  1. PLese provide me with answers to following Qs , I'll defintely chip in later ! 1)Which Indian Univ ? 2)Does your univ calculate GPA or you calculated it yourself ? 3)Expected GRE , TOEFL scores?(Avg scores you r getting in practise tests) 4)Any specialization i mind ?
  2. I voted for GAtech ! ...but why [:hmm:] ?
  3. I call it SPAMMER [:p] ! I would have echoed her if that missiongre to be proved helpful to fellow TMians but i found it crap !
  4. It's been 4 weeks and he's expecting a verdict anytime now !
  5. Please accept my sincere apology "asad" for presuming something wild. I am sorry.
  6. I smell a false advertising in all this.Even i am seeing this advertisement stuff here for last few weeks.Erin should look into this.I would ask/request him to handle this.THere are 4-5 IDs which i suspect are the case of "multiple ids".Well, authorities shall look into this further.
  7. No you are wrong ! I have 5 PhD seniors working in AI at PSU . Though financial aid is tough to crack their everything is good there
  8. Ok got your situation. First and foremost important thing.From above all description i have a impression that you are in the case where your mother/father have multiple marriages (I apologise if i am blatently preduming it.) . Most importanylt you can not hide your brothrs from VO in any case because i see they are your REAL brothers and you have to mention it in the DS forms.So keep it simple.Even if yours is the case which i have presumed , you will have to mention the brothers in DS becuase from VO's perspective / from USA's perspective they are your real brothers. Showing rosy picture is certainly which i never do.You have to work really hard on ya visa because you have US based sponser who is F1 to H1 . How do you plan to show your ties with homecountry is the most crucial thing. Always better to talk about old parents and you will be taking care of them along with the property. Highlight the point that your brother is coming back to pakistan after his F1 IF NEEDED which just prove in your favour. following are the few tricky/followup Qs i feel you really need to preapare well 1)Will you come back? 2)Why your brother did not come back after his F1 ? 3)if your brother did not come how should i trust that you will come back?
  9. One of my friends story. His name is Mohammad Khatum , Ntionality Indian , born in Dubai and native thr for 13 yrs later shfted to Pune n staying these till now.His visa is out under 221[g] because : 1)His name matched a most wanetd by FBI 2)His DOB matched a most wanted by FBI How coinicdent is that..... sheer bad luck !
  10. Please tell me what's the exact relation you have with them.I mean they are son of...... ?
  11. I AGREE ! I AGREE ! Dude i was high on luck really. 99 out of 100 cases like me will get a stright reject in Mumbai consulate. I wish to put my own analysis here whihc i thought on the night of my visa day after coming home with high on alcohol (yea plz don't be shocked, i can think after boozing :p ) 1)My body language , i feel this is most important in the consulate.I was very confident while doing formalities in the consulate. Smiling at all the officials , tight from the security gurads to the person who helps in aranging the docs , lady who guides for fingerprinting , beautiful lady who takes the finrgerprints.I was greeting each n every one of them in the consulate.That gave me some kinda "speaking" practise,a little confidence 2)Confidence , this is most important.VOs just chek how confident you are while answering. Your confidence the reflection of transperence you have in your documents and hence VOs do not ask for documents. 3)Presence of mind , next most important thing. If you fumble you are lost. Here is the thing which i think where i made a little mistake ~ i should not have stressed n said that family is living in USA for last 30 years,instead a simple answer like "maternal family living there" should have sufficed. ~ One thing which worked against me is definitely a trip sponsered by my family in USA.But that's the fact which i can not change as my father can not prove his income was that great to sponser a USA trip for 2 months for 4 persons.And hence i had nothing to do but to say the truth. ~ I am a person with a huuuuuuuuuuuge interest in philosphy and hence worked in a way i call "emotional blackmailing" to VO as far as Qs related to immigration are concerned.This could have worked against me as many people told me to not to be the philosophical in consulate like i always do because VOs hate it. Relatives in US creates a problem in a sense that VOs think that your relatives are already in USA for so-so many years and earning good then *that* relative of yours will help you in immigrating .

  13. had a VI schedulled today @ Mumbai consulate at 8:15Am slot.And this how it went. Helluva experience ! VO: Gooood morning sir ME: Very good morning Officer ! VO: Why have you been to USA so many times? ME: Sir, my maternal family lives there since last 30 years and my family was invited by the cousins of mine on their graduation days. VO: Who sponsered your trip? ME: Majority of the expenses were taken care by my family in USA along with my father VO: I feel you will immigrate ME: Absolutely no sir, i am the only son pf my parents and i need to take care of them in their old days.Also my family own a proeprty worth $XYZ which i will need to take care of later. VO: Show me your father's passbooks ME: Here are they sir. VO: What is your father and how much he earns per annum? ME: Sir, he is Excexutive Board member of the XYZ and earn $XYZ per annum. VO: I still feel you will immigrate but ...... ME: Sir, it's all about taking care of my parents and the property ehich they have earned over last 40 years which i feel is my utmost implrtant responsibilty over my shoulders. VO: Ok sir , i am granting you the visa. ME: Thanks for trusting me sir.have a great day ! No details about the university, no document except passbooks, no routine questions which we generally get to read on forums.I was shivering literally but managed to convice the VO well.This was helluva experience for me and i just wanna thank to my parents who made this day possible for me ! Thanks Mom..thanks pappa !
  14. Well following are precise answers ! Frankly there is nothing you can do.It's just sheer luck you must have to crack it.Above bundle of reasons are absolutely enough to conclude that you are a potential immigrant.
  15. "The Alchemist"... I am not into books much except technical ones but some one suggested me this.Interesting though.
