I need the GRE on Friday and the unofficial score was 153Q 154V, planning to take TOEFL test later in the month.
Pls I need a guide on a rough calculation of my cgpa to over 4 . I have been searching through previous thread where similar calculation was posted but it has been futile.Pls any help would be appreciated.
My CGPA is 4.13/5

So many red flags
It was just God's favour, I prayed and I got it

Good day house, I have gotten 120 from South Dakota State University,Ms in Mechanical Engineering. I have been going through persons experience here and it has been great and uplifting. I have been preparing for visa interview of late but the answers i am having for possible questions i really need aid in scrutinizing my response. For instance,
If VO says how did you hear about SDSU: Can i say i searched for universities that offers CFD modules in mechanical engineering using google search engine.
if VO ask why USA and not any other country: Can i say because USA employs advance technology in teaching,uses most recent practical techniques which will give me an edge when i return to Nigeria and a certification from the USA is world recognized.
If VO ask whats the relevance of your area in Nigeria: Can i say it is an advance modelling tool,it is used by oil and gas industries in nigeria to monitor flows and predict behavior of systems,used by manufacturing companies in nigeria to monitor system performance,troubleshooting and for optimization purposes.

Please house assist me if you have other ideas. The issue with the home tie stuff,how do i go about it? Thanks in advance i appreciate any response or advice.

Bros..your answers are not bad at all..just pray for God's favour.concerning home tie..who is your sponsor and what's your marital status?..I am going to south daskota too but yet to receive my i-20.

I think you should work on talking about a research currently going on in that dept that you are interested in. How the research would be of benefit to your career.

Great, congrats. Your spirit of withstanding pressure got you through.

In the room, your chances of getting the visa was placed 50-50 so the VO stretched you all the way and finally approved your application which is very fantastic.

The secret to visa interview is just about how the CO feels about you within a few seconds of talking to you. Some VOs make decisions by looking into the computer, others do so by listening to what you say and as well as both.

Congrats once more.

adewale1990:
I am trying to cancel a visa application but got this warning. "If you cancel this appointment, then you will have exceeded the limit of appointments canceled, and will not be able to schedule another appointment until another MRV fee has been paid." Can anyone pls explain this? thanks.

it means you will have to pay for another visa fee.. Is like you have cancelled it before
