  1. hi, i am from bangladesh. i had my F1 visa interview on 21st may. VO told me that after completing 'administrative processing' they will contact me to provide visa. more than a month has passed but i haven't been contacted yet. my class will start from 4th September. guys, how long it might take to get my visa? do u have any idea? FYI, in many cases of my friends they completed 'administrative processing' within a week. am i just being unlucky or there is something else?

  14. OSU has offered me admission in phd CS. I am now waiting for their financial aid decision. Anybody else accepted in OSU ( Phd CS)?

  16. Hi guys, OSU has offered me admission for phd in CS for fall 2007. They are now considering about financial aid. Maybe they will let me know later. I am just curious if anybody of you can tell me about the likelihood of offering financial aid. Without aid I will not survive a day. Short piece of info..if it helps..toefl 273(reading-30, listening - 24, structure-28, writing-5.5)..gre(1450, V-650, W-4.0). Thanks.
  17. 1. Take a sample test. No matter how hard it seems finish it. 2. Take 2 days to analyze the questions from the taken practice exam. Try to understand what they like to ask and your strengths and weaknesses. 3. Read from undergrad CS books. I don't think there are better preparation materials than those books. But you have to understand where you have to concentrate and where you can just skim through. 4. Use this forum to get materials like practice tests and suggestions.
  18. Today I have received the official score letter. 52 correct answer - 12 incorrect = 49 counted, 820 (85%). Those who still haven't got their score this info might help to predict their score. Good luck.
