no offence tara nursing bata gc hune din gai sakey lol

@ alche-kukur is right. Things have changed my friend. Nursing is not as lucrative as it used to be.

alche bro(or sis), nursing and accounting are two completely different fields of studies. These two fields require different kind of personalities, interests and skills. How about you decide what would be better suited for you and base your decision on that. "Good pay ,easy job placement and green card" ta ajha hola,bholi nahola; ke bharosa cha ra. I strongly suggest you to study something that you are interested in ( as cliche as it might sound, it is true) 

I agree with sab_nepaliko_sathi. Nursing and CPA is complete different field. Nursing is the profession where you deal with the life of one living beings. In contrast, CPA is one where you deal with the bills and transaction (I guess). If you have accounting background go after CPA never change your mind with Nursing hoping for GC or easy job placement. Because getting into the Nursing school is not easy and Nursing is not fun unless you don't have passion on this field.  Good luck and take a bold decision.

Green card matra bhanera kunai subject ko pachi lagera faida chaina. jun kurama bhitra dekhi man lagcha tehi garne ho. dunt run after gc, make it run towards u!!!

If you are not really into it, it may be just a hurdle for you as someone pointed out. It is you what you can do it as well you enjoy it, it should be normal as your part of live while you are at work but not as a burden. Then instead of excelling you will be heading opposite direction.

So, it is you what you can do best and enjoy it.

I do remember that every family were pushing us to go to science but they did not try to find out what I am interested in. But some how we kids needed to be pushed and help to make right decision but that will not be always true. 

Alche,

You can sponsor youself once you get a CPA license from the state. Don't tak my word for it, contact an immigration lawyer.

u_day...what you said is not true. You have been misinformed.

Nowadays it is hard to find nursing job in OPT......Even if you find one, you can only work for the duration of your OPT... You can not apply for H1b or green card....So whatever you heard is not true  nowadays....

job market of US changes every 3-4 years. back in early 2000 IT was really strong, then around 2004 because of IT consultancies it got really difficult and only way to get into it was through the same blood sucking consultancies, around that time Accounting and Finance seemed really good field of studies because they were always stable, then then come around late 2007 they crashed so bad that you all know. now it has come to the point where accounting majors see no point of going to school. I heard a commercial on local radio the other day, it goes something like this, "hello kids, this is mr. XXX and he's an accountant , today he's going to tell us what he does as an accountant. Accountant: thank you msXXX , hello kids, my name is XXX i am an accountant and i pass around resumes. So please take my resume and give it to your parents." the commercial was run by some job hunting agency. So if you chase after the market in the US you never know where you'll end up. but if you are good at anything and if luck favors you you will get good career one day. so the folks up there are right , go after what u like, not where green card is. and now a days , looks like everyone's going after nursing, who knows what's there for nursing tomorrow with new health care plan or foreign quota. 

What is CPA? is it Crap of Professional Accounting ? Huh...
