Greetings. Please I do need assistance. I have been trying to pay for the shipment of my I-20 via study.eshipglobal. However, my paypal payment was declined. Are there other ways for me to make the payment? Many thanks |

user4321:Hi guys, So In rewrote the GRE Today. Yes a Lot of people said I had a great Score, But I just wasn't comfortable with my score, so I paid another 70,000NGN to BY Mafit ( Awesome guys). So in order not to flop the Quant, I decided to take some proactive measure. I registered for the Manhattan 6 Practice Test Bundle costing $50, (19,000NGN). I did quite poorly on 3 of the 6 tests. Also I started practicing all the Hard questions over at greprepclub.com forum, to pace myself, and get accustomed to hard questions. All through, I continued revising my vocabulary, and revising all my verbal strategies, so I don't slack in my rewrite. Also based on the advice on quora, I also wen through the ETS GRE Math review, to learn all the funny tips and trick of high school level math present in the quant. Test Day I woke up by 5:04 AM, and proceeded to fry egg, and toast 6 bread slices, for break fast. I went over all my strategies once more, and boarded a bus to Law school B/Stop. Then I trekked down to dragnet prometric. I made small talk with a lady I met there. AWA I went through the AWA quickly and confidently, writing about 900 words for each essay. The keyboard I got was better than the last time, so i had ample time to proofread. VERBAL I prayed for a first verbal section fervently, because I realized that would mean no experimental Quant section ( which I feel bleeped me up last time). So I was really happy when I got a verbal section first. I went through it in 15 Mins (I don't waste time on verbal). And I rightly predicted, I got three verbal sections. I really didn't care which one was experimental. It felt just about okay. QUANT The real reason I was rewriting. I went about the quant more carefully, I detailed my solutions very neatly. I paced very calmly, and resisted the urge to go back and forth shopping for easy answers. I knew getting all the questions right would mean a tougher second sections, so I got my cool, and went ahead calmly. =============================================================================== RESULT QUANTITATIVE- 169 VERBAL - 162 TOTAL - 331 SCHOOLS STANFORD UNIVERSITY -PHD UT AUSTIN - PHD RICE - PHD WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY IN ST. LOUIS - PHD GPA 4.74/5 WES (UNOFFICIAL) 3.82/4.0 cc- quoran scholastica16 time2win NB: What really helped me in no particular order 1. Encouragement from my friends to rewrite 2. Manhatted GRE 6 test Pack ($50) - (It really mimics the real GRE) 3. greprepclub.com/forum/ 4. Quora also I hope to beat my 4.5 AWA |

user4321:Not surprised at all. I think you are a genius. Rice and UT Austin are great picks. I would have added TAMU and GaTech and UIUC as well. Stanford is unpredictable but your GRE/GPA will not be the reason you are not taken, if you are not taken. I hope you are. You deserve it. |

That’s awesome sir. Work on your statement of purpose meticulously, it means a lot to the big boys. You should be able to get standard format for resumes online, and don’t get “he was a good boy” letter of recommendation, beg them to be clear and articulate your skills, experience, strength and potential. user4321: |

ponpon:I'm tight with my lecturers (UNILAG lecturers can be very nice sometimes), so they have assured me that I am covered on their own part. |

Congrats on your score, Ponpon has said it all. For your Stanford application, look out for Stanford Knight-Hennessy Scholarship. They tend to award two Africans each year. You have a great profile so you stand a chance. Wish you success in your application. user4321: |

Hello house, I've I'm new on this thread and I wish I knew about it few months ago. I took the GRE test in March and scored V152, Q145 Awa 3.5. I felt really bad as I prepared for just 3 weeks. I was informed by a POI to submit a formal application. I didn't even have a Toefl score yet. My application status still reads "no decision" I have every reason to believe that my application was not forwarded to the department due to incomplete application (I've not written Toefl). I'm over it now, but I want to take the tests again for Fall 2020 and I need study partners. My profile BSc Geology 6.2/7.0 First class OND Geology 4.48/5.0 I'm interested in PhD or MSc position in near-surface geophysics. I'll appreciate any recommendations for appropriate schools. Thanks all. |
