Hi guys. IELTS or TOEFL, which is easier? I need opinion from those who have experienced both exams. Thanks

I can only speak for TOEFL. Its not difficult but you need to be prepared to understand the nature of the questions as well as the appropriate answers required. I spent less than five days preparing for the TOEFL and made a 100+ score. I would add that writing the GRE before taking the TOEFL was a big plus since the TOEFL was like a subset of the GRE plus the speaking session.

If i may ask, where do you intend to study?

Additionally, North American schools have a preference for TOEFL, while European schools prefer IELTS.

MonsieurCoder:
Please I sent you a blank email about a week ago but no reply.

Drop your email and i would send you a copy directly.

iCool:
I haven't registered yet, not in so much of a hurry (working towards Summer 2017 admissions) and I am also watching the dollar cos I will be paying for the toefl also.

@safex101 and helenmi, the books are to large to be attached to my mail, I have tried severally. That was why I offered giving it in person. Its about 110mb for them.

There's a better option. Please upload the book to dropbox or google drive and share the link.

Hello guys, I see some great works here.
I need GRE and TOEFL materials to fine tune my readiness for the two tests. My mail address is cnejieji@gmail.com.

However, if you have study packs and you are resident in Lagos, I'll love to get them on my external hard drive if you don't mind.


Cheers

Please can someone give me the latest breakdown of the question types of both Verbal and Quantitative section.

Thanks

find it here: https://www.ets.org/gre/revised_general/about/content/

Next time, a simple google search would suffice.

kaima2015:
Thanks @ DanjaNinja....I strongly believe we Nigerians can make it.....with a combined score of 320 plus and an AWA score of 5.0, you are good to go for a PhD admission and full scholarship......for most Ivy League schools this is all they require (they usually place a very strong emphasis on the GRE) and a CGPA of at least 3.5/4.0

There is this wonderful book by Professor Julie Prosselt "Inside Graduate Admissions".....a most read for international students ...where she interviewed several Graduate Admission Commitees on the criteria they use to select students.....and do you know that Graduate Admission Committees place a preference for Minorities (Blacks, Africans etc) and American students?....they use the same standard for these two groups and use a higher standard for the Chinese and Indians (because some ""believe"" they cheat )

Thanks for this beautiful piece of information. God bless you for this.

helenmi:
Is Kaplan not the best textbook for GRE?

Hell No!!!! There is no single best book for the GRE. Each book has its strength and weaknesses. Combine them all for Maximum impact.

Barrons - For beginners and fundamental explanation.
Manhattan and Nova - For Large question bank.
Kaplan - Excellent for AWA only!!!

bjhaid:
Where can I get gre books in lag pls?

You would find them at Ikeja Under bridge by computer village. There is a bookseller around that area.

kaima2015:
My two cents.....to make high scores on the GRE (to ace it)....start with the Magoosh videos, watch all 280 plus videos to ""learn"" the tricks in the GRE...then move to the Nova Math Bible (if you dont have this you can use Manhattan) or Princeton and then use the Barron for the Verbal Section.....for the Analytical Section I also recommend an ebook authored by Mark Alan Stewart ""Answers to the Real Essay Questions of the GRE"".....the whole essays...it is a current book...and GRE will select an essay question from Essay Pool on their website......you can save time with this on test day....if you read the book from cover to cover

Good Luck

This is truly all that is required. Thanks for the contribution.

Question1:
Hello everyone.
Quick one please. I want to register for GRE and discovered that Mack IV Consult

They still register for #55,000, please is it genuine and I hope its not a scam?

You dont need the services of a third party to register for the GRE. With your naira visa card or paypal, you can do the registration yourself here: https://www.ets.org/gre/revised_general/register/computer/

Pls,add me to the toefl grp...samex_olaoni@yahoo.com

Done.

ponpon:
Upgrade to Manhattan, Nova and magoosh ma... + use Google to search or use the nairaland search box to search the education page you'll surely see them

Respect to you sir. Keep up the good work.

ToluNewman:
I suggest those of us who want to write gre should create a whatsapp group .

That would be a good idea but a whatsapp group prevents distribution of information that would benefit all. If i had created a whatsapp group within my friends, this thread would not come into existence and you would have missed out on a lot of insightful,important information found here. Hope i made some sense? At this moment, i think i would put an end to facebook gre and toefl add ups. I think 90% of the posts on this thread are for group additions. Where are the contributions?

Hi all, as you prepare to take the GRE and TOEFL, i pray you all achieve success and great scores. May God blessings be with you all.

p.s: Please share your thoughts, challenges, tips and experience. Dont be a silent member. Contribute so others can benefit from your experience. May God bless you all.

Gurus, please does anybody have a link to Premium Magoosh videos for TOEFL? I'm writing toefl soon and I'd really appreciate if I could get the magoosh videos. Thanks.

I dont necessarily have Premium magoosh videos for TOEFL but if you drop your facebook email, i would add you to a TOEFL facebook group. You will definitely find all the materials you need there.

Additionally, you can look it up on any torrent site. I guess you would find it there as well.

Story of my life, I live in North America and while there are lots of Nigerian Ladies around with reputable families here and back home, some of us are (were always) attracted to ladies we've known from back home before we left, and see no reason not to go back for those ladies provided things work out. I have lots of good looking Nigerian females here but for some reason, If I had to make a choice between my female acquaintance in Nigeria and the ones here, I will pick the one back home over them, not so much for the location, but because of what I see and what I want.

Bros biko hook me up. Nigerians are scarce in my state (East coast, next door neighbours to New York).

blueseacats:
Na that fat de vex me pass, none sense, bros I de vex for this fat matter wetting sef dem de carry fat go heaven? Naija girls go fat like say fat Na evidence of good living.
