The school recognise nigeria as a english speaking country

U will take an accuplacer test, that lasts for more than 7hrs, this mah s students fail, goodluck tho. I have said my own

d4dotun:
But d sch didn't said I will take placement test, but doing the test is not a problem, but I need an excuse to give for not writing it

Tell them it wasnt required by your school, cos you WAEC result was enough proof that you are academically sound and fit for university level courses

Also check the courses you are to take in your freshman year, in case any question about the courses you will be taking, arises.

Read my previous post

d4dotun:
Hmmm. I guess is late to write d exam.

Bro its not late write TOEFL, or else you will be required to take ESL classes.
if you are transferring to a college, that does not recognize nigeria as a english speaking country, you will be required to write an english test, which costs money, and an accuplacer placement (critical reading, math, writing) test after passing the english test, to check, if you are fit for college level classes, this tests consists of upto 300 questions (you could spend more than 7hours writing this) you no go find am funny oh.... If you no pass the placement test (can be written twice) , you will have to take the Developmental courses which you will have to pay for, which is unnecessary IMO, its just to prepare you for college level classes (cash wasted) cos it wont add to your GPA.

But if your school recognizes nigeria as an English speaking country, you will be required to take the Accuplacer test.

It is good and necessary for you to write tests, ViSA is not the problem, you no wan go school, come dey see magic happen o, at least passing TOEFL would waive the ESL test, if you dont write and pass the SAT u can take the accuplacer..... If you pass the two, you dont have to waste extra cash, for either placement tests, and extra unnecessary classes

But if you get money to spare (waste), no do any test, you will get your visa, and see magic happen.

Just write the TOEFL or IELTS, my advice for you and others, wey no wan write test..... You dont wanna go through all those things enlisted.
TOEFL: 4 hrs 30mins
SAT: 3hrs 45mins

ESL: each session 5hrs
Accuplacer : 7hours or more.
Its your choice bro.

GboyegaD:
There could be further notice if the person is sincere. She could approach a friend and explain her situation or even a member of her religious group if she is active and humble. In all, I wish her the best.

For those who are quick to judge people because of their present situation, kindly desist from such act and instead, be kind to all and grateful to God.

Thank you for this sir, very inspiring, God bless you.

Nigga needs..

GboyegaD:
Stay clear out of troubles. List it on Craigslist and once you get someone willing to lease it, take the person to the apt manager and get the lease transferred.

Oh oh yes, thats what i will do, thanks for this boss God bless

Just manage the bills for the mean time. It's a phase.
