As the days goes by my life is also moving on the same pace. People say that there is always a good and a bad times which makes us look into the future in more hope for the betterment, but it totally depends on one, sometimes we get frustrated and depressed with the present and try to work to find a path to cure that symptoms but for some they just lack confident and motivation which result in a fear to face the future. The biggest strength that one can have when living far from the family is friends which cannot be ignored at all, this small synopsis explains my life.

 

It all started when I was completing my bachelor degree back home in KTM, looking at the political, economical crisis of the country and the lack of opportunities, that to grow and to be successful in the future I must complete my study abroad. Most of my friends where talking about US, India, Australia and UK for the further studies, I did my research to a limit and then talking with my close friends about their future plans, most of them had the same place to go US, which started making me to think about it. Decisions are important and it should be taken in a precise manner so that you know what you want to be. I did not want to go to an unknown place where I will miss most of my friends with whom I spend three memorable years of studies. They supported me to make the decision for doing a MBA in US, so with their support and family I decided that is it.

 

I did not have any idea about how life is in US, as in my family and relatives no one have ever been to US, but I knew that it is difficult to survive each and every day. US a place of opportunities and if a person is a hard-worker he/she can be successful. So without looking further back me and my friends started preparing for GMAT and TOEFL, started looking for colleges and brainstormed on the documents and financial position that we need to have to get the biggest hurdle of the life so called VISA.

 

The biggest disadvantage that we had was our bachelor degree was only for three years, and to get accepted in good colleges we at least need a four year degree, so we start looking for college that accepts three years, while looking for a college one of my friend in US recommended to go through a consultant that he went through, so I talked with the so called CEO of that consultant and he convinced me with a loads of crap, which most of us easily falls on.

I will keep on posting with my US journey
