I feel d region should set up a team of mobile emergency anti-terror patrol team, comprised of d airforce n d army. Can't we get spies that can mix up with this group n leak their location to d security agencies? The local hunters too should rise up to d challenge, they should stand up for themselves, they should build light weapons n defend against these monsters.

I am looking at Msc/phD programs in Electrical Engineering.

In my previous Gre attempt, I had a combined score of 328.

I am guessing that MBA programs would require high quantitative scores. So if your prep will be quant-focused, then I am game.
wow, 328 is an excellent score, why do u want to resit d exam. Anyway, it depends on d sch u r applying to. What's ur score breakdown, I mean Q n V scores.

It might be d church's rule to deflate tyres of members that refuse to follow parking instructions. However, d church shouldn't av gone to d extent of deflating ur tyres if truly dey were d ones dat did so.

Wetin be chai there!?. All this yeye people deceiving themselves with godly relationship!.

I've seen where a guy who was in a so called 'godly relationship' ended up getting married to a girl who has one brea.st! Can you imagine!. After their wedding night the guy was furious only for the pastor to start preaching yeye love and forgiveness thus forgetting the blatant deceit.

I've even seen where a girl got married to a guy who is impotent, I mean the guy can't get an erection!.

Cases of this sort are all other Nigeria. That's why I tell anybody who care to listen to "test first" and give "testimony later". For me all this so called 'godly relationship' is nonsense!!!.

Do your school research, know the requirements of each school and decide on the one to write. Be sure to choose schools with similar requirements. In my own opinion, the odds favour toefl because it's easier, straight forward n more acceptable even in Canada. Ielts is important if you wanna do Canadian immigration.
Thanks, I'll go for d Toefl.

Hi,

Let me begin by showing my gratitude to the selflessness and generosity I see on this forum. My progress so far in the process came from the knowledge I picked on here. If this attitude is replicated in different spheres of our national fabrics, we will have little or no reason at all to leave our shores. Thank you to every one of you for your contributions.

I apologize in advance if anyone is taken aback by my question. I’ve been admitted into the University of Missouri St. Louis and Middle Tennessee State U for a masters degree. And I’m currently waiting for University of Utah to make their admission decision on my application. Getting admission is obviously not a challenge to me, but my scare is getting a study visa with my age and marital status. I am 34 and still single (male). Do I really stand any chance at a visa with my situation?
Bro, u r going for an advanced degree, age shouldn't be a barrier especially in America so I see no reason it being a cause of visa denial. u must av done ur homework pretty well for u to be admitted to those schs. Did u get any funding from d schools? Even if u don't, as long as u can provide evidence of funding for ur studies, u r good to hit d consular.

STEM = Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. Basically, a MS or Ph.D in any of these fields makes you eligible by law to be hired by a company on graduation. Courses outside STEM are not permitted by law.

OjaP:
I have said this so many times on here. I will repeat it again. Do not come to America with the hope that things would sort itself out. At the minimum, have your tuition for 2 semesters (unless you have a scholarship) and not just come here hoping that one family member will house you or cater for you. That won't happen.

In agreement with BigFrancis, I have noticed that those who have relatives in the U.S are the ones always complaining. Why? Because they are expecting too much from their uncles or aunts and get disappointed when that doesn't happen. Many of us here came to America without knowing anybody. I slept in the hotel for several days when I newly came before I got an apartment of my own. I knew what I was coming to do in America and was well prepared and wasn't expecting help from anybody. As bitter as this might sound, having enough money is the way. You don't need anyone.

Also, some people come here and study some courses that are not in high demand. I am always an advocate of STEM, any day, any time. I got a job because I was a STEM major. Just yesterday, Kpolli announced here that he got a job too in the West Coast - most likely in the Silicon Valley or the Bay Area, because that is where things happen in the IT world. Although, there are some people who finished school and still haven't gotten their dream jobs, but they are still managing some where, any how because they went to school. Some even went further to pursue a PhD. A good Nigerian-American girl would even be ready to marry you if she knows you have an advanced degree. That would make your searching easier as well.

Overall, bring enough money when coming here and complete your studies. If you have no money, then be prepared for the worst and don't blame any uncle or aunty for that. Everyone is on their own in America.
Thanks bro, what is d STEM program all about?

That's too bad. They should dialogue with the affected students, profer a lasting solution to their unrestiveness instead of outrighly suspending the program. What of the previous fees they paid and the time they have already spent in the school? Will that be suddenly washed down the drain?

Please the school authority should have a rethink on their decision, unless their want to tell us they've suddenly become DREAM-KILLERS!
