I've been thinking that one could tell if there's any movement on his case if his referees get contacted. So if your referees receive mails on your matter you're probably on the list.

No, I've not asked my referees if they've been contacted. Just guessing out loud.

I also join maxi505 in asking for screenshots. Lol

Let me just chip in on my experience with regards to awards.

I did not have any National Awards but I had some other awards which I did not take for the UK interview. At the interview the man interviewing me asked if I had any National Awards and I said no. He then asked if I won anything in my "department at University" or at "anytime in the course of my education", which I had won but couldn't present.

It depends on the interviewer and I have learned not to foreclose any thing, it is better it is rejected.

Perhaps nobody has been contacted yet. I think application for UK MSc in many universities would be closing by the end of the week (if they have not closed) so updates will start flying in soon.

I didn't say i got information from anywhere.
Anyways, after my UK interview I asked the lady who called me in for the interview when we were going to be contacted, and she told me by the end of May. That's the most reliable info I've got.
But I'm just saying we make information a bit more available here. That's all. Let's just be hopeful

I also agree with your thoughts, from my observations many of the UK schools have their deadline for applications set to early June. So most likely PTDF would have been through with the applications on our behalf by the end of May or even possibly gotten Admissions since some schools give admission in 10 days.

Just my humble speculations anyway. God will see us through.

Dear students,

We learned from the French embassy that you have been awarded a PTDF Master scholarship to study in Grenoble, France.
To proceed, we need to be sure of the master (in chemistry) you want to obtain.
Here is the link:
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
then click on Programs

Then, we will need your transcripts of records, your CV and a cover letter.

My problem is that those contacted are not even sharing with us on this platform. Are you sure they aren't ghost applicants? I trust nairalanders, testimonies of such contacts would been all over the thread.

I had my MSc interview today. I had it good. It was centred around my SoP *Why do I want to do an MSc? * Why did I select the course? *What is my greatest achievement? *How will it impact the oil and gas industry
They asked for publication and awards specifically. I pray it all works out for the best.

His stuffs where almost unique.

You would argue it is David Guetta's or The One Direction.

Good producer gone!

This is my favourite of his piece.



"The Nights"

Hey, once upon a younger year
When all our shadows disappeared
The animals inside came out to play
Hey, went face to face with all our fears
Learned our lessons through the tears
Made memories we knew would never fade

One day my father—he told me,
"Son, don't let it slip away."
He took me in his arms, I heard him say,

"When you get older
Your wild heart will live for younger days
Think of me if ever you're afraid."

He said, "One day you'll leave this world behind
So live a life you will remember."
My father told me when I was just a child
These are the nights that never die
My father told me...

My favorite too. I played the song over and over again when I heard he died. I felt better. The song makes a lot of sense now

Politics / Re: 2019 Presidency: APC, PDP's Chances In Six Geopolitical Zones by theSpark(m): 10:41am On Apr 03, 2018
Depends on who the contender in PDP is. Should it be RMK or Lamido then:
NW - 65% APC 35% PDP (bandits reign supreme in some parts causing loss of faith in APC)
NE - 65% APC 35% PDP (Bauchi, Borno and Yobe being the strongest APC bases)
NC 35% APC 65% PDP (Only Niger State is sure, Kwara goes where Saraki goes)
SW 50%-50%
SE 15% APC 85% PDP (this may do little to counter APC dominance in the North if there is voter apathy)
SS 15% APC 85% PDP

The election is for PDP to win if they can convince the SE and SS to come out en masse to vote. Perhaps an Igbo Vp will do. If not APC will win with a slim margin.
