Hi guys, just seeing this thread. I have an issue with my sevis fee. The person who paid for me since Monday has been telling me to wait that it'll reflect on the sevis site but till now it hasn't reflected. My interview is tomorrow by 6:30. Pls any advise on what to do

LagosismyHome:
He quoted you wrongly but wasn't referring to you

Olumuyiwalasode:
Hey, mr.man, im not here to fight you, and i already told u it was a mistake to quote you, so i expect you to be mature with ur response...

Predstan:
Bro. It sounded like you were referring to him.
@johnkay101 that was too much Sir. Please apologize and move on.

Another Brown2Green scenerio. Well this hustle doesn’t pay you. The real clients are outside this thread. You should target them.

Brown2Green:
So who are you reporting this to?

Your foolishness precedes you.

4gunners:
Flesh and blood did not reveal this to you. I contacted him to see if he could recommend one or two skls that can fund my program(I applied this fall to several skls, but got admits without funding), surprisingly he requested 80k from me.

It was then I realized, though there are lots of people on this thread that are genuinely helping people--selflessly I must say-- but one or two people are here to make there presence known, so as to get there potential "customers". A sorts of business strategy.

BURSTED

Predstan:
I bet he doesn’t know that Monicker. He’s very new on this thread.

That lady started from dishing out advice like this... You can agree with me that this guy does not have any other business apart from this thread. He’s the first to respond to every question.

Brown2Green:
Stop talking rubbish.
Go and read the transcript from page one.

CuteRedd:
@bolded You must have the best profile on the face of the earth that can never be achieved by any other person, because it’s only if you have seen his profile and your profile is better (to the point of it being “parallel lines” ) that can you make this statement.

Ah Nigerians and “do you know who I am” mentality. Mental Midgets!

bracelum:
E be like say this Johnkay101 dey suffer from depression. For the word " top school" to dey vex you, e be like say you collect reject from one of them. No worry, I get remedy for you before you go drink Sniper.

Send me an email and I'll work with you and get you into a top 20 university for fall 2020 even if you have a 3rd class GPA. I'm very serious about it. All you have to do is to do all I ask you to do and I won't charge you a dime for it. Though, it is not going to be a rosy process (I need to give you the head's up)

This offer is only for Johnkay101. If you want admissions counseling from me, you'll have to pay and it is not cheap.

Johnkay101, buzz my email on bracelum@gmail.com.

If you're not interested, it's okay. But always STFU whenever I give my comments here. If top school dey vex you to hear, close your ears and ignore my posts. I gave the poster a nice advice based on ROI and you carry your bad belle come dey attack me.

ProYouWebsiteUK:
I tire ooooooo.

I just wonder why they hate his words that much. Even when they know that what he's saying is true but they won't admit to him because of the hatred they have for him

CuteRedd:
Did you see “But if not” in my post? I guess that takes care of it. Also you have added a caveat of the person not being intelligent, which i believe is not entirely true because we measure intelligence based on one source of truth but that is another topic for another day. That means the person doesn’t have the capacity to improve other aspects like GRE, SOP, and maybe hasn’t done quite well in the work experience aspect. Which I think “but if not” has covered.

“Shreyas Renukuntla“ with a 2.8/4 converted CGPA, he had 5backlogs in his bachelors degrees he had to retake. GRE 314. His game changer was his SOP and interviews which he used bolster his profile & it helped him clinch Cornell University (Ivy League) Ms Systems Engineering. You can check him out on LinkedIn and interview him.

CuteRedd:
@bolded he is right tho, if they bolster the rest of their profiles. But if not, attending a top school though may come with its benefits but it isn’t the holy grail for success in life. So let everyone be true to themselves and pursue their goals according to their own desires.

CuteRedd:
did you read his post at all? That is the best True advice anyone could have given him. It’s like anytime you guys see “bracelum”, you don’t want to care what he has to say even if it makes sense.

This is a faceless forum but the way people are sensitive and won’t even acknowledge an advice especially when it comes from someone you all have tagged “outcast” is surprising. Your saving grace “advice” might just be in the mouth of the person you don’t like. People like this can’t have mentors. The question is can people look beyond those flaws to get the treasures? If they can’t, then I doubt people like that can go very far.

Stop being too sensitive, it’s a faceless forum. Analyze things objectively. It would be for your own good.

P.S Read his post objectively.

Brown2Green:
So what business has that statement with the matter on ground ?

I agree with you not everyone must go to a top school.

My own philosophy is, if I'm not going to a top school , I must go with funding from that school.

But your response came at a wrong time when a critical matter is being handled.

So calm those nerves of yours.

ProYouWebsiteUK:
Mr know better, how is he talking rubbish? He gave advice in his own opinion, if you think you know better, then give your own advice in your own opinion and stop ranting on how other people's opinions irritates you.

Why would someone spend that much on school that is not an Ivy school? If you think you don't have a good profile to apply to a Top school then apply to a regular school but a good one that won't cost you that much.

That's what he's saying. He's saying the right thing and not rubbish.

bracelum:
Every candidate has the potential to join a top program irrespective of their GPAs. It all depends on your drive, perseverance, and ambition to push further and optimize the other parts of your profile to submit an awesome application. Those three qualities are rare and it isn't my fault if you don't cultivate them.

So, stop being bitter because I'm saying the truth.

Brown2Green:
You don't go about spending $74k in a school if it is not an IVY.

If you're well versed, then you will know the full meaning of ROI.

If one can't get the right admission and funding , the best thing to do is wait.

bracelum:
With these points of mine, I will advise you abort the plan and join a top 20 college AND a very lucrative degree if you want to pay this high for graduate school or you join one of the regular colleges and receive full financial aid if you just want to be comfortable with a decent job.

Predstan:
You cannot do this anymore when you have 3 days to your interview. Else, you will be turned back at the Embassy.

TWoods:
That is actually not in any bible... Ps 116:6 please. Perhaps you should read your bible more.

TWoods:
So you also asked for a false SOA and it was given unto you?

I have never seen citizens of any other country so religious and yet so corrupt.

TWoods:
Millions of students come to the US every year to study. For the vast majority of them, it is typically a smooth application process. the only reason you need "miracles" is because of the country you've created.

Answer me this riddle, why did that same "god" not show the same "miracle" to another person with the exact same profile as you? Is your "god" a respecter of persons? Did you make any special sacrifice?

TWoods:
1. Simple answer - i did not want to spend the rest of my life with folks like you.
2. Nope, i was not asked to return and i was very clear about my plans and intent to work in the United States.

Your last sentence is completely confused. Everyone knows what a Nigerian means by the term "hustler"... and "legit" does not include using fraudulent SOAs.

TWoods:
Fraud = wrongful or criminal deception intended to result in financial or personal gain. You know you are being disingenuous so i won't even bother to argue with that statement you made right there. You are not much different from the "bad" leaders you blame. You would do the same thing if you were in their shoes.

The person who was denied has no know else to blame but people like you. You keep blaming the level of corruption in this country, when you yourself are here justifying corruption. I laugh in greek.

naira0:
It is in times like this that silence is golden. Please, don't drag the issue further!. Can you just pore over what you wrote up there? Does it make any sense to you? This is a public forum, please, let's stop washing our dirty linens outside.

Kendrix69:
Leave the tone abeg...anyone dat disagrees with all of una....next thing is "change tone" ...its a lap dog dat will be swallowing whatever u say hook line and sinker una dey always want

TWoods:
Sorry... you haven't had to fly to international airports and be treated like a criminal, not because of anything you've done, but because of the willful dishonesty of those who happen to share the same passport with you by accident. This is not about "because you made it", its about doing the right thing, especially for those who loudly proclaim "god" in every post here.

A country is nothing without its people. A country does not magically happen, it is simply a reflection of what its citizens are willing to accept. The countries we are running to did not develop a better life by magic or because they have a special blessing from a deity... they did so by holding themselves to strict moral codes of conduct, a thing we despise. Everyone wants a better life, they are just not willing to put in the work to achieve it, rather preferring to steal, lie and cut corners. My tone isn't the problem, you are.

TWoods:
The sentences in highlights are confusing to me. In one breath you say fraud is discouraged, but then admit that it is ok to commit fraud as our only chance at obtaining a US visa?

Perhaps that is why things never change for us? Because too many of us are ok with the end justifying the means... we are ok with fraud as long as it benefits us. Yet we complain that we are treated with suspicion at embassies around the world.

The US education is not designed for the rich, it is designed for Americans. Nigerians should design an education system that is affordable to its citizens. Oh wait, we can't! We've dishonestly stolen the money... all in the name of gawd of course. If there is one thing i am genuinely thankful to God for, it is not having to raise my children in a zoo where it is ok to lie with impunity.

ToluwalekeA:
Visa approved today. will share transcript soon.
