Fikky1:
Hello @lagosismyhome kindly assist please.

I posted my proposed transcript earlier, I got no response or comment but I have revised it

Why MPA
I can relate the failing systems of Nigeria to poor management of economic resources. An MPA degree gives me knowledge to be able to effect positive change through proper management of public funds and creation of more wealth. Through this, the Dependency ratio for example, which is currently at an all-time might reduce to a considerable low level in the coming years.

How did you know about the school?
I was particularly interested in schools that offered public administration with high emphasis on finance so I did an online search on such schools and ETSU was one of my findings

You have a good foundation so just work on the delivery. Be confident and articulate... all the best

Thank you.

Am going with the first appointment confirmation..which date were u rescheduled to?

seyifrenzy:
I was initially scheduled for August 1 but I later found out that I have been rescheduled just like you.

Also like you, I didn't receive any email notifications about this change.

My question is: Since I have not gotten any mail about the change, am I expected to take the August 1 appointment letter there on Saturday?

Thanks in advance.

guy cool down and stop lying
why are you lying naaaaa
if you get into this country 2016 you can never ever and i say again never ever get a permanent resident card which is 10 years green card and after that you will file for citizenship in 3 years
what you have is probably 2 YEARS TEMPORARY GREEN CARD or also called CONDITIONAL GREEN CARD
i have seen lots of people that was given 2 years green card that you have and was not given a 10 years green card which is the real one,i mean alot and alot of guys here have 2 years green card but when it expire they cant renew it to the real permanet resident card which is 10 years green card that will make you be eligible to file for citizenship after 3 years

and again if you really get here 2016 and you really have a green card ,what you have a 2 temporary green card that is going to expire and not the real and original green card that is for 10 years that will make you eligible for citizenship in 3 years

stop coming here telling lies and thinking old members dont read these post,i read this post everyday and just dont comment
and if you want to start an argument with me,i will do the maths for you with link from USCIS.GOV website

Hello bro, what’s the reason for why some ppl can’t get renewal for the temporary green card after it expires?

[quote author=sureb0yy post=69832392]It's ok. No offense taken bro. I just didn't want you to come here with a messed up mindset. I wish you the best.

Always go direct to the airline website and book your ticket.
I don't trust all these agents.

Nahum777:
I don't know if I should trust this Wakanow people. The airline doesn't even recognize me and they are saying they have booked the flight and I shouldn't worry. The lady who answered my call wasn't even sure. Please what should I do next? I have a very bad feeling about this.

I hate to break it to you but your answers no done well.
You need to have well prepared answers for every possible scenario question.
"Why MBA" isnt a question that should catch you off guard.
Even if you were going for a course directly related to your field, you need to be prepared for that question.

Just rehearse your answers a lot before the interview and you'd be good

Kweeen:
Good morning guys, pleaseee I need your input..All the gurus in the house, please help oo.. I've booked another appointment and seeing how the previous one went for me, what can I improve on or do differently? Especially the job description part, should I still maintain that I'm an analyst and just describe what an analyst does or should I say I'm an executive assistant and mention the duties I listed above which is really what I do at work? My interview is fast approaching .. Thank you

I did mine today.
Walk into any primary health care centre and go to their lab. They are all over lagos
I paid 1500 for it.

NefT:
Hello everyone in the house!

Please, I will appreciate anyone with contact of any doctor or medical lab scientist that can do it for me say tomorrow or the day after tomorrow...

Hello bro, what’s the reason for why some ppl can’t get renewal for the temporary green card after it expires?

When you get a GC through marriage, and the marriage is less than two years old before your interview, you're given two year GC and after it expires, you'll have to file for the permanent GC ( which is 10 years ). Most of the time the reason why some ppl aren't able to renew their GC, is because maybe the spouse found out along way that he/she is being used purposely for GC. Other times too, some just take off after getting the temporary GC, thinking they're off the hook, forgetting when the time come to renew, you still need your citizen spouse to file for the permanent GC.
And when your spouse know that after you get your permanent GC, you'll abscond, he or she will do it.
This is what some ppl do,when they get married, they don't file right way, they wait for like a year and a half, so that by the time they get called for interview, the marriage would've been two years old, so they just get a permanent GC.

They better book the flight oo. All the times I have called, they have always said they have booked it. I checked Checkmytrip and it confirms that they have really booked the flight, but the main airline are unreachable I don call tire. If they don't book it, it means I would have to forfeit my connecting flight. I am hoping they have done it because all the times I called, different customer care reps told me it has been booked.

Tunmise100:
Pls guys i will like to know if "TRIP ADVISOR" is a safe site to book flight ticket considering that it is cheaper compared to wakanow, travelstart, jumiatravel and others.
If you have used their service. I will like you to share you review of their service

Type/paste in the url here... www.tripadvisor.com is genuine if that's what it is.

imperiouxx:
Yea. I like that the VO tries to put the option to him for consideration. He sounds like a smart student.

I sent you an email sir!...

$205 still available for sale.

Sorry about your denial. All hope is not lost! Do not be deterred it's just a temporary ban after several log in buh one would be unbanned after 24hrs. Try to log in like every two hours. I believe favorable dates will pop up.

Hello dear.

You can edit your DS-160 form if you have about 3 days to your interview.

This edit would, however, generate a new application ID for you; this change (application ID) would need to reflect on your appointment letter.

How To edit your application form? Google it on Quora.

Thanks,...but I already booked an appointment with the first application ID. Or is there a way I can change the application ID on the appointment letter?. And also I'm using my sister's company SOA do I need to state that is the company sponsoring me or my sister?. Please house respond to this if u have an idea. Thankd

VO: Good Morning
ME: Good Morning, How are you yoday?

VO: Pass your documents(i-20, passport and Sevis)
Me: I hand it over

VO: What are you going for?
Me: I am going for Masters in Systems Engineering at University of Arkansas, Little Rock.

VO: Why UALR?
Initially, I spoke with one of my mentors (Dr. Isaiah in my Alma Mata) about my job and my career plans, and he advised I get a Masters in systems engineering as it will handle all my questions as relating to optimization of power systems. He recommended two schools in USA: UALR and UTEP as they had electrical streams in their Systems Engineering Program coupled with Professors who had research interests in Optimization of Power Systems inclduing renewable energy. I researched UALR and the curriculum aligned with my career plan so I contacted Dr Liu and he advised I apply. And here we are.

VO: What do you know about Systems Engineering?
Me: Well, Systems Engineering is all encompassing as it's set up to help design, model, analyze and optimize various real life complex engineering systems (electrical, mechanical, civil etc). This processes help to predict the system responses and failures, thereby also enabling a system engineer to profer solutions to existing and predicted problems even before they occur.

VO: WHat courses will you be offering?
Me: System Analysis and Design, Systems Architecture and Design, Systems Management and Evaluation, Linear Systems Theory, Power Systems Analysis and some other courses. In all, 11 courses as it's a 31 Credit program.

VO: Can you not continue your education in your home country?
ME: Well, I also researched for a Masters in Systems Engineering in Nigeria and only found one option in University of Lagos, but there was no faculty with research interests in the optimization of power systems so it was a NO for me.


VO: Where do you work and what do you do?
Me: I work with XYZ Power Distribution Company as a systems operator. Been doing that for about 4 years now. I manage, inspect, operate and maintain all substation equipment. I also regulate flow of electricity to consumers through various switching operations. I "prepare" the lines and make the safe for routine or emergency operations.

Me: How will this study program relate to your past work or studies?
VO: I currently work as a systems operator in a control room, getting a Masters in Systems Engineering is a step further into advancing my career in the power sector as I'll be focusing of techniques and methods in optimization of power systems, which will aid me in assisting to mitigate the major problems we face currently like fault location, power losses, power system instability, poor demand management etc. This course will help find solutions to most of these problems if not all, as I intend to model, simulate, analyze and optimize Nigeria's power system with Dr Liu's guidance, hence creating solutions to the problems I mentioned.


VO: Did you write any standardized tests?
Me: Yes, GRE. Q 155, V 152, A 4.5 (Provides Document)

VO: How many schools did you apply to?
Me: I applied to UALR and UTEP. I'm waiting on UTEP's admission decision.

VO: Who's your sponsor?
Me: My mom. She doubles as a civil servant and a stationary supplier to top private schools in Ogun state and also a few printers in Mushin.

VO: Why do you have two sponsors on your I20?
Me: I also used my cousin's bank balance while I was processing my I20 and I have his statement here too. Regardless, My mom is my sponsor as she has enough funds now to cover my expenses. My cousin will be covering miscellaneous expenses if any arises.


....PLEASE GUYS HELP ME WITH ADDITIONS and SUBTRACTIONS....THANKS

Got my Visa today guys. So happy right now.
I did my part and kept praying to God. Almost everyone before me were denied. I mean i saw blue everywhere. But I got a white. Please prepare and pray... Prayer is important. Trumpland, here I come.
