Hi guys,

Great job y'all are doing here!
I finally wrote the GRE after a prolonged wait. I hardly had time to prep for the exam and my scores reflect this (Q161 V149)

I am gunning for a MSc/PhD in Electrical Engineering

Schools of choice:

San Diego State Uni
University of Tennessee
Washington State Uni
Uni of Toledo


My unofficial WES undergrad GPA is 3.71/4.00 Electrical/Electronic Engineering
1 year work experience
No publication

I am a bit afraid about my scores being poor. I would appreciate advise on the choice of schools and any other relevant advice
Thanks guys!

Hello guys,

Tried following the thread from beginning though I skipped some pages

I want to apply for a masters in business analytics in the US

Elect/Elect engineering 4.67/5.00
1yr consulting work experience

GRE: December 2018
TOEFL: January 2019

GRE approach (please help critic this):
AWA - Kaplan & Barron
Quantitative - Barron, Gruber, Nova & Manhattan
Verbal - Gruber & Barron


Schools I am considering are:

Georgia tech
University of Maryland
University of Illinois Chicago
University of California, San Diego

I know I am yet to write the GRE and this may heavily influence the choice of schools but I would appreciate advice on these ones and possibly others I can consider to land full funding. At this point, I just want to have a large pool of options to review.
Target number of applications is three.


Please I am here to learn, every opinion is welcome

I take it as this post is referring to me atm
I am about changing job come next week, though I have done extensive background checks, I still get some eerie feelings and subtle warnings -such as this post - about not changing.
On paper, the new place seems better - according to the research done - but then, these subtle warnings keep coming

I already accepted the offer tho
So any change in position might make me look irresponsible and unreliable
scipy: 4:35am On Nov 07, 2017
finally they've sent mails
congratulations guys
I didn't get any though.
scipy: 9:17am On Nov 03, 2017
LOL right now, nothing will surprise guys anymore

they'd end up losing most of the guys they've spent a lot on trying to bring on board due to this delay/silence like someone rightly said

grin grin You've said it before. 3 weeks turning to 2 Months. Ijeoma at least tried by reaching out but waiting for 2 months to know if you are in or out is poor. They can only console us by taking at least 80% of us cheesy

Lol you mean 100% grin
Cos anyone dropped at this stage after this wait.... it'll take the grace for him/her not to fall into an emotional trauma
A saving grace would be if the person's secured an offer already somewhere else(Which I believe many of those waiting have got already

It took PwC about three months(May 9-July 24) before they gave applicants after the final interview. I think most Nigerian companies have this delay tactics. They thrive on the faulty labour protection system.

I heard about the PWC wait too, but my question is : to what end , why delay that much?
even if they are having some other pressing issues to attend, they could at least send mails after two three weeks so people will know their place
scipy: 6:57am On Oct 21, 2017
this wait is just ridiculous...I expected more from them as a multinational though
scipy: 7:27am On Oct 14, 2017
I've always been afraid of reading stories on here cos I hate to be disappointed (fear of predictable stories in nollywood style) but you've successfully maintained that suspense... it's been thought provoking, stretching my imagination ... I can almost picture these characters and scenarios


more power to it elbow fam!

For those very far, as in very far, the address suggests there is an hotel nearby. Uber is another option.
it's not a wise option if the prices on jumia travel is anything to go by.

people need to plan their lives, and this suspense is making that difficult.

as it stands i think resumption can't even be until the third week of this month and the more the wait, the farther the resumption is
