CelebritiesFast And Furious' Star Tyrese Breaks Down In Tears At Paul Walker Crash Site by Walspring(op): 11:15pm On Dec 02, 2013
Tyrese Gibson was overcome with grief Sunday afternoon when he showed up to the crash site where his "Fast and Furious" co-star Paul Walker died less than 24 hours before.

Tyrese paid tribute to Walker during a quick stop at the Santa Clarita crash spot moments ago ... the same place fans are leaving tons of flowers and various tokens in honor of Walker.

Gibson is clearly falling apart while visiting the death site ... and everyone around him is completely silent while he mourns.

Tyrese took a piece of the crash wreckage home with him and posted a pic of it online afterward.

do u share the same surname with your boss? If so u can claim that he is ur baba. Lol

You can claim that your boss is your uncle and you need to tell VO why your uncle is sponsoring you and will spend that kind of amount on you alone.

abbey621: This is what I hate about Nigerians, mixing apples and oranges in order to make a point. Bro stop it! Her result says not available, it never said canceled or invalid. I told you I called ETS and spoke to someone in charge, as of now, they are currently reviewing all scores from Nigerian test takers over the last few months. Until ETS informs my friend that the result is not valid or informs the school, I refuse to be drawn into mere speculation, you have no authority on this matter, your opinion while noble remains nothing but an opinion until you call ETS yourself and verify things, don't call me confused, I find that very insulting!
You still making a fool for yourself cos people are laughing ooo and still yet you still dont understand why i keep saying is equal to zero for now

Her result say not available....
ETS told you they are currently reviewing all score....
ETS told your friend that result is not valid.....

the 3 statements above can shows that is equal to zero over 100 for now until the results were available and valid.

Can someone with not available result and no longer valid gain admission ahead of someone whose result is available and valid even those he apply for admission?

This is all about reasoning and dont think am speculating cos i cant imagine 2 people calling ETS and at the end they cant reason together with the girl whose result say not available and you can still say not available and no longer valid is not equal to zero..

Bro abeg reason and dont think am insulting you in-order words i said apple is equal to fruit and u didnt agree with me. I also said oranges are equal to fruits and u still dont agree with me.. Can u please tell me a general name u will call apple and oranges if u dont want to use their names or another language to call them ? Wont u call them fruits?

I wonder alot about you and why you still dont reason that not available and no longer valid is equal to zero for now until it is valid and available when it will be above zero...

If you are a project you will be hard to bind...
If you are cassette you will be hard to rewind...
If you are a bike you will hard to ride...
If you are a car you will be hard to drive...

Anyway sorry if you think my words serve as insult to you.. but you haven't answer this my question ooo '' When something is said is no longer valid how will you rate it in your your score? Are u giving no longer valid 1 over 100 mark or 5 over 100 marks or which marks will you award for it?''

N.B------ A result can only be valid if its available and if its not available is equal to zero for the moment until its available the result is said to be above zero and be called valid

jcaribie: is a yellow card important? n whts it for?
Yes is important oo.. Didnt u hear that South Africa goverment sent some Nigerians back to Nigeria due to yellow card issues some years ago?

Yellow card is a card that is used to record some tests/disease such as yellow fever etc. That's all what i can say and remember ooo pls dont mind me.
TravelRe: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part5 by Walspring: 3:55pm On Nov 29, 2013
abbey621: Bro slow down, let's take it a step at a time. Firstly, if a result was canceled it is an automatic zero, the schools and candidates are sent notification of this. If a result is under review or not available that means there's still hope that it can be released, you cannot say such a score is invalid or zero.

Furthermore, remember I said each person should do what is best for him or her! In my friend's case, her official score report was sent to her chosen institution and they made a decision based on that, until ETS informs them that the result is no longer valid, I have no reason to doubt its validity.

Lastly, opinions are different from FACTS, most of us are guilty of mistaking one for the other, each candidate affected by this should call ETS or email them at tsreturns@ets.org if in doubt or confused. May God help us all!
Bro stop confusing urself about unavailable and no longer valid.

Tell me did ETS used unavailable or no longer valid for your friend result?

Since you said ETS said its no longer valid cant u see that it means zero for now? It will only be above zero until it is vaid so as for me anything that is no longer valid or unavailable is equal to zero until it is available and valid to be above zero

If i may ask have ETS contact your friend's school and told the school that the result is no longer valid?

When something is said is no longer valid how will you rate it in your your score? Are u giving no longer valid 1 over 100 mark or 5 over 100 marks or which marks will you award for it?
Am Sorry For this example cos dis aint politics thread.

Why cant inec announce winner in anambra election afterall some local goverment result was under review and not available since they didnt vote and due to election misconduct in that local governmen. Cant u see that inec placed those place to be zero for now until after they conduct election there and add the results to those results they have with them

I hope u will understand why i said is equal to zero for now.. Anyway dont forget to answer my questions pls..

jcaribie: Ai bro, thanks. Luckily for him, he wrote SAT as well. And he has the score card for that too.
Since he wrote SAT he can take that along as the only test he did provided he meet the cut off for the school he applied to. Some school require 450 upward for SAT result/score on each sections.

Tell him not to worry and he should just disappear for God to appear during his interview and the VO will be smiling and just ask 3 questions from him and he will be granted visa TAKE NOTE... Lol
TravelRe: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part5 by Walspring: 3:04pm On Nov 29, 2013
abbey621: Bro I get your point, but what does that have to do with visa interview, when the VO asks did you write any standardized exams? Would you say no I did not or would you say I did and I have the copy of the official score report sent to my university? Visa interviews are all about the ability to express oneself. Sir there's a difference between a canceled result and result not currently available due to reevaluation. I personally called ETS, spoke to one of the supervisors and she explained that this is a widespread issue and that they are still working on it, so I don't know where you got your idea of zero from.

Mr. Walspring, lack of standardized test will not be the sole reason a candidate is ineligible for visa, if you heard otherwise, you heard wrong! God surely helps those who help themselves, it's all about confidence, I just hate people being scared for no reason, my advice is simple, do whatever you feel is best for your situation!
Bro u havent tell me the difference between result cancel and result not available? Pls state the differene cos i wish to know cos a result cancel means zero although it can still be release later in future while not available is still zero although it can still be release later in future and both are still grade as zero over 100 which is not useful for now until it is release or available.

I didnt say test is sole reason of giving visa maybe u didnt grab my point where i stated someone can be qualify for visa but still not elligible for visa i think u should read one of justwise post on one of the UK thread during his early days on nairaland.

Can someone use unavailable result to gain admission now? Cos there are some people who did toefl a month ago and want to use the result to gain admission, will they tell the school to use the print out he/she printed out since ETS is doing review? Maybe this example will let u know why i said result cancelled and result unavailable is equal to zero.

Maybe u dont know that ETS can still go further to tell those schools that a result sent to disregard it due to the outcome of their review which tagged the person for exam misconduct/fraud/malpractise and the school will obey?

My brother lets look for a way forward rather for us to learn from each other which is the best thing and remember everyone opinion is either useful to someone or useless to somone
TravelRe: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part5 by Walspring: 2:43pm On Nov 29, 2013
jcaribie: thnx bro. another thing is, should he say it before he hands the test scores to the VO, or should he say it, only when he is asked why his result cannot be viewed?
As for me i will say it immdiately VO ask me if i take any test and my reply will be yes i did and i printed the result out 3 months ago which is september..... Blah blah blah...

So if VO ask why result not available now, u can say It was due to ETS review on recent test and u noticed that some weeks ago and u thought maybe the embassy is aware of their review and so on after saying that then u smile.

pablo excobar: Its possible for d VO to have direct access to ETS dat will help dem make a decision about a possible score card, its possible dat ETS has evaluated d testing centers and brought out d ones wit high rate of irregularities and may be d VO is aware. Mind u dat d VO are very smart and has access to some datas dat re of high security and dere re giving all neccessary information to perform dere duty actively. So one wit d score card shud go wit it. And d person shud ve 2 forms of answers for his score card. One of d answers shud be to defend his score card if its not verified and d 2nd shud be on how to defend d score card if VO verifies it which is even better and advantageous. Mind u VO won't Kill u or just Deny u bcus he or she could not verify it. They re aware of wats hapnen and dere are professionally trained.
You said it all and which is the sumarry of what i said earlier that he should think of a way to tell VO what he notice after he printed out his result rather than arguing here..

Thanks bro!

jcaribie: bro, anyone who wrote the test in the last four months have had their scores termed as "unavailable". question is, for those who still have hard copies of their test scores, and who have their interviews next week, what do they do/say about it, esp to the vo? definitely, u cant say u didn't write the test, and obviously you don't go on and on telling the vo about ETS' recent action. So it's either they submit the test scores or not. hope u understand sha... its not an easy decision to make.
I will advise them to tell VO that i wrote the test some months ago and i printed out my result then but for some weeks now i have issues in checking the result online again due to ETS review on the recent tests.

By saying that VO already knew what ETS was doing and VO will believe u rather than lieing cos if VO notice lies that will not make VO to favour or grant someone visa cos there are some VO who grants visa immediately they noticed that applicant is telling them the truth.

Lastly lets pray for God's unmerited favour which matters most.
TravelRe: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part5 by Walspring: 2:16pm On Nov 29, 2013
abbey621: Bros no one is saying that they won't verify but you can't be accused of fraud for a genuine test. There's a difference between scores canceled and scores not available. The VO cannot accuse someone of fraud if the person truly took the test. But each person to their own, it's all about confidence. Even the visa officers are now aware of what's going on between ETS and Nigeria, so a simple explanation such as " I only have the copy sent to me by my school or I only have the online print out" will do. It's still way better than telling the VO, "I did not take any test" shocked shocked shocked
If the test were genuine why would ETS declared administrative reviews on toefl and gre? Cant u see that ETS noticed fraud or malpractise on these exams cos i dont know why u are still arguing cos result cancelled is equal to zero and result not availble is equal to zero. So can you state the differences on both since they are equal to zero? Because i dont know how to spot differences on both ooo.

Instead you should rather be thinking of what u will tell VO if u are being ask why is your result not available online anymore or u should be praying that VO should not ask ur toefl result print like that guy on this thread who scored very low in gre and the VO didnt ask for his result print out and he was granted visa.

FYI the VO all knew why ETS is doing administrative review concerning toefl and gre but ETS still believe that not all people who sat for this exams are guilty which is a normal thought but they are doing this to seperate the innocent from the guilty and VO does not accuse applicants for fake documents

Havent u read of someone who is qualified for visa but not still elligible to be issue visa? My brother lets pray for God's unmerited favour during visa interview and lets stop arguing pls..

You got a nice score for your standardize test. But i will advise you to go to the interview with your parent in your next interview since the VO told you that he/she cant give you VISA unless your parent come along with you.

I think the VO wants to ask your parents some vital question such as where they work, how will they pay for your school fee and so on.

Lastly you need prayer and pray for God unmerited favour and mercy which i always pray for everyday cos prayer is the key to successful visa interview
