Thanks for your response and it's well appreciated.

Is there a particular time the slot for scheduling appointment(s) shows up I have been trying to book as it keeps showing unavailable and try again at regular intervals?

Hi Nairalanders,

I will be glad for your assistance with regards to when is appointment schedule for the short-term visa as I have been trying since last week and keep getting this response.

Also, is the arrangement for a "walk-in-interview" or "special appointment" for someone going for a summer training program with an invitation letter?

Thanks

Please try read that site again. This is not visa application fees but for documents legalisation or verification

Is this required for a short visit visa for Summer School?

Hi all,

I would like to ask if need to do document verifications for Summer School in Germany. Also, I got this message "Unfortunately, there are no appointments available at this time. New appointments will be made available for booking at regular intervals. " when booking visa appointment.

I will be glad for your reply and suggested procedures.

Current situation:

GPA: 4.05/5 ( 3.45/4 WES unofficial) wrote GRE in May and scored 301 and a month later scored 303.

GRE: Q:157 V:146 AWA:3.0

No toefl score...I am thinking there are schools that would consider my profile without toefl scores since It's mathematics.

Intending to apply for masters or direct phd (preferred) in Mathematics with Full or with partial funding with TA or GA.

Please kindly advice: what schools would likely accept fit this profile....I would be very grateful.

Thank you all.

Congratulations

What's the interval between the two exams? On the bright side you improved, indicating that you can keep improving for a much better competitive score. If you're willing to give it another try, send a message and I can help with some of the current editions of GRE prep material ebooks.

For techniques towards improvement, endeavour to keep a log of question types you struggle with and practice more on improving on those areas. Also, don't register for the test before preparing so you don't add more pressure on yourself.


I'm also a borderline 2:1 so I understand how i
uphill it might seem holding up against competition. Since you cannot change your GPA, focus on what you can do to improve your profile like acing the GRE, and getting strong recommendations and SOP. You might want to consider taking the subject GRE if possible

There's an art to contacting them, especially when nothing really stands out about your profile so if it's going to be generic, don't bother; well you could always try, but you would most likely be ignored. Quoran has a number of posts about this.

I doubt there's any program with funding that isn't very competitive and increasing in the no. of applicants. Let it serve as your motivation and take solace in the fact the STEM fields are less competitive than non-STEM ones. There's always that chance for you to get in.

Prepare to take the GRE again and see how it goes, aim for fall '20 as well, in-between take up roles like teaching, research, conference etc anything that would improve your profile and application


Don't we all feel inadequate? You'd be surprised how many elite scientists feel the same. Even our brother here with 8 publications and top 1% GPA was quite unsure about his prospects. So don't worry, it's normal. Let this your achievement be emphasised in your SOP as this actually indicates you are capable of doing research, essentially what admissions look for in a candidate.


Don't know about schools but you might want to start looking at Gradcafe for funding info with your GPA range in addition to suggestions you would get here.

You'll be fine, you are in a good place for insights. Best of luck in your endeavour and welcome.

Hi
If you are in Lagos and you don't mind
I'm looking for a study partner for my GRE
Especially on Saturdays

Which part of Lagos are you residing?

webymap@gmail.com


Thanks in advance

Time2win:


I'm telling you out of experience. If you like go and spend all the money you have on application fees, i see you have so much money. Infact, all the schools I got full funding from were free application. I can count 10 schools that waived my application fee.

It would be nice if you can share the names of these schools with us. Thanks in advance

Thanks very much for your kindness, I have received it.

Kindly forward to webymap@gmail.com

LadunaI:


Thumb up bro... thanks

Kindly forward to webymap@gmail.com

Quick one, if one works with a school and decided to resign during their vacation period after being engaged for the first week of the month of vacation, is his/her salary exit package based on the days worked or the monthly agreement?

More so, if it's based on days worked, will the calculation be in hours of engagement?

Your contribution is highly appreciated

Where do you reside?

peak115:
. 28k is small.I know someone that spends 2k every day as transport fare. Multply that by 22 workin days in a month equal to 44k

Is he residing in Ikorodun and working in Ajah?

kolaa007:
Take the bus going to cms then from cms you get a bus going to vi. Or you ho and take boat. But me the boat is a bit scary

Going by bus cost how much for to and fro?

kolaa007:
If you stay in ikorodu there is serious traffic on the road. Am enjoying the view from the blue brt. If you driving to work sorry. If not try the blue brt this morning.

How do you transport yourself to offices in VI?

I stay in Lagos, and by God's grace my rent is 9.7% of my annual take home.

Where in Lagos and location of workplace if you mind?

uscofield:
The best shot is, don't live in a house that is above your two (2) months take home salary.
It works like aboniki.
It pays no one to pay heavily on rent and not own your own house.
Open your eyes ooooooo.

What's about transportation?

1000 * 20 * 12 = 240,000

hazyfm1:


This is a very logical question, In Lagos you either choose to spend on accommodation or transportation.

Both have their pros and cons, but I always advise people spend on accommodation, rather than spend more on transportation.
Reasons being that:
1. Life is short, why live in Iyana ipaja/ Aboru/ Abule Egba and work in VI ? When you can live in Surulere
2. Why spend N1000-N1500 on transportation daily when you can spend less than N500?

This is the challenge am having right now. I have been staying in the north for awhile and I am contemplating on moving back to Lagos but I am having issues with residency and transportation considering proximity to place of work.
