I'll advice you defer your admission. You have 3 refusal clause how can you asssume and reapply. I understand how it feels like but the last thing you want is to rush your next application and submit a "desperate" application. Please calm down get the gcms note and reapply.

Thanks

Hello Gurus in the house!

I applied for TRV for adegree program on the 7th April; got denied on 8th May with VO citing Purpose of visit, Travel history and Personal and financial assets as reasons. I ordered gcms note on 16th.

My concern is waiting for the gcms would mean shorter period for visa application and processing -- Since the earliest time I might likely get the gcms is on 16th June whereas and my Sch resumes 4 Sep.

I'm looking at taking a risk of re-applying now or wait till I get the gcms notes.

Your Candid advice will be appreciated.

Good morning house,
I need your suggestions and advice. I have secured fully funded m.sc position on vaccinology and immunotherapics at in U of Saskatchewan in starting January 2018. I am gathering my documents for study permit but my concerns are how to prove my home ties and gap between my youth service year to this year. I graduated in microbiology 2013 and did my service in 2014. I worked briefly with a private university in 2015. (Feb-may) before enrolling in m.sc environmental microbiology in one of Nigerian public University.i have defended my thesis but Senate yet to approve my results due to lingering ASUU strike. Currently I am unemployed . I am also worried if the V. O will have issue of me going for another m.sc , what can I use for my home ties and it's my admission letter for environmental microbiology enough to present as time lapse.
Gurus in the house. I need your suggestions and advice.
Thank you

What is the implication of choosing L ASU as DE applicant and also choosing it as UTME. Hope it won't marr the chances of either of the admission because someone want to pursue the two about to do the screening for UTME since DE is not responding yet but will do that as soon as DE portal open

It will surely backfire once discovered

God bless you, This sametin I talked about some times ago but because of people's love for xiaomi, they just don't want anybody to criticize them even when they are doing something wrong. I even challenge the seller and vow not to buy from their store again since I thought they might be one who did that ojoro but later found out that they aren't when I read other people's complaints about it on Gsmarena.

I don't understand some people too. Maybe they were paid by xiaomi to defend them or perhaps they feel people's complain is gonna harm their businesses could the reason they are always steadfast to defend xiaomi. I'm no hater of xioami by any means but stating the obvious.

Can you upload samples of pictures that you took and didn't come out well?

If you over think this issue, you might end up not enjoying your phone. My take though.

Pretty sure that Xiaomi are not the known brand to source different parts from different vendors for the same device.

I'm not feeling so bad about the device because of its other good capabilities. I'm only calling for transparency and no one is shortchanged. But now that ubev01 has said the ones with better cameras are the more expensive ones then the case is settled.
Phones / Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by Olakunlae: 12:30pm On Aug 11, 2017
ubev01:


You are buying for 150 what many of us bought for 190 and you are talking of paying the same amount. The better camera came with the 1st set that sold for a higher price

Agreed. But did you read where I wrote "they should have given them different names the same way note 4 is distinguished so that customers can make their choices.

It is good that you are agreeing that those that paid $190 got better cameras because they paid more.

Sourcing parts from different vendors didn't start with note 4, and will certainly not stop there. It has been their business model.

How you arrived at the conclusion that pics taken with Samsung sensors end up in sorry state, is certainly beyond me. So phones like note 3 pro or redmi 3s pictures are awful?

You should compare the pictures from redmi 3s and note 4x (Sony sensor) and see for yourself grin

If you are still worried about sourcing for parts from different vendors, then I'm afraid to remind you that the fingerprint sensor also comes in 2 variants, Goodix and FPC


In a bid to defend Xiaomi you've decided to go off path. I never said anything is wrong with sourcing of parts. All I'm saying is that same phones of same models should be built with same sourced-parts and not varying sourced-parts. Why should phones of the same model differ in Camera sensors - leading varying degree in picture quality?

I'm yet to see any official post or link by xiaomi regarding the particular camera sensor to be used on note4/4x.


This is why people should always read official pronouncements before making any decision(s) regarding any phone model to purchase and not base their knowledge entirely on third-party sites/blogs.

No one is cheating anyone here.

Well I blame myself for even making this discovery known.

Maybe there are no official pronouncements but that doesn't override the fact that it is wrong for them as a brand to make fones of the same model with different sourced parts. Definitely one will turn out well than the other.

Now, some customers are lucky to get ones with a better camera while some are left in a sorry state —even though they might have all paid the same amount depending on the seller. Xiaomi should have just given them different names just like they distinguished note 4 and let us make our choices.

No one is cheated you say? Imagine, I paid same amount as most people here, we are probably enjoying same functions but some are enjoying a better camera.

NB: I won't be this disappointed if all RN4Xs are the same but subjecting me luck is what I don't fancy.

BTW I got to know about the camera sensors used in RN4X on the MIUI forum and not here

Xiaomi disappointed me somehow. I've been snapping pictures with my RN4X and I discovered that the pictures are not as nice as the ones I've been seeing people post here. I wasn't so disappointed till I got to know that the RN4Xs were released with 3 different Camera sensors: Sony 285, Samsung and ovl 3855. Unfortunately, I got the later.

How can the same model of phones be made with different materials and sold for the same price? Damn, there is no justification in subjecting people to Luck. Same phone model should have same hardwares and specs. I feel cheated.
