TOEFL won't let me be great. I barely sleep when I think of it. And when those ETS B*****ds don't reply emails...wow..it worsens the experience even more. So I envy you.
Scholar is GRE paper route available in Naija ? Am asking because am thinking the V score might be better with paper route as a result of no typing. Some people like me are not proficient with typing on computers and that might cos some distratctions.

I dont mind waiting a month b4 seeing my result.

Paper route is 40mins for 2 Q-sections and 35mins for each V-sections. The Q section has 25 questions each as against 20 of the Computer route. Same goes for the V. I don't think there is an experimental section for the paper route but I could be wrong. HappyDay would know better.

Also, Paper route takes about 2 weeks or so for the results to come out. The intervening period between those weeks will be nerve-wracking compared to the Computer route that gives you an instant result. So pick your poison.


Lol @ bolded. You're right, all the way. No experimental section, and it's always in the VVQQ order. If you're working on a deadline, those two weeks could seem like two years.

Yes it is available but for a limited period over one year when compared to the computer route that could have as many as 90 dates in one calendar year. So if you are considering it you need to check the few available dates quickly and see which works for you. I think they have 3-5 dates in a whole year. I could be wrong. This is a surmisal.

Sorry for the late reply. SirRiddy and OGreene have given you the right answers. Just go to the website, have a list of the courses you took in school and the grades you scored.

Input everything in the WES calculator and your CGPA will be converted to a 4.0 scale.

Tbh with you, I'm still very much indecisive. I'm looking at University of Missouri, State University of New York, Binghamton and two other higher ranked schools (I'm yet to decide). What about you?

Searching for school is part of research,You might as well start research before Grad school. (If you find a suitable school, let me know grin grin grin) I am sure there are good schools that would accept the GRE score. 314 no be beans.
