bigfrancis21: The process can be quite arduous. First, search Fø̲̣̣я̅ prospective schools that suit your level of academic capability (I mean don't aim Fø̲̣̣я̅ top schools if your academic records aren't exceptional. Fø̲̣̣я̅ starters, such schools α̲̅я̩̥̊ε̲̣̣̣̥ highly competitive, have lower acceptance rates, have higher application fees and, in many cases, have high tuition rates). Your school search criteria should include low/average tuition fees (something you can afford in case you don't get a GA ø̲̣̣я̅ any other financial aid in the end), low cost of living in the state (south-western states α̲̅я̩̥̊ε̲̣̣̣̥ the do.pe), G̶̲̥̅Ơ̴̴̴̴͡.̮Ơ̴̴̴͡D̶̲̥̅ weather conditions, G̶̲̥̅Ơ̴̴̴̴͡.̮Ơ̴̴̴͡D̶̲̥̅ chances of financial aids such as GAs, and a sound academic program. Check out their requirements. See if you're eligible. Most likely you'll be required † write the GRE/GMAT. TOEFL ι̥s̶̲̥̅̊ waived in most cases Fø̲̣̣я̅ graduate students. You apply. Then await their admission decision. Application Fø̲̣̣я̅ financial aid can come either at the same time of the admission application ø̲̣̣я̅ after you've been admitted. I'ð suggest here that you go Fø̲̣̣я̅ schools that offer a full tuition remission when awarded a GA. Not all states do. The state of Texas, Fø̲̣̣я̅ example, gives 50% tuition remission - you still get † pay school fees. After admission, your I-20 will be sent † you. You'll need it Fø̲̣̣я̅ your interview at the embassy. The penultimate stage ι̥s̶̲̥̅̊ the visa interview at the embassy. Always stay abreast on this forum. It will be your best bet Fø̲̣̣я̅ information and guidance. And finally, you buy your flight ticket.
And please, avoid agents. Anything they do, you can do it and even do it better.

Yvete: I sent a cashier's check via USPS Express mail tonight at the kiosk outside. Delivery before friday noon. Thanks Yall.





DISCLAIMER: Informational draft. I may be wrong so you don't have to agree with my suggestion. All the best.

SAMPLE........The MS degree will open doors for professional advancement in Economic Policy institutions in Nigeria(like CBN, FMF). Coursework in Intl Economics and Finance will equip me with me the right skills to analyze sustainable economic reforms to overcome Nigeria's economic challenges, reduce poverty, improve living conditions and promote development on an International scale..........

Extra Note: I believe that Nigeria is weakly integrated in the global economy because of our dependence on natural resources and failure to create policies to become competitive trading partners in international economic activities. Basically, the impact of globalization shaped my mindset to think globally. (If you're not vast with sustainability & development, create something you're familiar with like trade policy)

Why XYZ?
...... Its graduate faculty is well reputed in its research on international economics, trade & finance, and have published journals for "(--Do your homework here; Go to your department homepage, select 1-2 professors and take note of any journal publications). Be ready to drop some names and talk about their research, if need be.

Thread carefully & avoid ambiguity! Please know what you're talking about cos' most Diplomats are usually Pol Sci., Intl. Relations, Economics or Psychology majors.

Congrats babe, cos if your not a babe. . . . You might be gay

So you wanted to scam your guy but got scammed instead. . . Karma

amaboss: It all started some years back when I was still in secondary school. My dad will pick my junior brother and I from school and on our way home, he'll pick this lady. This occurence took place more than once. I and my junior brother as at then thought then thought the lady was a co-worker or the wife to a close friend or something like that. Then my mom started getting suspicious after noticing the kind of attitude my dad started putting up. My elder brothers decided to check if my mom was just over reacting or if her suspicions were true; and lo, my dad was being promiscuous. We comfronted him a lot of times and he kept denying having a mistress. We brought a lot of evidence against him from text messages sent to a number and text messages received from that number, yet he denied them all. From then, he was careful, we never found any incriminating text message on his phone. Later on, my mom found a piece of paper with love messages written on in in my dad's own handwriting. With this, we comfronted him again and as usual, he denied it, and almooost denied his own handwriting. The following day, we invited our pastor over to the house and when we were asked to present the paper, it was missing. We asked him and he denied having knowledge of where the paper was.

After the paper incident, he started to deteriorate in his responsibilities as the head of the house and as the breadwinner, not that he was fully the breadwinner before then. God really blessed my mom with a good job and she was able to do the things my dad wasn't able to do and take care of us in a way my dad wasn't and won't be able to. So it was safe to say my mom was the breadwinner. His promiscuousness wasn't hidden anymore and it was now glaring to everyone. We all put him into prayers; prayers wasn't yielding much, advice, counselling, rebukes, and all manner were like a boring joke to him. He continued to fail in his duty as a father, as well as a husband.

Just recently, my mom was transfered. We were happy for her, at least it would save her the drama. With her gone, we received the full-dose of dad's behaviour. It was like living on your own completely. I took solace in school, at least it saved me from nursing a broken heart everyday. I never for once asked dad for more money for school fees but I saw why some students took much more money from their parents for school fees.

Then the question we'll ask ourselves is if a woman as beautiful as my mom and blessed with a good job with a comfortable position and paycheck, with every reason to go out and look for a better man to take care of her, can stay faithful to God and to her husband, is it so difficult for a man, whose achievements are not much compared to hers to stick to his wife and be a good husband and father?

Not all men are your dad, or are you like him?
Stop generalizing. . . For a guy, am disappointed

elkharpone: Its a sad day for me i was denied this morning

Sorry bro

highyo: I know this is hard to believe, but I will still do my best and let the Holy Spirit reveal the truth to the readers
(Funmilayo Adebayo speaking) please, for those of you running after America Visa Lottery, and Those pastors that keep praying for their church member to win America lottery, do you think America are fools? Foolish to the extent of recruiting people from corrupted countries to come into their own country to corrupt it too

When they were planning to Introduce America Visa Lottery, I was still in the kingdom of Darkness when they held the meeting, that they will need people that they will use as detective after Antichrist begin, people that has known many places in their home town, people that they will use to lead soldiers whenever they want to start forcing people to get the mark of the Beast (666)

So they recruit many people from different countries all over the world. After getting to America, while checking their body, they will write 666 on their body but they will never know, never until antichrist begin. And immediately antichrist begins, this 666 spirit will pump out of their body; their spirit will become wild and even different from that of human being. Then they will gather them all, even those that has ran away, will run back to join the troop willingly without looking for them. After then, they will be returned back to their former country, and then they will be leading soldiers into villages and town, showing soldiers where people can hide in order to force them in collecting the Mark 666. They will be telling soldiers where people can hide;

we have a cave in our town people can hide, we have an underground in our town people can hide, there is a forest or swamp people can hide, in such a way that, no one can escape from antichrist

There is no place they won’t reach, even they will show the soldiers where their own parent are hiding if their parent missed the rapture, because they will lack mercy, for they are no longer themselves
So therefore in anything you are doing, always put God first. There are a lot of things we are ignoring, do you think Satan is tired, the bible made us understand that, Satan never rest, he will keep deceiving people till he achieved his aims

Have you ever asked yourself these questions? Who are the people the antichrist will use as a soldiers;
Will he also be given power to create millions of souls he will use as soldiers?
Or is it the present soldiers that missed the rapture, that still have the second chance of making heaven will willingly wastes the chance?
Or are the soldiers’ demons?

Of course No, they are registered human being like you and I. some has have the mark in their body but they will not know now until then. If you have anybody closer to you, all you have to do is to go for deliverance, so that God will push it out of your body before is too late.
Please Men of God in the house, Pray over these if it is true or false. In any thing you are doing or about to do, involve God first

SO this write-up claims the antichrist is definitely american. . . I see

chiteny: Family and Romance section would have been more appropriate. How ever my small contribution goes thus:

For the fact that he continued his fatherly and husbandly responsibilities shows he has forgiven her. However I believe the trauma he went thru informed his decision not to make love to his wife again. I think if he is still in love with her, he should try to let go (he could seek a psycologist) and by prayer be fully reunited to his wife. If on the other hand he can't, he should let madam go (divorce her if she is ok with this) so he does not create room for mire temptation.

Psycolokini. . . He should accept his lose and leave her

Mamacita007: Finally i'm ready. Its next week oooo my peeps. I want to take the time to thank everyone here for their help to us all. we have argued, misunderstood each other and helped each other as well. Even sometimes pple say things we dont like but the main point is the end goal and that is success. I'm happy to be a part of this forum and special thanks to my cousin yvete for everything. May God give us a reason to celebrate and enter his presence his gladness of heart and thanksgiving.

Time to digest the Holy book of Psalms.

Best of luck. The Lord would grant you divine favor. Go and bring good news

Timijo: Do you think rightly before typing this trash? How could you think that the only thing women do is to prescribe drug for ill person? Women are unique creature created by the unique God to influence men. Don't under estimate the power of women other wise you will be........

This doesn't make them better than the men they were created from. Now please analyse what you wrote, they were created to support (not influence) men, so how would they then be better than anything but support men?

Does this poster know men at all. . . Not men in movies

Why can't he mix the 2? Do his paintings on weekends

Eneze1: @OP men are not better leaders please get your facts right

Like Eteh shey?

PATTIBAT10: My brothers, frankly speaking I am in this dillemma and I feel helpless. I feel like taking jump into the Lagoon, but what Lagacy will I leave behind; A LOSER!!!

What did you use as collateral for this loan?

[quote author=mama-gee][color=deeppink]Lol. . .

Very funny story![/color][/quote]Mama-gee is back

uchechuwku: No, not yet

I finished second skul inn 2006 and I just finished in the university this year (5yrs course) with a third class degree.
where do I stand a better chance?
Another undergrad program or a PGD?

You just finished university, serve and try to put your best in the company so they can retain you. . . This gives you work experience and take certified exams. . . This would repackage your application. . .

I have friends who are doing masters with 3rd class in USA n UK, its just by increasing your portfolio. . . Some skools even say second class or 3yrs working experience

Timijo: 1. Women live with greater vitality: "Girls just want to have fun" right? Women do enjoy life better than men and in general are healthier due in large part to the fact that women have a stronger immune system than men

2. Women are better at building relationships. They respond and connect with people better than men. They talk more about the inner life than do men.

3. Women perceive character in other people better than men. This is a compliment to #2 and it seems to make sense. A woman builds relationships and connects emotionally to people and therefore should be able to recognize the true nature of people better than man.

4. In line with #2 & #3, women are better encouragers than men. Unlike men, women aren't as concerned with "one-upping" the other person. They can more sincerely applaud accomplishments of other people.

5. Because of strengths such as listed above a woman is better than a man at nurturing her family. A woman was for nine months physically and emotionally connected to her child in the womb. That kind of connection creates an almost unbreakable bond between mother and child.

6. A woman has better sexual longevity than a man. A woman may take longer to get aroused during love making but once she is, she can go better and longer than a man.

7. A woman withstands higher temperatures better than does a man. Remember that a man is better at withstanding colder temperatures. A woman is at the other end of the thermometer- she is better at withstanding hotter temperatures.

8. Women maintain a better balance in life. A woman's body contains a higher level of serotonin than does a man's. Serotonin soothes emotions and slows thought processes thereby allowing for clearer thought processes.

9. Women are better drivers than men. By better I mean they are safer drivers. It's probably due in part to their poorer spatial perception- they tend to stay at safer distances from other cars. It's also likely due to their clearer thinking- they aren't in as much hurry or as aggressive as men.

10. Women are better managers than men. Many of the strengths listed above give a woman an advantage over men in managing people. Men may be better leaders but women are generally better managers.

Remember, social factors can create exceptions in individuals of both genders and, when circumstances require it (a single mom) either gender can exhibit strengths of the other. The above list is based on known science but the differences between men and women will likely never be understood fully. I certainly don't.

Either ur looking for female admirers or ur a boring person. . . . Ur list is sooooo wrong

Only thing women can do better is prescribe drugs for ill people without being certified.
