pepe4reps:Yes they will. But if it's US, there's no need for conversion. The fee is already in their currency (USD). |

benELOHIM7: These are not issues. My GPA was lower. I had a 2.89 and i still got admitted. Major, i switched as well. My undergrad was in Electrical Engineering and now? Am doing a Masters in Computer Science. I wont lie to you, changing majors is challenging - You have to start from scratch, even worse alot of classes assume you have some prerequisite knowledge which you don't have. I kid you not, you would seem like the dumbest person in a lot of classes but if you persevere, study smart and do academic work, you will be fine. In summary, your GPA and major should not deter you. Do a good job on the GRE, make at least a 310 combine that with good statement of purpose and you should be good. One last thing though: be smart about the schools you apply to. Apply to a mix of average schools and schools that would beg you to attend. The beauty of America is that for every academic percentile, there is a school for you. This by SirRiddy comes in handy as well: Hi guys. 8 Likes 4 Shares |

abid4akin: It depends. Some schools require a proof of English proficiency while others dont. If you can afford it, i would advise you to take it, you have nothing to lose. |

Good day to you all and thanks for the good work you've all been doing. Just want to add my one cent, for those currently preparing for TOEFL and/or GRE verbal, there's an android app that will help you increase your vocabulary, it's better than making a flash card, the name of the app is 'memrise'. It's quite useful, I'll post some of the screen shots here. Wish me success as I'm writing toefl on Saturday 21st May. 3 Likes 1 Share

More. NB: You can use the app to learn any language of your choice. The person that introduced me to the app used it to learn Japanese and Arabic. I also plan to use the app to learn French after my exams 2 Likes

sirRiddy: Pls for undergrad students who have been accepted to an American Uni but no money: 1. Do you know where they can get external scholarships? 2. What happens if such a student moves to the US without funds? Will he be deported? |

BOLAUWA: Did you already take the GRE? If yes, please share your experience so others can learn from you. As for the Toefl matterials, send me your facebook email address and i would add you to a Toefl group on facebook. You would find all the materials you need there. Admission Consultancy Personally, i am not fond of admission consultants because i had a terrible experience with one. Most consultants, i say "most", dont actually care about you. They care about one thing - Profits. You might not know this but most consultants have profit sharing deals with certain universities. They get a cut for every student they send to a particular university. Meaning when you approach a consultant, they would most likely recommend a school that is not in your best interest. In my situation, the agent made it seem like i could only get admitted to 3 universities. This would have not been a bad idea if those schools offered my major and area of concentration. She tried to influence me to change my intended major cos according to her, those were my only options. This is simply "NOT TRUE" as there are thousands of schools in the US and if you search diligently, you would find a school that fits your requirements. You can do this. I did it. SirRiddy did it. And many more persons too numerous to mention did it as well. In essence, if you must use a consultant and can afford it, be clear about your requirements and accept nothing less. But if you are like me - curious, money conscious and just loves doing things on your own, roll up your sleeves and find a school on your own. Its not that difficult and as an added advantage, you would learn and understand how the american education system works. To help you, I would post a school search guide before the end of the week. 4 Likes |

From page 1 to page 80, every post by DanjaNinja was a hit back to back to back. My exam is on Wednesday.... What are things to do and not to do now... With practice tests, I noticed I often miss questions that are quite very easy, those with '' could'', '' if'', ''must'', or mixing up a plus and minus sign, dividing 16 by 2 to give me 7 the whole gist that GRE is super tough makes one even misread the questions... My practice tests scores have been in a range sort of, make baba God just top my score.. I have done all of Kaplan online, I did 3 Princeton, free Manhattan test and the power prep, the hype of the power prep made me fumble in it, I can say it's the easiest of all the tests, I over expected and since they say it's a reflection of your final score, the fear not to under perform sets in and I mixed up a lot of plus and minus, and the rest... Danjaninja, sir riddy and the rest of the senior men on here, please help me through this last days ooooh, what and what do you advice a brother man do few days before the exam, I am even down with malaria sef... Naija life! |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Nobody: 9:41pm On May 22, 2016 |
ponpon:Well done on your prep so far. Use ets practice questions, the verbal and quant workbooks/question banks. Revise your basics. If you are on the GRE facebook book, try and visit regularly too. Take it easy on yourself. Get to test center at least an hour to the start of the test. You will be more relaxed then. Shi.t before you enter JKK or any center you are writing at. Good luck and Soar. Please do not forget to share your test experience when you finish writing. |
