here is tips for sleeping in the airport....lol.........http://www.sleepinginairports.net/tips.htm

@ free WiFi for 30minutes @Mekurrex. Just enter jfk with ur iPhone 6, techno tab, Asus lapping, and Xperia x. Total number of devices=4, total number of browsing hours=4x30=2hrs of free super speed WiFi. Thank me later.

Mekurexx:
Guys I booked to fly to JFk arriving at night, my connecting flight is the next day (6:30am). Can I get a cheap hotel close to JFk? Cuz I dont want to go far from the airport then miss my flight...

U can enjoy JFK with their good wifi network

sirRiddy:
Lol gunther6
bobbycashville please do not spread false information.
3.6 may not be high enough for top 25 programs but it is
more then 3.0
I had 3.6 and got into a very good PhD program.

Wow..

When you converted?

What did you have over 4?

Mekurexx:
All things being equal if there are no delays, the gap is almost 10hrs. I could use the airport if I can get food and maybe there is wifi.

They have a good eatry towards the exit.

Check www.trivago.com. In the search menu put in JFK. On the right hand side you can adjust the price to the amount you are comfortable paying (you can see as low as $46). It also shows you the distance to the airport. Have fun.


Please guys, I will be more than happy to connect with anyone living in Denver. Thanks.

Okay. I used foreign credential service of America (FCSA) and my 4.25 came out as 3.29. I guess the cheaper the evaluation company, the less tendency for your result to increase the more. I used FCSA cos it was just $140 and they don't require official transcript so I just scanned and sent to them. I regretted it tho and next time I'll use WES for PhD application.

Sorry, Please why do you regret it?

Bros u harsh o.. Anyway sha na true , I remember on one flight of mine from nigeria to turkey bros dem serve meal wey no just plenty u know how oyinbo dey chop for small portions na... Na so I order for some wrong things. I chop chicken and white rice, the rice no get taste. Dem come gimme sometin like apricot bros e bitter die. Na so I request for white wine I mix am with red wine nobody tell me say my head no correct anyway the koko is just know ur limit.

This is one reason why I love taking Emirate. They always have extras in the kitchen, when I need anything extra I just go to the kitchen to get whatever I want including fruits and drinks. At time I will just go and sit at back for that their stair case wey go premium economy. Kitchen no far from there. So people no go see me dey parade d kitchen upandan

LagosNIV:


Just out of curiosity - why so important to find a school around New Jersey or Philadelphia?

Also, some other members have raised valid points - you are going to find it very hard to pay for schools if you can't even pay for entrance exams. Taking the GRE is beneficial in several ways as well - either to show proof that you are serious as a student during your interview or to help you secure scholarships...

Beautiful reply officer. It baffles me when people started asking for schools around one location or schools only in NY, NJ and PA. If not on grant or something similar, these are costly locations to look for affordable schools.

gunther6:

Oga keep quiet and stick with your I did , bleep also it is okay to shut up and nod along when you don't know rather than giving misleading advice. Christian129 your 3.6 is way more than 3.0 on a 4.0 scale, I'll say like a 3.2 ... Write standardized exam and chose your schools carefully

You are right. My 3.68/5 was converted to 3.29/4. Christian129 cgpa is way above 3.0/4

Tods:


Really, with which evaluation company, cos that result was totally different from mine.

Did you use wes or ece?

DareFadi:


proper clown ..........although reading this kind language gave me a headache

Lool.
Na warriboy dey run the show

Althought those with high cgpa on 5.00 scale usually experience large cut. Probably because all units are converted to 2 credit hours. But try reevaluate it. Many schools will specifically tell you they want only wes. Few others will ask only ece.

This is NYC and a hotel close to the airport for that matter. What's do you consider cheap?

If I had used WES or any other sensible evaluation company my result would have been almost 3.40 or more.

USB and unlimited wifi is one of the reason y I will always love Emirate. I only have to pay $1 for unlimited Internet up in the air.
