I don't blame you. Your Uncle chose a one building school for you to attend. He probably chose the course for you to do also.

Okay. It is just to gauge yourself before you start using the book. It is not really like the GRE questions you will see on the test day but it is very useful.

You have to do this on your own. Use Google and search for your preferred program. All the information you need will be found. It is more productive to seek the opinion of folks here when you have done your own research.

Sorry,I'm curious. If they ask for samples of legal writing,it means they assume you are already proficient at it to a certain degree. If you cannot provide your own legal writing samples,how will you cope when you start the program? When you're applying to certain specialised programs, you need certain things to set you apart from other applicants. For instance, if you are applying for an MFA, you need a writing sample or portfolio. Same goes for an artist who wants a certain kind of degree. I will advise you check the program well and make sure it is well suited for you. Nevertheless, you can find writing samples on Google but unfortunately, they can't stand as yours at the moment.

Please I need help my people. The school am applying to asked for a sample of legal writing. This is not a personal statement. Now I don't even know how to go about it. Anyone who has written such before? Please help a sister. You can contact Jen on whatsapp: 08064553800. Thanks my able people

You are talking about God's grace in your post yet you're advertising a sham stuff.Don't you fear God? Smh. People like you spoil things for genuine people.
Vanessa77:


Well those that are interested should contact me through email. I did not come here to insult anyone and by God's grace i am not that type that loves argument. I expected the attacks to come from some people sha. But there are some others that don't want to go through the stress of school application, visa, studying for years in school and so on etc... They just want guaranteed citizenship right away so they can get on with their life and use it for their benefit and benefit of their family. Please those are the people i made this post for, thanks and God bless.

Congrats on your GRE. I guess you're going for Fall 2019? If so,You have more time to check out more schools.
orelio:
Hey guys Good Morning.

So I gave Gre a try yesterday. Q162,V152.

Powerprep average :Q168,V152
Kaplan average:Q164,V153
Princeton average:Q164,V156
Magoosh average : Q160, V152

Recommendation
For verbal, although my score wasn't good but I think verbal grail, cracking the gre,magoosh questions and ETS materials should suffice. Don't waste your time cramming too many words, it's a test of structure not grammar.

For Quant; Ets materials,5lb Manhattan, magoosh questions.

Also take as many practice test as you can.

Thought about retaking it tho. I knew I could easily have gotten 166> in the quant if I had managed my time well.. But my verbal has been around 152 even in my practice tests; so except I know a way of improving it significantly(especial those RCs), there is no point retaking it again.

My profile
Mechanical engineering
UG : 3.35/4.0 but my last two years result is 3.57/4.0
No publication
IELTS: 7.0
Gre:314
Experience: 1 year Non engineering experience

Gurus in the house what are my chances for Kansas state university, auburn,Oregon and university of Arkansas.. I'll like to apply to more schools though so I'll appreciate your suggestions.@ponpon, quoran, scholatica16,Mr Riddy....

Though USA schools accept IELTS, TOEFL is preferred by most of them.I can't say if there's any advantage of one over the other as I have only written IELTS some years back. Write TOEFL if you need to.
Remen:
I have gone through this thread but i have some questions please. My Gpa is 4.13/5... I have IELTS of band 8. Is there any advantage of Toefl over IELTs. I intend to take GRE.

Good attempt on the GRE though you didn't get the score you envisaged. Nevertheless, your score isn't useless. You can still use it to get admission for masters degree programmes. However, if you want funding, you have to get a competitive score.

Relax and reflect on today's test and your performance. Don't be too hard on yourself. Try and find out what went wrong. When your diagnostic test /review is out, study it to know your weakness.

I know the feeling of rushing to retake the GRE in 21 days time. Unfortunately, your score wont change if you have not improved on your weak areas. Please give yourself time. At least a month. Since you're going for Fall 2019, take your time and have a good Quant score.

PHD admissions are competitive as funding is usually involved , so meeting the minimum requirement is not a guarantee. For your masters degree application, you can use this GRE. However, if you want to improve on it, the better as funding opportunities can come up. Cheers. All the best.

Good afternoon Quoran and other gurus in the house.
I wrote my GRE test today and I got an abysmal score and its so painful because it means I wasted 3month preparing for this test
Well, I realised I was just blindfolded by my test score on Magoosh and powerprep which made me reduce my reading habit in the last two weeks of preparation.
My unofficial score is 303 (Q157 and V146) but I sent the score to some schools and I want you to help scrutinize my profile.
GRE-303
HND-WES OFFICIAL EVALUATION (3.59)
Course of Study-Electrical Engineering
RECOMMENDATIONS- 2 Doctors and 1 Mr.
I sent my scores to these four schools
Florida state University- hoping to apply for direct PHD and their GRE requirement is 145 in verbal and 151 in Quant
North Dakota state University- PHD in Electrical engineering. A professor from there have a PhD position with full funding and I will be mailing him today or tomorrow
Rochester Institute of technology-Masters Application
Georgia Southern university- Masters in Applied Engineering


Please give me an advice. I am thinking of taking that test again in 21days. The only practice I need to do more is RC. That thing get as e be ooooo
