Buddhanilakantha school has had an advantage over 99% of schools in Kathmandu and rest of Nepal for DECADES. Other schools are jumping on the bandwagon. Let me make a point early on : I got hatred for neither of these schools nor do I speak for either of them.


Personal interactions with several Buddha.. students tells me that whatever the case may be, I highly doubt that they resorted to cheating in order to land those schools. They just knew what counted and worked on making their applications more robust than most applicants in Nepal an even overseas. 


I think its about time this strategy leaked and was picked up by other schools in Nepal. This thread is interesting because this is the first time I hear anybody vocally bring up this issue. What seems to me is that this strategy of BNKS for the longest time was almost exclusive ot the club, apparently other schools are catching up quick and maybe the starter of the thread feels threatened by this.


In any case, cheating should not be promoted and if RBS is doing so then they don't deserve any respect. However, proof of any such act would be necessary.


I am no BNKS or RBS grad, but this thread interests me because of the fact that, like dolphin posted above, information (in Nepal) about how to get to an American University was a mystery when I was a 12th grader in Nepal, internet was rare and the only reliable information(limited and rarely current) was in the American Library, in the form of gynormous books and seminars which made it difficult for the average joe to find much. Let alone know in details about applying early vs. regular apps, full financial aid, extra c. activities, putting up a decent resume or knowing how to get the application fee waived.


Let there be competition and may the best car..err. person win!
