Shushant bro,

Please think about your decision. US is not a place to come and study Undergraduate (unless you are very rich and can bring money from Nepal every year). Looking at the data I find 10% people doing good academically among those who come to study Undergraduate.

It is not worth it. Stay in Nepal, study Bachelors there. There are great colleges there. You can come for Masters in few years if you really want to come here. Life would be so much easier for you and you will do great.

Talking about be, I finished my plus 2 about 9 years back. I was one of the top 10 students in NIST ( among 800 people). But I wasted a year to apply and come here. I finally came here with big dreams and very high expectations. It was nothing like that within a year. Working 30 40 hours and taking 15-18 hours a semester is not a joke. It takes toll physically, mentally and socially. I miss my relatives, parents and a beautiful country I left behind. I look at pictures of my friends in Nepal, they might not be driving cars, they might be struggling to get a liter of petrol, struggling to get power 8 hours a day but that is a good life. When you are with your loved ones and you have a place to live, and a good meal, that's the best thing in the world. I have been 7 and half years and all of those years have been in pain.

Take it as a brotherly advice. I BLOCKED my own sisters intention to come to US and she is happy doing BE in Nepal and almost done. I and people like me who are telling you here just want you to have a easy life, just want you to be with your family and friends, just want you and our younger generations to do good in life. We are here doesn't mean we are making a fortune or happy in life.

I am returning to Nepal soon (permanently) and who knows may be I will see you there?
