgot mention that. It contains standard questions that are similar to the ones that will be encountered on test day. However, using ets solely for preparation will be impolitic for a GRE neophyte; no strategies,just answer explanations. Barron and Gruber may not have very daunting questions but they have helpful tips that will come in handy on test day. Conclusively, get the ets book but that does not obviate the need for barron and gruber. Wish you the best, and thanks ebdib for your contribution, sir. ebdib: 1 Like |

Walspring:#true talk @slimmy he knows about this, because he applied to the school. Some school's just have some requirements on their website that really sometimes don't apply to admission criterion, when an e-mail is sent to the admission officer or being called the story might be totally different... They might have: send the SAT and TOEFL scores to their mail box (using nipost or one of the courier services), not via e-mail.... But when an e-mail is sent to the admission officer (asking if scanned copies of document are accepted or otherwise), the story totally changes by saying the documents being scanned can be sent to the school via e-mail. So you see not all requirements placed on a website is to be used for admission requirements sometimes. Except the admission officer is contacted who has the final say in documents and concerning your admission. I'm sure you know all these. 1 Like |

stevecrun: The best schools have the largest endowment funds meaning they are willing to fund the most exceptional students more. It's a matter of being academically 'stuffed' enough to compete with the best for few places. 1 Like |

ebdib:So? What if we don't have funds ehn, would you pay for us? or is it a crime to transfer to a CC when you have insufficient funds? Applying to a low standard school, dosent mean you wouldn't go to an high standard school someday, some people are not just all about the certificate, its all about what you learn and what you can get from the school (because its somewhat cheaper). I might be in a CC moving from one major to the other, expanding my knowledge and be good in lots of fields, than a person who went to a university, just with one degree major. Bros if you didn't apply or haven't procured admission to MIT, STANFORD, HARVARD or any of the ivy league schools, why criticize others, well we all know your really good and you aced the GRE which is good and I personally wanna be like you, but instead of criticizing, rather boost up our morale, advising us (like even we go to a college we can still go to a good university something like that).

coobboy: Mr man Why are you being so defensive? Did I try to force ivy league down your throat? Im just encouraging students who are brilliant, to try ivy league schools regardless of financial status. I didn't criticize people who didn't attend ivy league schools. I'm criticizing people who choose crappy schools and trust me there are lots of crappy schools willing to collect money for degrees that ain't worth sh*t. To each his own. Your tone is belligerent and uncalled for btw. Good day. |
