What u want have been dealt with in the past. Go to old threads and pages and enrich yourself. Your problem is you talk about B.Sc and MSc at the same time. Which one do you want? which course?

technolee:

@bigwig10, please, you are always dragging this thread backward with your questions. I will suggest that you take time to research first before dishing out questions. I didn't know about NL before pursuing a graduate study in the US and I gathered more than enough via google.
We need other solid questions to learn from because, you have answers to yours in previous pages.

My thoughts exactly. He is pushing all at once...he can do that by going to old threads and pages.

Has anything been said about Med. School admittance (foreign).. If not, then I hope I ont pull the thread backwards by asking here..Are all those exams also required or just the Mcat (US & Can.)?

Happy to know there was somthin like this thread..

@John 1305, it is not possible to gain direct admission to medical school in the us. You need to decide if you want to get a masters first, do a post-baccalaureate pre-med program or get your prerequisites from a community college because you need at least one year of pre-med courses before you can apply for admission. For some Canadian medical schools, you can apply directly from Naija. According to the stories i have heard, the chance of getting accepted is slim but "possible". Anywayz to answer ur other question about the exams to write, the route you pick (from d options above) will determine the exams you'll write. Good luck.

@ferdimako

I really appreciate your patience with bigwig10. Guys like him shouldn't go to USA, honestly.

Thanks so Much Virgin Ice's. i appreciate.
i tap into your testimony. mine will be a success too and i will surely come back here to post my Success Interview.

I was scheduled for the 8a.m interview on Sunday (yesterday) and got to the embassy around 7:05am cos it was a 15 minutes walking distance from my crib, behold I was the first to get there. Security check started at 7:30am before I entered the waiting room. After finger prints were taken I was asked to wait till I'll be called upon for the interview. I began muttering "Thou O Lord shall arise and have mercy upon me for the time to favor me, Yeah the set time has come". After like 10 minutes, I was the first to be called for the interview on counter No. 2.

V.O: Good Morning
Me: Good Morning
V.O: why are you going to the US?
Me: For my PhD Studies
V.O: where?
Me: Told him
V.O: wow!...that's my state
Me: Really?
V.O: Yeah, it's a very good school, you'll enjoy the soccer...blah blah blah
V.O: So, who's gonna pay for your studies?
Me: I'm on a full scholarship
V.O: Really?
Me: Yeah,(so I gave him my offer letter from the department)...he read it
V.O: You mean the university gave you this? (Guess he was surprised at the enormousness of the assistantship)
Me: Yeah
V.O: Can I have your college transcripts?
Me: Sure, here they are....first gave him my BSc transcript, then he later asked for my MS transcript
(He was typing something which I cared less about)
V.O: Are you gonna enroll for any language program
Me: Nope, English is the official language in my country Nigeria and I have passed the English language requirement
V.O: Okay
V.O: Have you ever travelled to Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen etc (He asked because I'm presently in a Gulf country)
Me: Nah, Nah, Nah
V.O: Okay, this is your first time of going to the US?
Me: Yeah
V.O: Okay, I will approve your visa and it will be ready in 3 days, go to the back over there and pay for the delivery at the FedEx stand. The cost is an equivalent of 2,700 Naira.
Me: 3 days?
V.O: Yeah, 3 days
Me: Thank you
I was just singing in my heart as I left the Embassy with joy in my soul because now I know that DREAMS COME TRUE!!!
