Hello House,
I was denied visa on 30th Nov and I feel like posting my transcript so the house can scrutinize it and proffer correction where it occurred.

VO: Good morning
Me: Morning and how r u doing
VO: oh fine, fine. Where r u going
Me: I am going to USA to pursue my an Associate degree in Environmental Science at Butte-Glenn College, Oroville California
VO: why that school
‎​Me: because high academical standard and rigorous course structure and small class partern of the school
VO: how could that be a reason to choose the institu
Me: u and I know that qualities will afford students personal attention from faculty and staff
VO: well, I don't know, u tell me
Me: in such a situation, student are exposed to rugged on the field practical and not only book knowledge because of it rigorous nature
VO: ok ok ok. (Type for some second and I was expecting it has been granted). How will that course benefit u
Me: Sir, by the time I got myself acquitted with the latest technology and modern practical methodology, I will come back to invest my skills in the newly establish 400tpd toxic waste mgt recycling facility of my state govt which is being situated on my ancestral community (big lie oooo)
VO: who do you have in Oroville
Me: None
VO: (start typing again and turns) are u married
Me: No
VO: Do u have kids
Me: No
VO: Not married with no kids and why the gap in ur academic year. I'm sorry I dnt think u will come back to ur country. (Serve me a blue paper and return my doc)
‎​Na so my eyes open
keep calm bro, it's not the end of the world. Just reinforce n repackage during a reschedule interview. Make sure you digest the info on USA visa thread. You have enuf transcripts to learn from there.
If i may ask, what's the gap like in your academic year?

Greetings to all partners in progress on this thread. I decided to register for GRE today after much contemplation. the problem now is i chose 20th of Dec, the site confirmed it and i advanced to the level of filling d parent/ guardian details, also ticked d options for " purpose of wanting to take d gre" blabla... but along the line, i encountered an error...the site asked that i try again later. As anyone ever had similar xperience? I signed out n signed in again to try n this time around tho 20th was still available but it denied me of seat after confirming my details. Could it be that i have been added to d available seats during my first attempt to register or the seats have been taken. Someone said those "not available" seats are usually booked by agents so as to surcharge prospective candidates. Dunno how true... Pls someone should reason my matta before i choke
resolved

Yes Jihadists r trained to fight holy wars. But wen there is no war to be fought, they have to create d war so they can test run their acquired skills. Why is islam regarded as religion of peace? I suppose to hide the truth? Islamic terrorist every where. God help us

Car TalkTips For Car Owners- Must Read ! by GlassDoc(op): 7:57pm On Nov 17, 2015
Windscreens are one of the top priorities of car owners when it comes to maintenance. Taking good care of your windscreen doesn’t only make your car look excellent, it helps you to drive safely as well. In times of impact, windscreens prevent the roof of your cars from caving in on every passenger inside. Also, they secure the airbag system to protect you from impact.
Now that i have highlighted some of the importance of windscreen, you wouldn’t want to compromise safety due to improper maintenance. Below are a list of tips to consider in order to properly maintain your windshields:
1. If you notice cracks or chips in your glass, have it repaired immediately. Trash, pebbles/stones and sand particles can fracture the glass and cause dings which, if left unattended, can turn into bigger cracks. Regular windshield check-up is even advisable. Some car owners with cracked windscreen can hardly tell when they acquired a crack because they don't perform regular checks.
2. Avoid slamming of doors. Slamming of doors causes intense vibrations to the windscreens. Also, those little dings on your windshields can spread every time vibration builds up when doors are slammed.
3. Avoid parking where your windshield can be directly hit by sunlight. Long exposure to direct sunlight shortens the life of your windshield. Also, those little cracks may get worse if there is a considerable temperature difference on either side of the windshield. So choose cool, shady places for parking. Avoid winding up when you have a crack, and the weather is hot. This can cause your crack to expand and extend.
4. For cleaning, avoid ammonia-containing glass cleaners. Ammonia-based cleaners are dangerous if inhaled and may destroy the tint. A weekly wipe of vinegar or alcohol is sufficient. Also, use microfiber or cotton towels. They are extraordinarily absorbent and do not leave streaks and dust behind after clean-up but a sparkling surface.
5. Don’t forget the wipers. A lot of scratch on the windscreens comes from sand particles and dirt from the wipers, so it is necessary that these should be checked and properly cleaned. Use a rag with a windshield fluid washer. Rub these along the blades to remove dust, sand particles and other contaminants.
6. Do not allow water on a hot windscreen or spray cold water, alcohol or any other liquid on a hot windscreen, the temperature of the water needs to be similar to the temperature of glass in order to avoid crack out because sudden temp changes causes expansion and greatly increases the chances of crack out.
Stick to these tips to keep your windscreen in good condition throughout the lifespan of your car. Remember, when it comes to windscreen maintenance, time is not your friend. As soon as you notice cracks, do not attempt to fix it yourself or else things will just get worse.

hello. just finished the exam few minutes ago!
this thread was really helpful in preparation. av to contribute my quota
Tip: if you ain't good with maths. start with barron, solve every question you see then move to the official GRE text. For verbal and writing us magoosh and the official GRE Text.
But personally learning all the vocab wldnt help. don't depend on it.
My experience : wroke at JKK in lagos, started with issue task, baba don write 15mins b4 I realise I mis-read the topic, sha rugged d remaining 15mins write sometin, argument task was cool tho., next Verbal, I never see verbal wey hard like ds b4. a lot harder than barron n magoosh (my opinion). study GRE frequent word list. na just 2 I see... guessed for most. twas hard. Quant : Quant was a lot cool. 1st was good. the 2nd was harder. guessed the ones that took time.
Prepare for the Quant well, am not rili a verbal person. but don't be scared if the questions comes hard. I sha dey do all dey go. VQVQV
Result : V- 147. Q-160. total 307.
congrats brov..! Thanks for sharing also
