Well done. I really like your verbal. I'm not even sure if you need my help with sop and others

Your uni choice looks not bad too.

Hello everyone
I wrote GRE few days ago and I got 161q and 162v

How good is this scores for top schools for PhD computer science...

Cc admitwithschola

Your verbal is really strong for a Nigerian. Quant is decent, verbal is very strong. Overall, you have done well. Well done.

For top schools, these are probably decent scores - quant not so high for top schools, but you should still try, who knows, especially if you have exceptional something in other places. You should also try some middle and safety schools..

You can send me a message, and let's see what is possible.

He can only appeal to blockheads like you who are bereft of reasoning. What was his PhD thesis on? Where did he do his Masters? You are a big fool.

He's a third class graduate of Ambrose Alli University. He's a mediocre student.

Those with PhDs are Adeboye, Osinbajo, Kumuyi, Olukoya and not mediocres like Oyakhilome who got his PhD from an unaccredited backwater Bible college.

Correction - Pastor Osinbajo is not a PhD. Baba Kumuyi's PhD is honorary

TOLD YA!

Nigerians are wicked and selfish, probably doesn't want ppl to ask hw he/she got in, who knows someone might need your help to get into the school u were admitted to, E no good laidis oo

And this same person got in by asking questions, reading ppls transcript, Na wa fr una oo

Even me here have been shamed before, lol. It made me laugh. I asked one guywith naija OND or HND, not sure, how he was able to achieve his impressive feat of going for graduate studies in the US. Man, the guy responded to other questions and ignore my own. He blanked my question. LOL. I no believe am. That was the day I learnt something. If people say "we are helping each other and collaborating", it may not mean like that oo. You only know your own self, you don't know anyone else.

I was disappointed. No be me need the info. I wanted that info to see how I may help a friend. Someone else was trying to formulate a rather weak argument about "teaching how to fish" as a reason for not responding. I laughed again. If the bros shared his experience about how him take enter US university with him HND, won't me AND thousands other people - which include my friends - learn?

Man, I have resorted to not have headache because of other people behaviour. Just help those you can help. I commend the excellent work that some helpers have been doing here. And in my small small ways, I have been doing all I can to help too. I receive many emails from people and try to share experiences that I thought might help them.

Finally, that SOME people are playing games does not mean others should stop helping. On average, the spirit of this thread is wonderful, and posterity will remember all of us and smile.

It’s not by force to write visa transcript, even hide the school name. If you can’t write a detailed transcript, no need to post. Period

Lol - in Nigeria you don't give people full details about your success, or so they say, so that someone will not magically come and pour sand sand for your garri. Lol

I once gave a lady a list of 20 CVs to hire someone for an RA position. Na favour I do the lady oo. Then few days later, I asked her "so who did you employ from that list". She said, for now, it is personal...LOOOOOOL. Seriously? I wanted to fly. No be me give you CVs. Hahahahaha

Hi guys:

We are looking to hire students from Nigeria and broader Africa to prepare them for admissions into top PhD programs in ECONOMICS for 2021/2022.

If you know top students that meet the requirements stated here - http://baumtenpers.com/working-at-baum-tenpers/, please encourage them to apply. Our research group offers lots of generous packages and mentorship for the right candidates.

Thank you

Impressive.

Congratulations.

Hopefully, more and more teachers will rise to the task of asking thinking of strategies to educate our youth.

I'm proud of Mr Opeifa's achievement. It's great to hear about what he, and others helping our youth, are doing!

Ive been itching to reply this post since but nairaland no gree.

Yes, we have a track record of students we have successfully tutored and the likes.

But for client confidentiality, I won't be posting there details here (I don't think yoid want me to post ur details here if you are among also)

Please, WhatsApp 08132765285, let's take the conversation to a more private channel.

You can always come back and share your thoughts with nairaland family.

What do you think?

Confidentiality? Is it something illegal? If my scores are great and would encourage others, then it's GREAT to post it. So the point about not wanting to post details is so so.

If you're publicly advertising such nice scores, I think it's only natural to publicly defend the scores with evidence.

Muneer5:
Hello, please help.

I got into UTDallas for a PhD (full funding with TA) without taking GRE/TOEFL. And I was only able to apply to ONE school during the pandemic.

How am I supposed to prepare for the visa interview?

I'm really scared �
Thanks.

Man - you're one lucky dude 1 of 1, 100%. Well done sir.

If I may ask

1. Which course is this?
2. Did you have MSc in naija?
3. An idea of your BSc and MSc performance

You're under no obligation to answer - but it would be great to know.

Meanwhile, I speak breakthrough into your visa application. You're a chosen!

Evkunle:


Generally speaking, I personally recommend lots of online practice. Its not just to know the maths, you need to solve it within the stipulated time.

So after focusing on learning all the quant tips n tricks, you need to be able to apply then within the timeframe.

And then, there are the trick questions.

But I believe with good study materials, actual real length and time based practice, you can ace the exams.

And you can tell someone to tell someone also �

Your posts sound interesting. I am interested in your "guaranteed" GRE score of 325. To proceed, I have two questions

1. I would like to see the score sheets of at least 5 of your former students who scored 325 and above. I think that would be a more convincing evidence. I would also like to connect with these former students and see where they have gotten full scholarship

2. I would like to know the track record of your tutors, the people who teach these exams. Specifically, to know their scores on GRE and GMAT

3. I would like to be promised a full money refund if it turns out to be the same 140+/150+ situation.

If You sufficiently provide evidence 1 and 2, and agree to 3, then I will give you a call to discuss how we may partner with you, basically sending you 5 - 10 students at least, every year

Hello here
I took the GRE earlier today
314
Q 162 V 152

GPA 4.52 (3.70 /4) Mechanical Engineering
Please can anyone suggest schools where I have higher chance of securing full funding considering my profile.
Thanks

Good score - congrats.

Hmmm, about schools. I don't really know engineering. But I would suggest you get into the best place that your profile can take you.

Contact the Naija profs in engineering at Stanford, MIT, Michigan and I forget the other ones. Display your profile and candidly ask them if you have a chance at their schools/programs. I know of a 4.50ish guy who got into either MIT or Harvard. There is a Naija prof in that faculty.

Regardless of what these Naija profs say, in your shoes, I would still try out one or two top programs, 3 or 4 mid ranking programs, and like 5 low ranked programs in your engineering.

This is assuming you have up to 300-500 dollars to sink into these applications, and I am also assuming you have profs who will write top stellar letters for you, and that other parts of your profile are bam, perhaps even bammer than your GPA/GRE.

There is a nairaland boy here who got into Stanford. He is elect elect. You can look into his profile to get more idea.

All the best with your plans.

Soar19:


Does this really depend on existing foundation? This is not to argue. Just asking.....
I was one of the best at maths in both secondary schools I attended. I studied accounting and the best scores on my university transcript are maths and maybe stats courses. I took my GRE yesterday and failed woefully. Quants- 147, Verbal- 146 without essay.
I studied for 2 months.

If someone has around A1 maths, around A1 further-maths, this is what I meant by foundation - and this is an "on average" or "in general" statement. This same reason explains why the modal blasters of this GRE stuff are mainly the engineering guys or science guys in Nigeria. On average, they have stronger elementary math foundation.

Your university accounting math and stats courses were not rigorous enough - no math done at business and econs departments/faculties in Nigeria is rigorous, except actuarial science people, and these guys mostly take real math - sometimes at math departments. You will say I'm generalizing, but I am not.

Your scores fall into the range of an average Nigerian test taker. Our average in Nigeria is around your score....But I think you could bring it up if you work for a sustained period, maybe 4 months to 1 year of hard, intense work, because some things still need to develop somewhere. And, as someone above said, spend time to learn the tricks too.

And for any undergrad reading this thread, if you know you want to go US grad school later, then start prepping for GRE/GMAT from year 1, and even saving some money to take the test many many times, each time practicing hard, until you eventually nail it, hopefully. This is assuming these tests are still required because I am hearing schools are planning to cancel it. Such cancellation will have its own problems because it would likely become harder for international students to get a chance for full scholarships at these schools. GRE has been roughly a way for internationals to outperform americans and get considered.

Ikenna04:
Good day all,
i am a prospective undergraduate and i would like to know what schools will be able to give me funding. Below are my scores
SAT 1310 TOEFL 90 GPA 3.3
please if possible full funding schools.

Very good SAT score. Well done.

As per your main question, I don't have an answer. I'm a big supporter of studying in Nigeria, doing very well before going abroad for more studies.

But good luck with your search for generous undergrad scholarships!

Mickeywilliams:
For seasoned guys in the house. Do you think one month is enough to prepare and ace the GRE, on average.
I know this question does not have a definite answer as individual abilities differ.
Please answer from your perspective, this will give a rough idea. Thanks.

Depends on your existing foundation. I have found that GRE scores correlate decently with secondary school achievements.

So if you did extremely very well in secondary school and understood most things in maths and english, then 1 month "might" be enough to get a good score, i.e. quant >160, verbal >150. I have heard of some people who revised for 2 weeks and got better than these scores.

However, if this is not the case, then you may need many more months to prepare really very hard, to hopefully get a good score.

Speak to the guy above who got outstanding GRE scores and ask him for his tricks. All exams have tricks.

I wish you all the best

philip2014:
QUANT:169
Verbal:155
Writing 4.0

You're impressive.

What are your plans? Don't dare waste those scores!

Reach out to us when you begin your applications - info@baumtenpers.com. No one would see your GRE and won't want to support you if they can.

And the AIMS student here, make you you get top GRE scores, almost 100 percentile.

We have been looking for people of this caliber to place at places like Princeton, former AIMS student is a prof there.

So once your scores are bam, things can happen.

philip2014:
I just got my GRE score of 324, I have a cgpa of 3.86 (b.agric).
I need advice on universities to apply to for scholarship and ga.

Congrats. This is pretty very solid.

Be specific on your plans, maybe we can have one or two things to say.

Meanwhile, breakdown your scores.

Herbertstan:


BSc Physics
MSc Mathematical Science #ongoing (Mathematical Physics option)

I think if you coordinate well, you can go to very top schools in the US, not just any school. There is a boy here who got into Stanford with your same GPA, but engineering. His GRE was very/excellent too and comments about his score led to a long debate. He hasn't even done MSc - US don;t need MSc for the most part.

I strongly believe your profile has a big potential for top places, or at least places just below the top.

Come back to these threads when you have your GRE scores ready. In the mean time, try to get people who will write you really excellent letters of recommendation. This was what I usually advised in my past posts. Letters are extremely important for PhD

Do you have research experience and possibly research papers beyond BS/MS projects?

calculator123:


Yes, but also consider taking the subject test too. It could give you an edge.

I agree with this, if you have the resources.

But it's not just taking sha, these tests have to be blasted, both general and subject.

Herbertstan:
Good day everyone, pls I need your advice, I'd be wrapping up my MS in physics soon, I want to apply for PhD in the USA, and I'm planning on taking the GRE general test, but I also found out that there's a physics GRE test and some graduate programs in physics would require one to take it, my question is this, will taking the GRE general test and TOEFL be sufficient enough for me to get into some of these programs?

All things are necessary in admissions. Nothing is sufficient.

That said, many programs require subject test, but there are some that only require general. Perhaps getting a long list of schools split into 'need and not need' subject test could help.

In case you also have a sound BS and MS GPA, strong research experience, great letters from your professors and maybe some working papers or publications, you will be at an advantage if your GRE scores turn out well too.

Friedpotato:
What's the cheapest way to ship a 3.3lb package (10"1 tablet) from US to Nigeria?

Depends on where you're based. There are pockets of naija shipping companies spread across the US. If you can get to one of them, price may be very favorable.
