Good morning, Xfire

Permit me to mention that your initiative is one of the best on the face of social medias as at present and our words can't just appreciate your laudable efforts towards the financial sustainability of brilliant but indigent students in Nigeria.

My comment is about the online aptitude test. I could remember I sat for an online test few months ago and the result was embarrassing. The organizers based every questions on mathematical calculations, further maths inclusive. I mean question that requires formulas to solve and not mere a reasoning type.

Just imagine a student who last did mathematics four years ago, I mean being a medic, all must have being dropped from the brain. Consequently, only engineering students were able to clinge the prizes.

On behalf of all the Medical students who forwarded their interests. I am imploring the organizers to set questions that would not be kinda frustrating for some students who doesn't have the privilege of engaging in any iota of compmex mathematical exercises.

Thanks.

[quote author=GodOverAll post=52476962]blisylveser thanks a lot for your response. the other guy got me really

Never mind.. Now I know the show is different in university of Toronto. Cheers

blisylvester:
Read instructions bro
For U of T you only need to submit the MasterCard Foundation Scholarship online application form. Your eligibility for both admission and the scholarship will be accessed with just the form. Your scholarship offer comes with admission offer, you don't need to apply to the school for admission before or after submitting the online form else you are applying for any other scholarship that requires your applying to the school for admission

I am sorry to have a generalised conclusion then as I don't apply for the scholarship at university of toronto.

GodOverAll:
Also, i didn't submit any application for admission to U of T. It's just the scholarship application i submitted. did i do it right?

No Sir but nothing is impossible for God to do but you should be aware your official application to the University is compulsory. So many scholarships I see these days to study overseas discourage me because the sole criteria is simply either you have gain a conditional or an unconditional offer of study. Moreover, the application procedure can be so frustrating you have to pray for understanding of how to proceed with it.

Cooldreams, I received a message from master card that the undergraduate scholarships at MSU can not finance medicine. Though, I never bother to apply at first but I recently develop strong interest and my intuition told me to ask the MasterCard foundation at MSU if to apply for medicine is possible though am aware it is always premedical before proceeding to the Medical School proper

GodOverAll:
And i submitted just my WAEC result. No transcript.

May God help me.

Honestly, only Him can help you

Prudento:
Did you apply MSc? which course?

Undergraduate

Nad95:
Is the university of Edinburgh MasterCard scholarship still on?
Thanks.

No sir but Michigan State University will be on till Jan 4th.

I hope Edinburgh would not make guys develop heavy eyes.

I wonder why all these foreign universities always reject application to study Medicine

whoa, why didn't you go to a cyber cafe.

I thought my phone can do this easily

guys this exam is the worst have ever seen. I did no 1 to 5 only the next page was not loading at all. after I clicked on next it keeps referring me to the same questions I mean I can't just proceed to the other questions, I even tried chrome browser. Please is it a crime to utilise an Android phone for this exam because am confused. I became frustrated I had to start browsing other social website. I just don't know why

s3nn2x:
Na wa for you. Are you that desperate? Someone just told you that he knows someone who was called some years ago for an interview and was asked to pay some money and you are asking for the person's number, what do you want to ask the person? What kind of scholarship is that, that does not have a website? You are applying for a scholarship and you want to pay again, then what makes it a scholarship? I have never heard of such scholarship scheme before, you better look before you leap.

Bros, thanks for you words but am not that having interest in the scholarship
.1 The scholarship board have no website
.2. The email address sent to us was kinda fake because all messages i sent was not delivered
.3. I doubt if the scholarshp will be fully funded
.4 I will be writing an online apptitude test by Jim Ovia Foundation on same date set by this scholarship board in Abuja
5 This is Nigeria, one must shine his or her eyes

adeniyi3971:

@Manuelmarvy

I completed the Pre -Assessment form for MCF in University of Edinburgh and I was sent the application form. My question, am I to fill the form online or print and fill? Besides, there is no provision for attaching documents?

Fill it either using a phone or a computer then convert it to pdf ( i.e from dox to pdf) ask your friends who have the software which can perform the operation. After this, send it back to them. You dont need to print any document

Manuelmarvy:
Don't Quit!!
UBC, U of T, mcGill doesn't require any test whether SAT or TOEFL or IELTS. Once you get the admission and scholarship, they will arrange for an English test for you.... Same with University of Edinburgh, once you're eligible after completing the pre-assessment form and then completing the application... Fortunately you now get the scholarship in March i.e the final descion month for the award of mcf scholarship, they will provide fund for the required tests and everyother stuffs... You won't pay anything!
Moreover, you can't do medicine in canadian patner universities or university of Edinburgh except medical related courses... Buh if you really wanna apply for medicine (i.e Pre-medicals; coz US and Canadian Universities don't apply or study Medicine directly without you having done your pre-medicals) wait till next year and write SAT or ACT... Get a pretty good score and a very good high school GPA in your transcript, 3.8- 4.0... You will have to obtain your transcript and GPA from your present or past secondary school, (if you have already written WAEC; admission into Pre-medicals is a bit tough) and then, apply for Pre-medicals in Michigan State University before November 1, for maximum consideration, MSU is patner University of MCFS... However, MSU admission is not based on your grade unlike other patner universities, buh I will still advice you to have a very nice grade in your WAEC since you're applying for a scholarship.
So don't worry about any test and please don't quit, it's too early to do that!!
Take Care!

Fortunately all what i to study is simply medicine as am currently a medical student in Nigeria and as you mentioned no canadian partners offered medicine . Am just too confused about MSU application procedure espectially the ACT and SAT Scores. Sir, wont it be so absurd and unheard of for me to travel oversess in a bid to secure a quality education and start studying a new and strange professional course in contradiction to what i love doing here in Nigeria. I wonder why all these so called master card foundation partners universirties are not offering medicine. Thanks for the encouragement and God bless. Happy Sunday

OddJimms:
Really, there should be some manual for thoroughly applying MCF, cos earnestly some questions can set a fire within one and in no time turn one into a Dragon Lord! goddamn!!

I qiuted MCF because i dont have sat or act scores at the moment or can i still go on and apply to study medicine despite me never sit for these exams?

OddJimms:
