I receive an average of 30 emails daily via my website and Linkedin account.

Most of the questions are around scholarships and migration.

Some even pasted their SOP for me to review. Unfortunately, I do not review SOP for now.
There is no way I can link you with Professors in Economics, Biochemistry and microbiology because it doesn't work that way. That is why I always write and talk about cold email and DIY (Do It Yourself)
Just a reminder that I do not run a consultancy service, so I usually find it odd when people request I reach out to them via Whatsapp. I will be willing to meet you at halfway if you are intentional and determined in this journey.

How to find good references

Copyright-University of Calgary

Graduate school programs typically require two or three references as part of your application package. Some course-based professional programs will require one academic reference and one professional reference.
Each program sets its own criteria for reference letters, so be sure to check its requirements.

It is important to identify these potential references at least one month in advance of applying to graduate programs.
Types of referees
Academic references should be permanent professors on the university’s faculty.
Professional references are individuals you worked with (such as a former employer) who can write positively on your relevant work experience.
