My issue is that the man has already been SIMPlified and doesn't seem to have any action plan in place. He only reacts to whatever nurse does. You can see how he attempts to go downstairs, but will always go back up, like a confused puppy.

With the video, he can push his case that it is the nurse who is the threat to everyone in the house.

It is good to know the traditions about a child born outside marriage in the community where the woman comes from especially in igboland, for some the child would bear the name of the grandfather even after the mother marries while others becomes the child of whoever pays the mother's bride price....ask!

How do you explain their floating inside the vehicle?

Van Allen's inner belt begins from 600-1600km above the earth. This flight's maximum altitude was 107km, so they didn't get to that range.

With regards to the Apollo mission, Van Allen's belt doesn't totally envelope the earth. There are some areas of relatively lower radiation above the polar regions. And the spacecraft was structurally reinforced to absorb most of the radiation.

Science/TechnologyRe: Jeff Bezos And Crew Reaches Space Successfully by Tinyemeka(m):
I wonder if Bezos would have been able to set and achieve this target if he was still married to MacKenzie. undecided

P.S. Have gone through the quotes to my post and still couldn't find any valid response to my question, apart from the expected invectives aimed at my intellect and my parents (beats me how the matter concerns them). Those quotes I do not deem worthy of any response.

This is why I asked my question:

Mackenzie Scott (formerly Bezos) holds a B.A in English obtained from Princeton in 1992, is described as an author and has two book titles to her name. She is credited with having assisted Bezos in setting up Amazon and later stepping back to focus on her literary career and family. A career that has produced two books in 2005 & 2013. undecided

Amazon was founded by Bezos in his garage in 1994 and started business as an online marketplace for the sale of books before expanding to include electronics and several other consumer products, web services, food and a whole lot of products and tech/services that the internet behemoth is known for today. It has over 40 subsidiaries in various sectors almost all of which utilize industry-leading web technology to deliver their services.

I'm trying to picture how Ms. Mackenzie with B.A English (no offence intended to our English graduates please) and two novels, features in all of these.

In 2019, Ms. Mackenzie divorced her husband on the grounds of infidelity and walked away with $36Bn worth of Amazon stock. It's now worth $60Bn because of the share price growth, making her the world's richest woman. Barely a year later, she got married to a school teacher. undecided

Blue Origin was founded as far back as 2000. Has been conducting unmanned suborbital and orbital flights since 2015, but every manned flight since 2018 kept being postponed. Bezos gets his divorce and boom, he's moving ahead and has flown to space. I'm trying to imagine the ex-wife's reaction if they were still living together and he came back one night to tell her that he would be flying out of the earth. huh

There are some really gifted individuals that are so driven, family life only hinders true actualisation of their potentials. Someone like Elon Musk who used to sleep at his Tesla office (I think he still does) is just one of so many. Jeff Bezos is another glaring example. It might interest you to know that Bezos isn't even his father's (Ted Jorgensen), but adopted Papa' name. Talk for another day.

I was expecting a reasonable response to my earlier question, but I guess only the irrational ones were the quick to respond. undecided

ModelLook:
Hello guys. How are you all. Please I have a question. I am planning on moving to the UK. I want to apply for an M.Sc in Adult Nursing (Pre Registration) which is a 2 yr Course.

My question goes thus

1) Can the 20 hour per week work be enough to complete Tution for the first year and pay fully for the second year aswell?

2) Can the 20 hour also be enough to cater for Rent, Feeding, Bills and other miscellaneous expenses in UK while studying?

3) I have done my research on cheap universities in UK offering my course but can I apply for scholarship even before applying for admission? Is it possible?

4) Where will you stay when you land in UK? Can you pay for Accommodation from Nigeria especially when you don't know anyone in UK. And how?

4) How much can someone have in his/her Account before coming over to UK before you balance yourself?

5) Self Sponsored Students on a 2 to 3 yrs Course, how do you all cope with studying and working and making sure it doesnt affect your studies in a foreign country.

This particular question 6 is directed to everyone who has an idea about it but particularly to Student Nurses in UK undergoing a B.Sc or M.Sc Course...

6) How is Clinical Practice done?
Is it paid unlike Nigeria where it's unpaid?
Do students get posted to far places for the practice thereby affecting cost of transport?

Please your kind answers is much appreciated.

I'm sorry for the so many questions.

Kindly guide me.
LOL.

You're really doing your research! smiley

I guess we're probably in the same boat because that's part of my plan at the moment.

I'm not enrolled in any program, so I'll be speaking as an Obote and wholly stand to be corrected by those already studying there.

1. Most affordable nursing programs are in the range of £13,500 - £14,500 (see the Universities of Teesside, Derby, Central Lancashire, Coventry, Bedfordshire, etc) per year and the programme runs for 2 years. So it's that tuition per year, for 2 years. You're not exactly going to pay that amount though. How?
- Most of the schools offer an automatic international bursary of £1,000 - £2,000 to applicants from several developing countries including Nigeria

- The UK govt through their NHS, starting Sept 2020 provides a non-means tested annual Training Grant of £5,000 to all students enrolled in some shortage healthcare courses including Nursing.
https://www.nhsbsa.nhs.uk/nhs-learning-support-fund/training-grant
An acquaintance of mine already resident in the UK tells me I cannot access it as my visa when issued, will bear "non-recourse to public funds". I do not believe him though as that particular grant is "non-means tested". You just have to be enrolled in any of the qualifying programs to access the grant.
I stand to be corrected.

- An additional £1,000 is being planned for students enrolled in some critical healthcare courses.
The government website has information about an additional £1,000 a year available to new students. This is only available to new students starting from September 2020. This is to prioritise shortage groups that are key to delivering the NHS Long Term Plan.
The specialist subject payment includes students on courses for:
mental health nursing
learning disability nursing
radiography (diagnostic and therapeutic)
prosthetics and orthotics
orthoptics and podiatry
Combined courses that include one of these shortage courses. For example, adult and mental health nursing, will also qualify for the £1,000 payment.

- There’ll also be a regional incentive payment of up to £1,000. University of Derby has such plans in place.

So if you really wish to be overly optimistic about funding, your calculations on tuition may look like this:
For a student enrolled in Mental Health Nursing (pre-registration) at the University of Derby:
Tuition fee £14,700 less International bursary £2,000 less NHS Training Grant £5,000 less NHS shortage specialist subject payment £1,000 less regional incentive £1,000. Do the maths.
Teesside offers the option of making 7 instalment payments per year. I don't know about Derby.

When you land with your student visa, your working hours is limited to 20hrs per week or 80 per month.

Amazon warehouse pays around £10 per hour (dayshift) and approx £12 per hour (night shifts).
Home care pay around similar figures. Your monthly income from that line should therefore hover in the £800-£900 range.

I'm very sure that some students do work beyond the 20hr/week limit. What types of jobs? I don't know. But I'll gladly appreciate some tips from students resident there.

To answer your No. 1) question, the 20hr/week pay cannot take care of your tuition fees.

If you are married and coming with your spouse, there is no limit on the number of hours your accompanying spouse should work. But you'll have to factor in proof of funds during your visa application, for the accompanying spouse.


2) @SamReinvented posted earlier that his rent (shared flat), utilities and groceries all cost below £500 per month. So if you'll be coming alone, living frugally and studying outside London, your 20hr/week salary can conveniently cover those expenses.

3) Don't have much info about scholarships. Sorry.

4) Previous respondents have advised to land first before paying for accomodation. Schools have halls/residences for students' accommodation. If however you wish to stay outside, it is advisable to book a shortlet like Airbnb, land first and do a site inspection before committing rent payment.

Another 4) That's where they broke everyone's heart. sad
You’ll need to show you have enough money to support yourself - unless you’ve been in the UK with a valid visa for at least 12 months on the date of your application.
How much money you need depends on where you will be studying. You’ll need either:
£1,334 per month (for up to 9 months) for courses in London
£1,023 per month (for up to 9 months) for courses outside London
If you’re boarding at a residential independent school, you’ll need to pay boarding fees instead. The amount you need to pay will be on your CAS.
Additional info:
https://www.gov.uk/student-visa/money
You need to have the Naira equivalent of £9207 + the first year tuition amount stated on your CAS.
This is excluding IHS, visa and other associated fees you'll have to pay.

My calculations are showing £21,808.06, but I refuse to accept that. cry

5. I'll leave that for the nursing students.

6. Of all the schools I've checked, clinicals are unpaid.
Transportation expenses to distant placements can be reclaimed.
https://www.nhsbsa.nhs.uk/nhs-learning-support-fund/travel-and-dual-accommodation-expenses

But I don't know if this falls under the classification of public funds. I doubt that though.

Let me park for now, while we await more responses from nursing students already on ground.

Thanks.

- Do not blow your CAD on new textbooks, you can borrow from the library, talk to existing students and professors, ask about getting older
versions.
- For your courses, if you are facing any challenges, feel free to talk to your academic advisors and professors, you can drop/switch courses.
- Visit the international students' advisors office, attend their parties, make friends!
- Join clubs and societies.
