Someone, please...

Hey guys I need your humble input please. For those that registered for paper-based GRE, please how long did it take ETS to respond to you? I registered for the paper-based GRE at the centre at Aba, then the form was posted to Princeton. Please how long does it take for ETS to get back to candidates?

I remember you guys discussing a way of sending packages to naija.
I have a watch I want to send but afraid of nipost and DHL is too expensive for a heavy package.
Pls help.

Hey bro I also attended their training session when writing my SAT and TOEFL. Is it the one at Ikeja or where

I have just mailed him. The issue here is for the paper based gre,there are two ways of registering. Either you do it online or you register at the test centre by printing the form online,filling it,then the centre will then post the completed form to Princeton,US. Mine was posted last week on the 25th of November but I haven't heard from them. Is it possible that the package hasn't gotten to the US? Heard it takes upto 3weeks for packages to get to the US.

iseyinoro:
Yeah in Ikeja.I'm a staff.

Hello bro. You've got mail.

marshal02:
You are on a very good path to obtaining multiple scholarships /graduate assistantship. Here's what you do. Don't be in a hurry to write the GRE. You might be very sound, especially with ur first class degree. But with inadequate preparation, u might flunk GRE. So don't be in a hurry. Take ur time.(Maybe about 2months)Prepare well, Ace the bloody exam. You Nigerian CGPA should put you on 3.5 or 3.6 /4.0 American scale. While you are preparing for your GRE, look for schools, I would encourage at least 4 schools. You would want these schools with their GRE codes handy on the exam day, so you can send your scores at once to them. Take the TOEFL too.. It is quite an easy exam. So you should book ur appointment for both of them. 2weeks is too much to prepare for TOEFL self. But try that. Most Good American schools and some Canadian ones need TOEFL.. The US Embassy ask for standardized test result too. And it make them see you as serious, if you take both exams. In my case I didnt need to take TOEFL, but I did. Just for the embassy sake. Although I ended up not being asked the standardized test questions though. Bottom line. Don't rush. You have time to prepare for fall admission. You should have written both ur exams by let's say February.
If you went to a federal school. I think a good advice would be to start processing ur Transcript now. Cos those people are evil. Same trend in most federal universities. My 2cents.
