Thanks, are you trying to say, i can prepare for PTE wothin 2days?
It depends on your current level of English proficiency. Have you always been good at english exams? If yes, then you can. Just read up on describing graphs and maps and brush up on your essay writing and you are good to go. if not, maybe you need to put in like 3 hours a day for one week before you write it. You can check out sample tests and other people's stories.

Good to hear heaps of people are getting their grants. I was quite active around this time last year. I remember our grant arrived on the 17 of january last year and arrive Oz 14th Fed.

However, that is not why i am writing. I read some posts about using panadol, and men crying due to how hard they work here.

So quickly want to advice on managing your expectations.

You have 2 options upon arrival, namely; working hard or working smart.

Working hard is when you have no tickets nor certification and you want to work. You will most likely get hard work. Bearing in mind that every employment will request your visa b4 offering you any job, secondly, because of studies you might be unable to work normal hours, so that leaves you with shift jobs to survive. 6am - 2pm shift, 4pm - midnight, 10pm to sunrise and so on.

However, it becomes easier to get good paying jobs, bordering around $30 to 40 an hour if you obtain a forklift license(cost 400AUD) or HR or MR truck lincence( 1000plus AUD), Australia is a logistics country, anything logistics and warehouse sells. We import almost everything, so they have to be stored, moved and distributed. Anywhere along that supply chain has good money and constant work.

Disability certificate(1200AUD duration one month), try and obtain a disability certificate as soon as you arrive, being a welfare based country, millions of people living with disability has to be catered for by law.
You can earn btw 27 to 30 on weekdays, double that on weekends and maybe night shifts. It is the easiest job, so far you can stand the sight of cerebral palsy girl, or a boy with fown sydrome. Ofcourse, the job will include some manual handling.
Catch is that you most likely will need an Australian drivers license to get into the door. In some cases the license alone gets you in, even without the cert course.

Or get and RIW ticket, work railway and get paid 50/hr.

Now, your question is, what do i do in the interim, well, go get a job at nandos, macca's or any fastfood while you work on obtaining any of those. If you are going to sydney, apply to UNrefugees as face2face fundraisers, they always look for new comers, cos old timers will do the job. Atleast you will fetch upkeep and rent till you are able to sort yourself.

What am trying to pass across is simple, no relocation is easy, even if it is from Lagos to Kano, or from dopemu to shagamu it is always tedious in the begining.

Plan ahead, research, stay positive, avoid fines
please where can someone get a disability certificate for a month because all the one have bn checking is more than a month. Please help with details. Thanks

For someone with a Bachelor degree in geology. how possible is it for that person to get admitted into a post graduate degree or any diploma programme in the I.T sector.

Will the success rate be fair if one should apply coming from a Non-IT background?

I studied geology too. But I’m going for environmental science �, expect you have years of experience in the said field. But let’s hear from others.

hmmm, I had to do some reading from the early pages. I read stuffs like ; one could change course once he arrives there. I am kinda confused.

Why environmental science tho? is that what you truly want ?

Yes. Getting into geology in Australia is quite hard, you must have geology experience and it’s tasmania that does pure geology Adelaide does petroleum geology. If you can get in fine then later you switch.

oh if I can secure a 2yrd diploma programme in Network Engineering, that would just be perfect.

I just fear getting bounced at the embassy

VISA GRANTED(Hubby, Child and I): 6th feb 2018. Thank you Jesus! God bless those behind this enlightening and informative forum, you are doing an amazing Job here. Thank you for helping me even without knowing it. I barely pass a day without passing over here to lift my spirit with those who got their Grant earlier. The prayers, the jokes(I can never forget the story of someone here who wrote about fasting until almost had ulcer, that day i laughed and also cried because that was my case), the encouragement here is massive, all these gave me the strength to hold on.... 8months of waiting no be beans my bros and Sis's but finally the God who fetches water with a basket to disgrace the bucket showed himself. To him i give all the glory. To all Visa hopefuls, please hang in there and pray for God will surely answer.

Transit visa for what. You don't need that.... For connecting flight .if your stopover is more than 8 hours.there is a lounge at the airport or more or less provision will be made for you to sleep and meal ticket will be giving to you. If you choose not not to get transit visa...
