I think you should not expect them to charge you with CBN rate, cos dos banks too are black marketers. However der charges are not fixed it varies and it is largely influenced by the black market prices. Just imagine it as u trying to buy something online too...when I did mine, I was charged close to what d black market value @ dat time was

PhD position in Conservation Genomics at NDSU Conservation Genomics of the rare Californian endemic, Torrey Pine (Pinus torreyana)A PhD position in conservation genomics is available to study the evolution and conservation of the rare Californian endemic, Torrey Pine with Jill Hamilton at North Dakota State University, Fargo, North Dakota in collaboration with JessicaWright (USDA Forest Service, Research Geneticist, Pacific Southwest Research Station).Torrey pine (Pinus torreyana Parry) in one of the rarest pine species in the world, restricted to two discrete populations, a mainland grove of approximately 3400 trees just north of San Diego and an island population of approximately 2000 trees approximately 280 km up the coast on Santa Rosa Island, one of the Channel Islands. This project will evaluate the genomic structure of natural populations and take advantage of a wealth of phenotypic data available from a common garden experiment of mainland, island and F1 individuals planted at the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden. The combination of a long-term common garden experiment coincident with large-scale genomic surveys in natural populations will provides a valuable resource to direct in situ and ex situ conservation guidelines for Torrey pine conservation. In addition, there will be plenty of room to pursue particular questions of interest depending on the interest and experience of the candidate. This interdisciplinary research will combine field work at both the common garden site and within the natural populations in California, collaboration with the Institute of Forest Genetics in Placerville, CA and lab work in the Hamilton Lab at North Dakota State University.The ideal PhD student will be prepared to conduct field-based research as well as have some experience in molecular ecology/population genetics or bioinformatics for genomic data analyses.For more information on the Hamilton Lab please visit the lab website at:http://www.jillahamilton.com and more information on the Department of Biological Sciences at NDSU athttps://www.ndsu.edu/biology/. Fargo is the largest city in the northern Midwest and as 'Gateway to the West' is a vibrant, growing community that has access to numerous outdoor opportunities for all seasons. Interested students are encouraged to contact Dr. Hamilton (jill.hamilton@ndsu.edu). Please include a brief description of your research interests and a CV in your email. Funding options are available for both US students as well as international students.

Hi sirRiddy,
My younger brother graduated from a Federal University and for 2years now he hasn't secured a job. He decided to apply for a Postgraduate program here in Nigeria, though the application is still on-going.

Some days ago, he got in contact with one of his former classmate in the University, who advised him of coming to the U.S to work and school, instead of schooling in Nigeria.




Please is his friend idea a good one?
I don't know his friend but going to school and work in America is not a bad idea. If he has some money to spare and could write GRE, he could get some funding for a postgraduate degree. However, his GPA has to be at least 4.0 and he should study like 'weyrey' for the GRE. Bro, this whole thing dey sap money for this kain exchange rate, so he has to be serious about it.

NB :as an international student, he can only work in the US for 20 hours in a week

Most good schools require GPA of 3.0/4.0 for admission. That is like 3.0 out of 5.0
However, a third class graduate could get admission into some less competitive programs.
The higher the GPA, the better your chances. Funding is even more tricky.

I talked with one Chinese guy that got admitted into their PHD program. He got 317 in gre, 170 Q. Even his two friends that got admitted into the MSC cheng LSU in 2014 and 2015, one of them got 322, 170 Q and the other 315 168 Q. Am thinking that their cut off is above what they tell us on the website. This rejection hurts because LSU is my number one school.and they run research with top oil company

True.... from my "little " experience with these schools... their minimum GRE requirement is false. I believe it's just to keep the application pool large. In my opinion. Better luck with others.... Sup?? Is it that no1 has written GRE here in d last 2 months??

Thanks sirRiddy.

But his GPA isn't up to 4.00.

What should he do?
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by adelawry(m): 5:55pm On Apr 04, 2016
Minimum requirement does not guarantee admission. Most schools always highlight that fact. It always depends on the scores of other applicant. It's like saying Jamb cutoff mark is 200, so if you have 200 your admission is sure. Hell No!
