hello People, good day to y'all ...
Although I've been reading this thread and following religiously for a while, i just registered for it today (I'm still unfamiliar with its usage)
I have a few questions to ask, better still i need your input even if my questions seem banal.
I just graduated from unilag about 2 weeks ago and wrote the gre last week..
My scores were not so good, as i wasn't really entrenched in my studies as i was still working on my project.
I got a 315 , Quant 158 Verbal 157 (i plan on writing another exam in january, i didn't really read for this one i guess scores were fortuitous )
My questions are:
1. I graduated with a Gpa of 2.96 (terrible i know), but what are my chances, if any, of getting a scholarship..
2. I applied to random schools on that day, because the test was paid for by my Sister a week before without my prior knowledge and I didn't really Check it proper , what schools can i now apply to?
3. As I have no chance of getting my transcript till early February , do i still have a chance of applying for 2018
4. Please I'm in need of a mentor if possible to put me through, i may sound Ingenious, but please help my cause..
Waiting on your auspicious responses, God bless

Was here sometimes ago.
Thanks to scholastica, ponpon and other contributors here

Had my GRE after less than a month serious prep...thanks to hints on this thread
Q 154
V 152
AWA 3.5 ( funniest thing is I prepared for AWA two days before the exam)

In short, my advice if you intend to write GRE...Take time to practice, practice and practice (say two months). Gonna rewrite later, buh definitely not now.

My Profile

Course : Construction Management
CGPA : 3.89/4.00 ( WES)
Publications: 5

I'm applying to University of Florida( PhD Construction mgt), but the acceptance rate is 38%...Nonetheless, I'm optimistic.

Min Qualifictn. for the Department
Verbal- 146
Quantitative- 148
TOEFL- 80

Average is
V = 150
Q = 159
CGPA = 3.6

I have a supervisor there already who is very willing to supervise my thesis....

I plan to write TOEFL by December hopefully...

Kindly help out with schools suggestion.

Dunno why you want to rewrite. I also got 306 and 92 in toefl. I tried some schools and all of them gave me admission. Funny enough, our profile is almost similar as I will start Construction management this spring... Best of luck man

You have nice scores.
I think myself and others here will like to guide you but you have to provide more information about you.
Like the course you studied, schools you sent your GRE scores to, the course you want to study in graduate school.
Also you really don't have to wait till February before you get your transcript.
In short, you can get admission with what you have at the moment.
Answer the questions above and people here will guide you.

Great scores you have there. Wished I was as fortuitous as you in getting these nice scores in the GRE, but my scores were terrible. I plan to rewrite by January too. I'm also a recent graduate of Unilag. What course did you study?

Hello.
Please, what was the person's CGPA (WES)?
Did the person get funding?
Thanks.
Full funding! Auburn doesn't require WES for admission. As for the cgpa, he graduated with a Second Class (Upper Division).

Great!!
Thank you for the swift reply, Much appreciated.
I studied Geography and Regional Planning in the University of Lagos Right now I'm on a 2.92 but my 2nd semester results although not been released has been very good, over 3.0 is a guarantee (Class 2017 as aforementioned )
About the schools i sent my scores too, i honestly have no interest in them i just copied from people i met at the centre, thats why i want to start anew
Syracuse
Mary Washington
Baylor university
Rice university
Honestly , I'm one bad procrastinator as I've skipped writing the Gre 3 times this year, until my sister just got angry and paid (I only had to do it because i no wan waste her 50K� )
Now, i plan on applying for masters in Geographic information systems, population, transport or geography related courses. i believe i have a chance to apply to new schools but i'm of the notion that I cant get a full ride of at least an assistantship because My people at home cant afford it.
This is all me with a new beginning...
I just saw someone write about auburn, for me any good school is okay, im not so witty to be picky.
Finally, i apologise for my long post.. im not really a gragarious fellow so my writ says my mind.
Awaiting your reply, thank you.

Pls house,
I need schools in the US with january deadline that offer funding for Chem Engr. PhD or MS. I dont think I can meet the December 15th deadline of most schools. My GRE is next Thursday and I'm yet to write TOEFL.

Cool
I know some people that finished from your faculty. URP is a nice course.
I think you have done very well already. The schools listed above are great choices and you are free to add more as long as your pocket can carry the application fees and other fees such as ets score report fees.
What you need to do now is to check if these schools have your desired course GIS, check their individual department requirements and application deadline. It may also be good for you to contact some of the faculty (lecturers) that share same research interest with you, ask for opportunity to work in their group. Also contact contact the program coordinators as well; make your enquiries from them.
Note: by contacting I mean you should send them e-mail, and if after two days they have not replied your e-mail, find their number on their page and call them one by one and make reference to the e-mail you sent them.
Also if your sister have some more money to throw your way, try to write TOEFL as well.This is a more simpler test that you can prepare within two weeks and perform excellently well in it. Also if you are writing the TOEFL, DO your best to score 26 and above in the speaking part while you also maintain a score of nothing less than 25 in the other sections ( reading, listening, writing). You can download free baron and ets TOEFL software online.
Do your best to finish all these before End of December.. also note that the application process will require you to get recommendations letter from your lecturers.

You can ask more questions on whatever you do not understand.

Your GPA is so high...
Do your best in your coming GRE.
You can use this weekend to browse the internet extensively to search for schools.
You can use www.usnews.com or www.4icu.org to search for schools in USA state by state. Taking into account the program requirements, application fee, deadline, faculty research interests...
Is important you do this search this weekend so you can shortlist atleast four schools you will send your GRE scores to immediately after the test.
If you have additional money, is good you register for TOEFL too.
