Guys in Yankee that need extra cash and have a valid US Drivers license and SSN, sign up for Amazon Flex, a minimum of $1800 a month is guaranteed.

Just google Amazon flex and sign up.

Bro, if you yourself haven’t signed up for that thing, please don’t try it. And if you have done it, well you are officially f&*ked! I’ll tell you what you don’t know.
Well I hope you are still in college and haven’t dropped out of status yet.
That amazon side gig will reflect on your SSN and someday when you want to neutralize to US residency, it will pop up in your record and how would you respond to that when asked “why did you violate the F1 rules while you were still a student?”
Whatever answer you give to that question is unforgivable and you would NEVER get the residency!

They don’t even forgive when it comes to that!

All the best bro

Lamzee:

Boss, please kindly help the Bro

Listen,
I once asked you why you were speaking for that person in such a sensitive issue. I asked for a prove to be uploaded and all you can say to me is “please kindly help the bro”.

Well this don’t feel right to me anymore. I give up without proves! I won’t be subjected to emotional blackmail. I just want to be sure I’m doing the right thing, but this doesn’t feel right to me anymore. I wish him the best ( or if you are the one behind the moniker).

Hopefully other nairalanders would help him.
Nah... I ain’t doing this

Larox:
Imperioux, others have done it before.
I have seen PhD holders going for first degree again.

Pls see other point you can correct here, others are learning from this trend.

I’m sure you were the guy we were all advising sometime about applying for an associate degree in a community college sometime while you are being adamant about it. Now you had to open a new moniker to seek for advise after reality has dawned on you.
Like an adamant and careless person that you are, you are still arguing with someone who is giving you a tangible advise talking about you seeing phd holders going for bachelors and he should give you other points.

Let me tell you something, you need to go and work on yourself really! You have a lot of sh&ts to get right about your attitude and approach towards life. I know you would come for me, but Someday, somehow, you’ll remember someone told you this.

All the best

Lamzee:

Boss what do I need to verify when he get to my place so that I can show you

Whatever you can post on here to support his stands

justwise:
[/b]

Rule 8. Don't post false information on Nairaland.

This is the problem with you, you lie a lot and preferred insulting people rather than presenting an honest argument.


Its not a reward for going against mod but for posting a complete false allegation.

So in other words, the guy don chop ban be that! dem mods got no chills

TWoods:


With vacations, family, friends, free food and err women... it sort of became pointless arguing with the morally bankrupt and intellectually incoherent lot here.

shakol91:
. I know saw someone dey laugh on top things that have been happening recently on this thread since he went on exile,God pass you O.

Lol Twoods has been active on the other Student Visa thread. He probably got tired of you guys here. Atleast he is more appreciated on the other serious students thread than here. This thread is more for people wey no send and just jaahh by any means

lionlee216:
Bboy07 meet with the guy thst want to give you a laptop then i once he verifies You, i will send the 6k to him to make the laptop functional before you get it. Get in touch with him

Okay I ve seen your Facebook. Now follow the above advise and meet with Lamzee. Have lamzee come on here to verify you and you are getting 50k from my end! Till then, All the best bro cc Bboy07

bboy07:


1. Wow you are a programmer too, maybe you will be my mentor o to guide me

2. Basically starting with graphics design for now.

4. Let me pm you my FB username so you can add me.

Like I said, the only time I will go private with you is IF and WHEN I am about to transfer you the money. Till then, let’s talk on here for the sake of other silent and potential helpers who might consider doing more for you if it all sounds right.

That being said, tell me your Facebook name here so potential supporters too can do their verification....

bboy07:


Wow thanks a lot bro for the mini laptop you volunteered to give me, I am sorry to sound ungrateful but I have to be sincere, I don't have the 6k you said I should come along with.

A mini laptop might not be able to handle the softwares I intend to use as most mini laptops have really low memories and might slow the mini laptop and eventually crash the system.

I intend to use it mainly for graphics design which requires at least 2gb ram laptop.

I really appreciate your kind gesture and am very very grateful but have to say the truth than to deceive myself by accepting it and being unable to use it for the sole purpose i came here . May God continue to bless you for you have a kind heart sir.

6k isn’t the problem, just verify your identity! If I can find a way to verify all of this, I’m pledging 50k and I’m sure other meaningful peeps on here would do better, but I’m not transferring a dime until my mind feels right about it. So give me some proves... No PM... everything will be done on here

bboy07:


These are my intentions if i get help;

1. Buy a laptop- 2gb/4gb ram
2. Work full time on fiverr and up work
3. Learn software development with my earnings as i like programming alot, did I crash course on HTML and css back in school since then I can't stop dreaming about becoming a full time programmer in java, I like anything calculation and problem solving so I think I might be able to achieve this feat.
4. Save up enough money to further my education in information science under which I will focus on software development.

These are my good intentions and not to scam you.

1. As a full stack programmer that I am, I can tell you that you can barely do any tangible programming especially java with a 2GB laptop without the laptop frustrating you.

2. What kind of work do you want to do on Fiverr?

3 Sounds good to me

4. How can I verify your identity?

Lamzee:
Oga Impulse, please help him if you can do so, in the absence of none, Bro if you can come to Computer village Ikeja, I will get you a Mini laptop. Just come with a little change like 6k Note:the 6k is for Battery and charger.

Why are you speaking for him? In such a sensitive issue where the world is watching, you might have people thinking YOU are behind that other moniker. Are you??

bboy07:
Hi oga B.J, first of all, I want to say a very big thank you for creating this insightful thread.
I have been following this thread for a month now tho I no dey comment. Pls B.j my situation is far from hopeless but I believe there are good Nigerians like u who can help me out. I lost my dad at a tender age, I had to drop out of UNN in my second year cos my mom became terribly sick which resulted to the loss of her job, I started selling gala just to survive and take care of my siblings but after reading threads like yours, mackynaija, I believe i too can become a success story. Pls I need u to help a fellow Nairalander and a Nigerian. I learnt graphics design which I can use to make lots of money on fiverr and upwork to sponsor my schooling in the US but the only militating factor hindering me is a laptop. And I have no one who can help me out with a laptop as most people around here don't even have one. I am barely existing now, I sell gala just to eat and survive. Pls help me sir and God will bless you.

N.b: I sell in front of winners chapel, Cannanland, Ota, Ogun state. You can send anybody to verify if what am saying is true.

Thanks in advance

I see you mentioned me in your story.
First of all, what plans do you have in rescuing you from your situation? I know you have financial constraints, but what exactly are your plans if you ever get a source of support?

Solomon27:



The only change is one should have a better presentation, not necessary there should change in ds-160.

Whatever your definition of change is. I can’t remember mentioning a change in ds-160

It’s hard to proceed without getting questions. Am I alone or is it boring? Let me know.

Until then, you guys can further read on classes and methods.

Lamexx:


The best thing is to be silent on the number of months. Just state 30 credit, 12 unit course work, 12 unit elective and 6 unit research as the case may be. In my case, my I20 stated 36 month duration but I can't mention that I want to spend 36 month for a Masters degree so I was silent about it. I just stated the number of credit units I will be doing. I do not know whether it is standard for most school but the minimum is 30 units for thesis Master and 36 units or more for Masters by coursework. Hope this helps.

Yes most applicants don’t understand that the schools usually add up your OPT period to the I-20 which inflates the courseworks duration, but usually; you are done with your masters within a year or 18 months at the maximum before proceeding to OPT.

Fatezee:


Thanks for you review

Not 28 credit hour, 28monthS duration ( according to my i20). I said 30 total credit unit , 24unit course work 6 unit thesis (according to the school website )

You can actually finish 30 credit units in 12 months if you do 9,12,9. 28 months doesn’t sound right to a sensitive VO. That was my point.

Solomon27:
Guess they do pity reapply student visa applicants

There’s nothing like pity, if your reapplied application don’t have any changes from your first one, you are likely to get the same response all over till something changes

Solomon27:


Try and reason with a CGI worker, they can help you bout getting a date but might cost you money though. I heard they can help about approval too

Lol you joke too much! CGI can’t do anything for you except you just want to do charity for a CGI worker by giving for fun. The US Embassy is nothing like the typical Nigerian System

Fatezee:
Was interviewed by a cute black American lady but denied.

V.O: Why are you going to USA

I am going to the United States to study for my masters degree in Civil engineering at Cleveland state university ohio, i will be specializing on transportation engineering.


V.O What is your highest degree

Bachelor of technology she cuts in what aspect of technology, i said Civil engineering

V.O What makes you decide to study civil engineering

I choose to study civil Engineering because i inspire to contribute to the infrastructural development of nigeria, i will be specializing on transportation engineering, this is because nigeria suffers 3 major problem in her transportation System which are bad road network, traffic congestion, n flooding on roads, this are the problem i inspire to tackle as a Civil Engineer

V. O What attempt have you made to tackle any of this problems?
During my undergraduate, i did a research on rainwater harvesting system, to control flooding at ogbomoso, rainwater harvesting system is a system for conservation of rain water, so we installed it in such a way that we collect rain water frm the roof top n chanel it down into the open well, n it worked .

V.O How many sch

3, cleveland state university, idaho state university, Michigan technological university

V. O Why cleveland not others
I choose cleveland state university because i will be working on a research with professor jackeline on transportation operations and zonal safety, also csu focus more on the transportation aspect of civil engineering, wch is my specialty told her( i wasnt admitd by Michigan tech)

V. O Who is sponsoring you
My elder brother

V. O What is his name

***********

V.O Why does he wants to sponsor you

He manages my dad's construction company,

(ooh okay cool)

V.O Can i see his statement

yes

V.O. I believe you are a very strong candidate, but i want to make sure u meet all the requirements am very soorry pls reapply... Honestly i was confident n didnt stammer,


I need your opinion, pls what do you think went wrong in my transcripts So i can work on it

Some VOs are lenient while some are super strict with the answers applicants give. That VO you met with was really on top of her game and ain’t letting go of any criteria in considering you even though your interview sounded well, but 28 credit hours in a duration of 24 months done make sense. As a student on F1, minimum you can take per semester is 9 credit hours. Now let’s do the maths, in 3 semesters you’ll be done with 27 credit hours. The total credit hours you mentioned doesn’t tally with any masters corriculum. You either do a 30 credit hours or 33 credit hours. There is nothing like 28 credit hours for masters so apparently she came to the conclusion that you don’t know what you are saying. Sorry about your denial. Try to refire

This is a typical example of the skeletal codes I posted above for better understanding of what access specifier and datatypes are

Ask Questions if you don’t understand any part




using System;

namespace BoxApplication {

class Box {
public double length; // Length of a box
public double breadth; // Breadth of a box
public double height; // Height of a box
}

class Boxtester {

static void Main(string[] args) {
Box Box1 = new Box(); // Declare Box1 of type Box
Box Box2 = new Box(); // Declare Box2 of type Box
double volume = 0.0; // Store the volume of a box here

// box 1 specification
Box1.height = 5.0;
Box1.length = 6.0;
Box1.breadth = 7.0;

// box 2 specification
Box2.height = 10.0;
Box2.length = 12.0;
Box2.breadth = 13.0;

// volume of box 1
volume = Box1.height * Box1.length * Box1.breadth;
Console.WriteLine("Volume of Box1 : {0}", volume);

// volume of box 2
volume = Box2.height * Box2.length * Box2.breadth;
Console.WriteLine("Volume of Box2 : {0}", volume);
Console.ReadKey();
}
}
}

Access specifiers specify the access rules for the members as well as the class itself. If not mentioned, then the default access specifier for a class type is internal. Default access for the members is private.

Data type specifies the type of variable, and return type specifies the data type of the data the method returns, if any.

To access the class members, you use the dot (.) operator.

The dot operator links the name of an object with the name of a member.

This is what a class would look like.

Access specifier would determine the kind of access you want to assign to the object either private, public, protected and so on. (We’ll get to that part too)

Class name of course is the name of the class

Datatypes are the keywords used in declaring variable e.g int, float, double, string and so on.

This is a typical example of what a class look like.

I’ll be open to entertain questions on your curiosities


<access specifier> class class_name {
// member variables
<access specifier> <data type> variable1;
<access specifier> <data type> variable2;
...
<access specifier> <data type> variableN;
// member methods
<access specifier> <return type> method1(parameter_list) {
// method body
}
<access specifier> <return type> method2(parameter_list) {
// method body
}
...
<access specifier> <return type> methodN(parameter_list) {
// method body
}
}

When you define a class, you define a blueprint for a data type. This does not actually define any data, but it does define what the class name means. That is, what an object of the class consists of and what operations can be performed on that object. Objects are instances of a class. The methods and variables that constitute a class are called members of the class.

Defining a Class
A class definition starts with the keyword class followed by the class name; and the class body enclosed by a pair of curly braces.

Sorry for the wait....
First, one thing we need to understand is the fact that object oriented programming in general is designed in such a way that the programmer has to create objects and assign a function/method to the objects. More like creating an object and writing codes to tell what you want the object to to.
For example, I create an object called “Mr. Driver” and I have to write a code to tell Mr. Driver to drive and/or where to drive to and where to stop. That is what methods and functions would do.
Before all of these starts to sound complicating, I’ll like to reverse us back to understanding the concepts behind that. And that is why we would be talking about classes and objects before we move on to methods and constructors.

Bossman:
One thing is certain in this world - Nothing is guaranteed! Things are changing and evolving and we just have to adjust as that happens. For now, I would say the Medical fields - Physician, Nursing, Pharmacy, etc. The IT fields - Software Development (everything is getting automated), Database admin, Project Management in general. The engineering fields - Civil, Electrical, etc. Finance and Accounting as well. Honestly, the most important thing is, whatever you do or study, make sure you are very good at it and you keep improving on your skills. As for specific courses, just take the courses that will qualify you for one of these jobs.

You sabi. Software Engineers and Medical doctors are the new days millionaires
