Its all about preparing and praying. Once denied doesnt mean door is closed but yours will not be that case

@Marshadolz, Sorry for the denial. I pray you get it the 2nd time in jesus name. Have faith bro.

I suspect your SAT score. If you don't mind what was your SAT score? and did you do well in it?

Because it's not all about taking standarlized test, it's also about doing pretty well in the exams.

Amen brother,thanks...I got a score of 1530 in total,I heard the man who interviewed me hardly gives out visa,an Asian man

marshaldollz: Amen brother,thanks...I got a score of 1530 in total,I heard the man who interviewed me hardly gives out visa,an Asian man

Wow!!!! You did averagely well. Dts pretty cool. Almost the same score with mine.

I don't think it was the SAT score becos your score is good. It wasn't just your lucky day.

Prepare well for your next interview, take time to read the previous threads and learn from student's success stories, and I'm pretty sure you shall get it this time. Don't be discouraged bro. Cheers

I don't think it was the SAT score becos your score is good. Many people even get their student visa with scores lower than yours. It wasn't just your lucky day. It's just God's favour we all need..

I will,thanks a lot for your support bro...will keep everyone posted

kofsy:
Ok! Thanks... Is there a way I can reach you? I should have sent you a PM but I no longer have access to the email I used in opening this account, hence I can't receive/send PM.

I just got you the Barron 19th edition from the bookstore however, they don't have Grubbers. I will try to see if I can get it. As to getting it, I go to church around Surulere and I will be working on the Island so it depends on which one is okay by you.

OjaP:

Will pm you asap.

OK no problems.

@smithjanetstore... how far now?. Did you get my mail(s)?

I got there at 5.30am for my 7.30am interview, lol.
Black American lady Interviewed me at about 8:30am. I tried to greet and smile but was too tired, didn't bother.
VO: pass me your docs
VO: why did you choose pittsburg state uni?
ME: its accredited by the AACSB and.....
VO: (cut me short) that's same with all business schools.
ME: (I just continued talking sha, cause I didn't want all I had planned to say to leave my head). Accreditation by that board is the highest standard of achievement for business schools, and as a graduate student I'd be open to research opportunities. Asides that the degree plan of psu consists of other fundamental components of ther programs like finance, HOUR, Internal auditing and these jobs are usually given to foreign professionals to handle for us in Nigeria(stole this line from mamacita)
VO: where did you do your undergrad study
Me: Uniabuja
VO: what have you been doing since then?
ME: did my nysc, got a certificate in mgt from NIM and joined the family business as a business analyst
VO: what's the business about?
ME: we supply, repair and do maintenance of computer systems for large companies.
VO: did you apply to any other school
Me: Yes, Portland State Uni and...(she cut me short again)
VO: so why did you pick Pitts state over Portland
ME: said same answer as b4 about degree plan of Pittstate
VO: so what do you plan to do with this degree
ME: I intend to grow the family business and get a top management position in a Nigerian bla bla
VO: who is sponsoring you?
Me: my sister
VO: How many children in your family?
ME: 5
VO: what position are you?
ME: Last child( I'm not last, I'm 4th. Just said to make my case sweeter)
VO: did you do any tests?
ME: Yes, GMat and Toefl
VO: oh, that's great.
ME: (was about to bring out test score paper) she said don't bother.
VO: so I'm approving your visa....bla bla bla
ME: I said thank you like 4 times, lol
VO: she just kept smiling
I sha hurriedly left b4 she'd change her mind...
That's it o, not a single documents was asked from me.
The fasting and prayers paid off. Follow God o.lol

Are you serious? OMG! Thanks so much... Awwwwwww! I'm touched, I can't believe someone I don't know so well can do this within such a short notice... May God richly bless you!
I actually stay on the mainland! Don't worry, I can come to anywhere within Lagos to get it. I still wish there was a more private medium to talk and get some details. Will find a way around it, and will sure let you know ASAP. As regards getting 'G
rubbers', try get it if you can, but don't stress yourself or go out of your way to get it. I can make do with the Barron's, only that I started my study with Grubbers and I'm kinda addicted to it's mode of teaching/explanation.

Thanks once again, Gboyega! I'm grateful.

HOW MANY DAYS FASTING AND PRAYER MAKE I START MINE AS FROM NOW OOOO

ivory23456:

Thank God. It is just one of those things. You don't know how God has raised so much help for me that I now know that whenever you are opportuned to help, do it as God is the only one who rewards our kind gestures.

GboyegaD:

I will try to. I should be in Lagos before the end of the month.

Are you returning to Nigeria finally to work and settle or do you intend returning to the US?

Your interview generally went well. From your write-up, I can't seem to pick out any flaws in your answers. Or did you fail to impress on the man that you're a promising student? Or is it that the man is just not kind at giving visas?

ivory23456: Abeg don't mind my typos.

Congrats jare. It's not easy. I like the way you wriggled through your interview. That shows you're a sharp person.
