Please Justwise and SpikesC,

I have been reading this thread as a guest but I want to get these issues bothering me ironed out, I got admission to do Msc in the UK. My tuition is 10+ pounds and i have paid 8k pounds but my problem is the maintenance fee. I have about 7million in my savings account which I intend to present at the UKHC in lagos, what i want to know is, must the maintenance be what is stipulated in the CAS or above that, also must the money be in the bank for 28 days as mine is above 3 months in the bank.

Please note that 8k pounds i have paid is not from the mentioned 7million.

thanks as you help me out here.
The fund in ur bank must not be less than the maintenance fund plus the remaining unpaid school fees. Therefore, it can be as much as anything but not less.

It must be atleast on a consecutive 28days and not more than 30days of the day you're applying. Therefore, count 28days backward from the day u want to apply and print those days but making sure that in those days, it never went below that.

Hope its all clear

I cook well but I like taking my time to do things the way I like. For example,I prefer slicing my tomato and pepper for stew(sauce) rather than blending it. So slicing it would normally take time.
Then you just have to learn to cook in bulk. You cook varieties when you have the time, then store it in the freezer
EducationRe: Man Beaten For Molesting OAU-Ife Student by spikesC(m): 5:33am On Oct 30, 2014
pchax:
I see a lot of "jungle justice" comments and some go as far as slating the students of the great school for such a barbaric act. I would play devil's advocate here. Permit me please.

Firstly, I would start by saying that the most organized and civilized set of students you would meet are OAU students. You can talk as much as you want when abusing someone but the moment you raise your hand to hit someone, you are in for some disciplinary actions to call you to order which is otherwise known as maximum shishi.

Maximum shishi is not jungle justice at all. It is a tradition and it is well calculated and not meted out impulsively. It is dished out after careful and fair consideration by a size-able amount of student representatives and it is served hot. On the other hand, jungle justice is just a knee-jerk reaction of some uninformed set of people to unleash their barbaric nature with an aim of destruction. Maximum shishi does not aim to destroy; it aims to correct.

A little story to back up my point. I have been a partaker of maximum shishi in Awo Hall. It was my freshman year and I hit an annoying roommate of mine after a long roll of exchange of words (I was way taller than him and I had those little anger issues that come with youthful exuberance). The guy reported to the hall execs and I was dragged from Angola to Awo in the company of a couple of slaps and a torn shirt. On reaching awo, the first question I was asked by who I don't know (cos I was just a Jambite) "are you a cultist?". To cut the long story short, I was well beaten but not paraded around shaaaa and I learnt. Till today, I do not get angry easily, I have not laid hands on anyone and I doubt if I would ever. Thanks to maximum shishi.

Greatest of the greatest Ife! I bet, this man's life would never remain the same again. Thanks
I usually read and pass, but your tactical and smart display of ignorance and illiteracy is something i cannot just pass over.
The composition of your ignorance is unfathomable as you went on to even defend it with this kinda bullcrap.

You need to re-educate yourself. Let's just call it personal development.
You need to create a personal development plan to bring out your self from ignorance, raise your literacy level and see if you can be a better civilized individual for the sake of our society.

I wouldn't blame you though, Nigerian educational system has failed us all.
I wish you well in your quest for knowledge

The cooking is easy, i mostly cook in bulk and freeze it. You need to up your culinary skills bro

What i tend to get worried about is everyone knowing where you live and wanting to visit everyday.
I'd be like, "Dear, this is not a freaking motel nor is it a gaming house for the guys".
Everyone needs his/her space, and unannounced guests is a no no

I applied for a tier4 student visa to study at capital college eltham london,I was refused on the ground that my maintainace fee wasn't sufficient enough to cover my accomodation even when my mum deposited 16500euros.the equivalentof 3.6million in my account for 33days,that apart,was also told that I didn't do research on other school before applying,that they weren't sure I was a genuine student due to one or two mistake I encountered on a phone interview,I applied for an administrative review,was called last week friday to fill the review form and send to an email the embassy gave me,eventhough my review has been sent on an earlier date before the call,its been approximately 2weeks now,and I haven't heard from them yet,my school was able to send me an accomodation letter after the refusal,and my fees is just 3500pounds of which have made a down payment of 1500pounds,not withstanding the 3.6million approximately 12500pounds in my account.
odehbrainard:
@spike the wise one,just so to convince them when I applied,I added my mums pay slips,promotion letters and appointment letter,just so they won't doubt the source of income of my sponsor,made a mistake of not attaching the slips of the last 6months of 2013 instead of the first 6months slips of 2014,so the ECO said the slips I tendered weren't recent and that what if my mum isn't in service anymore,so for the review,the solicitor rquested I sent him a copy of my mums bank statement of the last 6months of her salary account,and I was also lucky to get her recent 6months pay slip,so with my accomodation now covered and my mums been able to prove that she is well in service to sponsor my studies,what are my chances for a successful review?
You are tackling your problem from an angle not required. You're supposed to address the questions raised ONLY, and not add more.

First of all, are we talking euro here or pounds cos that might be your mistake.
Also, did you clear your school fees? if not, how much is left to be paid? and did the full amount clock 28 days?

Then, you have to address the other question raised, being that you're not a genuine student. You can start by accurately answering the failed interview questions. And possibly, detailing what you have been doing a few years ago that leads up to you applying to school in the UK.

Nevertheless, being that you've already submitted, we can only hope that all will be well and turn out successful.
And then, note that you cannot produce new or different documents for an Administrative Review. They would only access you with the old documents you submitted, unless of course, they asked you for more documents.

http://blog.laptopmag.com/best-worst-laptop-brands-2014

Here is an article discussing the various manufacturers, the reason I didn't get technical because at a certain pricepoint, every laptop or desktop have similar hardware and internals. They all typically have 8gb+ of RAM on higher end models, dedicated GPU or high-end Intel intergrated GPU, a fast SSD drive, and high resolution screens.
Am sorry, but the link you gave me didn't provide anything i wanna see.
The ratings/reviews are just the same thing we see everyday. Same recycled bullcrap bloggers post every year.
There was no technical details given on those reviews, no technical benchmarks..nada
Just a review of design, customer support, software package, audio/display and notably, innovation.
Which is not something IT guys like you and I wanna see. Those are for regular computer users and not even acceptable by gamers.

That is not what i was expecting to see when you claimed that Lenovo and Asus produce the best motherboards, especially when you term windows into it.

To motherboards, ASUS is doing very well as they are in the top 4. But they're certainly not the best in the market right now.
We have MSI and Gigabyte motherboards leading the pack. We also have ASRock on the front.
In fact, ASUS' leading motherboard, the Sabertooth, runs on AMD chipset. And you know what that means, cos if you're not running on Intel, you're not a friend of windows.

Lenovo is not even close. Even a version of our overpriced Alienware performs better than the best lenovo in the market.
Lenovo has been left behind for basic PC users. I would still chose a Toshiba Qosmio than any lenovo, although not because of the motherboard but of the total package.
A power user wants ruggedity not a 360 degrees turntable.

Lenovo and Asus are much more reliable machines. Asus has been developing high quality motherboards for decades and hardly anything rivals Lenovo's/IBM Thinkpad line of machines for laptops. Lenovo is the enterprise standard.
Ok, i don't really know if you wanna extend this but i would like to know where/how you deduced this info. Any datasheets, research papers, links, technical comparisons or even personal reasons to back this up.

Pls do not hesitate to go technical.
