Thank you very much sir. My question is how do you include Professors you have written to but haven't replied your emails even though their area of research is similar to yours?
Good day sir, i just came across your channel now, i regret not watching these videos before writing my statement of purpose which I'm going to be sending my application on Saturday. Please can you help review for me? Please sir
Thanks a lot for this Prof. I have been watching all the preceding parts on this series. You made mention that it is important to include names and previous interactions with a professor in the chosen department when writing the SOP, but in the video about reaching out to a professor, you said to include a statement of purpose as an attachment to the mail being sent out. How is this going to be possible. Thank you.
Hello, Solomon. This video assumes you are writing your final version of the SoP for your online application. This paragraph in the SoP for cold emails to profs may simply talk about other things like facilities, students you may have discussed with, and/or how the school's environment will be a good fit for your development. Hope this helps.
Hello Dr Babajide, thank you so much for all these videos. I have viewed everyone of them and I have written my statement of purpose. Can you kindly review it for me before I submit it? Thank you
Is the lab an extension/affiliation of the university? Yes, you can talk about it. Many universities have off-campus locations so it is not a big deal.
@@BestmanAcademy Thank you so much sir. Although the Professor is established the lab and she's the Director, it is however in another university. That is what got me confused. She's the department chair of the department I'm applying to.
I don't think there is a universally -agreed number. for me, I'd limit them to 3-4, and make sure that these interests are structured towards what you can get among the faculty of each program you are applying to.
How to proceed depends on how the department admits new students. Is there a requirement to have someone agree to be your advisor before submitting an application? In this case, you'll absolutely need to mention a prof here. If this not the case, you may try to have a chat with a student, or a "successful" alunmi and mention the name here. It's just always better to have the prof's "connection" here. Ultimately, it is your qualifications that will determine your competitiveness for most top programs.
If I received positive feedback from an advisor and was encouraged to apply first to the university, then later upon admission the advisor will consider having me in his lab...is that okay to include in my SOP?
Sure! Something as simple as like: "I recently had the opportunity to discuss my grad school aspirations with Dr. Xyz and he encouraged me to apply to the program." Good luck!
Absolutely! Consider it as an introduction because they would likely be the ones to decide/vote on who to admit into their department. At the very least, ensure you introduce yourself to the graduate coordinator of that department.
Hello good morning, I have watched all the videos on SOP construction and I have ensured to follow the steps and drafted my own. Can I forward the SOP for further review? If yes please drop your email. Sir.

Hello Dr Babajide, thank you so much for all these videos. I have viewed everyone of them and I have written my statement of purpose. Can you kindly review it for me before I submit it? Thank you
I can, if you will be a little patient for the review. Send it to bestmanacademy@gmail.com
Thank you so much for this guide. Is it necessary to contact a professor in my intending department for masters application?
It is highly recommended!

Good day Dr.
Pls,how many research interest should a graduate student input in academic CV?
I don't think there is a universally -agreed number. for me, I'd limit them to 3-4, and make sure that these interests are structured towards what you can get among the faculty of each program you are applying to.
Hello sir please can you help me with my sop
How do I proceed if my cold email was not acknowledged nor replied to even after a follow-up?
How to proceed depends on how the department admits new students.

@@BestmanAcademy thankss
Thank you very much sir, for programs that do not require a supervisor, is it advisable to still reach out to professors in the department?
Absolutely! Consider it as an introduction because they would likely be the ones to decide/vote on who to admit into their department. At the very least, ensure you introduce yourself to the graduate coordinator of that department.
Thank you sir. I am a bit confused though, is this sop just for phD?
You can definitely use this for a Master's SoP.
