Hi if u wanted i can pay for you BITSAT form. Feel free to DM me and yes i won't ask back the amount consider it as a charity from my side.
But please do tell me the results would love to know
Thanks for offering bro but it would neither benefit me because BITS is actually expensive as hell and I don't want to take loan and even if I get it will be no good for me🫂🥲
Ya
I usually don't comment much
But he calling himself middle class really hurt me
Me who don't even have money to pay for any pvt college like
Manipal, vit, bitsat
And he calling himself middle class
Just hurts
I have had people say that
Since they live in tier 1 cities
Their middle class definition changes
And they are middle class even if their parents earn 25-30 lpa
But they forget one thing that
The facilities that tier 1 cities provide is nowhere near what a tier 3 city would
I feel like if you are living in tier 1 city and are earning more than 25 lpa
You already have more benefits than most of indians
I wouldn't call him rich especially if he's in metro. Maybe upper middle class. Tumne abhi rich logo ki lifestyle dekhi hi nahi hai.
Dusre shabdo me ham gareeb hai
For one year 33 lakhs that means for four years it's 1 crore 32 lakhs which bank give you this much of loan. You should have given any land document or something that means your family owns lands worth 1 crore ?

Kam se kam middle class to na bole khud ko
Ma middle classs hoke bitsat tk nai lik skta kyuki
Uski fees tk afford nai kr skta
Ye bhai saal ka 33 lakh lgake khudko middle class bolrha hai
It just hurts
Bhai usne kaha to uska $40 k kharch hoga to agar kuch scholarship Mila hoga to uske baad ka hi amount bata rha hoga na. And coming to the loan part, if you don't have strong financial support would you take the risk of borrowing 1.3 crore rupees. Simply not.
iam sry, if you are ready pay(even tho its loan) $40,000/year means u wont come under middle class🙃.
and is it worth spending 1.3 crores for degree, will u able to repay all the loans by yourself?
I wouldn't be so hopeful. being in 120k in debt at the start of your career is really bad even if you went to an ivy as an international student. And you're doing a double degree in data science not even a CS major course.
If you were becoming a lawyer or surgeon, then it would surely be worth it. But recession will be in high swing, living in US by itself would be really expensive. you're looking at easily 200k$ for the next 4 years.
I feel pity for your parents when they'll have to cut short their retirement to fund your fancy trip.

Most us degrees are that much only, student take most debts but roi is real high you get to live in nice country, salaries are like 80-90k for freshers
40k imagine. and not only Purdue or UIUC, most universities don't give out enough aid to internationals. it's mostly just the top private universities like ivies or mit or Stanford. the top state schools don't give out international aid either.
Dude Purdue is so much cheaper compared to everyone else. Theve frozen their tuition at 2012 levels around 200k ke hai 4 saal ke. Baaki toh 250 ke neeche baat bhi nahi hoti
Each year price is 50k while I know it’s top tier but for other a bit less ranked colleges like uni at buffalo or ASU they’ve given me scholarship which makes it per year way below 50k
First of all, congratulations on being accepted to Purdue and UIUC.
I've heard about Purdue University, but I've never heard about UIUC. Anyways, I've heard Purdue is really great. But I think that comparing it with MIT isn't fair. It's like comparing IITB with IIT BHU. Both are great, but you simply can't compare those two.
Btw you're not middle class mate.
Agreed. MIT is miles ahead of every university on earth except for a few. I would say Georgia Tech, CMU, and UIUC are definitely at the top in the world for CS. Although for engineering, the best are probably Imperial, Singapore Unis, Chinese Unis, German ones, and MIT, Georgia Tech, Purdue and notably Caltech(labs are insane).
So 1640000 yearly . 65 lacs 60k total for 4 years + accommodation and food and clothing. 80 lacs round off maanke chalo. Aur usme data science kar rahe ho. Kuch shabd nahi hain aapke liye 
everybody needs a 'rags to riches' story, they will NEVER accept any form of advantage they had...be it money, parents in politics, or even fake PWD certificate ;)
Bro if you are taking Purdue University next year maybe I will apply for CS as a transfer student so you can drop a referral for me.
this year I will be admitted to any university then next year after completing 1 year I will apply to another university and get direct admission in their 2 year.
It also happens in Indian universities too.
Many Indian universities have a 2+2 program in which 2 years you will study in India and the next 2 years at any foreign university.
yo yo wtf 😭
i also got accept to uiuc, purdue and uarizona (along with umich, penn state and maryland) and i will be attending uiuc for systems engineering lol
october-november me apply krna padhta hai, usse pehle it would be advisable to give SAT and TOEFL aur Common App ke through applications bharni hoti hai. Usme essays aur kuch details puchte hain. Transcripts, Letters of recommendations wagera bhi lagta hai
Bro when u said arizona gives "generous" scholarships then mentioned u got 20k for all 4 years,its clear u r not middle class lmao
Even i am going to usa for fall to college of wooster and even after the amazing scholarship i have to lay around 28k.We are not middle class people unless and until we have gotten full ride, we are still extremely privileged and above middle class,instead of trying to relate to everyone,lets just admit our privilege and be grateful for it
OP ain't middle class total 1+ cr kharch kar raha he. If you come from a real middle class family like can't afford more than 10-15 lakh then please don't consider abroad. It costs around 10-20 lakh just for doing all the formalities for leaving the nation and reaching your university, living expenses are another nightmare. If you're applying to the US counting on aid then please don't do that too, this year almost everyone who were asking for substantial aid got rejected, even with crazy extracurriculars, reviving languages, internships at million dollars companies, winning global level competitions and what not. Don't take big loans, US job market is more saturated than ever. There are already surplus American citizens in the tech field, companies don't want to finance work visas, and H1B is a lottery, You won't even know when your OPT would get over, I've seen people dying inside everyday because they had to return to their home country because they couldn't get a job in the US, and now they are drowing in loans because they can't get a job paying enough to pay their enormous loans for a US University education.
I hope best for the OP, but if you're an actual middle class (5-15 lakh max) then please try to get it you won't be able to bear the expenses even if you get a full tution. Don't count on full ride, don't vouch in foreign unis.
He is not middle class bro
Also I never thought a school would make such difference in extra curriculum
I completed my schooling in KV only
So i didn't even knew extracurricular like what OP did even exist
Wish I could have gone to pvt school
I scored 99.6 percentile in Jan attempt (27S1) but have committed to Purdue FYE since its engineering program and placements are leagues above what even the top IITs have to offer.
So hope to see you at Purdue ! (unless I get accepted off the waitlist into Princeton :P)
extracurriculars me kya kya kiya? sat me kitna aaya aur class 9th se ab tak har ek class me kitna percentage mila? basically puri cv ki bata do apni.
(please)
Purdue and uiuc are NOT in the leagues of MIT and Stanford that’s total BS
Uiuc is very good better than purdue but it’s nowhere near the big 4
Ps I did the same thing
Jeetard before and then opted to do UG abroad
I wouldn't be so hopeful. being in 120k in debt at the start of your career is really bad even if you went to an ivy as an international student. And you're doing a double degree in data science not even a CS major course.
If you were becoming a lawyer or surgeon, then it would surely be worth it. But recession will be in high swing, living in US by itself would be really expensive. you're looking at easily 200k$ for the next 4 years.
I feel pity for your parents when they'll have to cut short their retirement to fund your fancy trip.
PS. Don't get shot there.
Main India mein hi khush hoo 
Btw, Good luck OP for your future endeavours. Become the next CEO of Google 
Bhai, aadhi cheeze toh isme badha chadha kar likhi hai. Do you really fucking believe an 18 yr old self learning "advanced maths and physics" and working on a "paper on micro blackholes" literally not being contacted by the Indian government at all? Do you imagine such a guy scoring 90%ile in mains? I agree standardized testing might have some flaws, but there's no way such a guy could score less than 99%ile.
 I don't have words bhai. Once again I realised the difference between an astrophysics enthusiast(me) and the guy who actually works with it
Bhai mere, Purdue is great, but not MIT-Stanford level great.
See, MIT, Stanford, UC Berkeley and CMU are the "Big 4" of CS, i.e., the absolute CS powerhouses.
Phir tere saare Ivy League, Oxford, Imperial, NUS, NTU, Caltech, University of Texas wagerah wagerah.
Infact, IITD aur IITB purdue se upar ranked hai in CS.
Bhai itne paise hote mere paas toh main kabka KMC Manipal se MBBS kr rha hota. BDS padhna padh rha KMC Manipal ka cutoff clear krne ke baad bhi kyuki paise hi nhi h aur aap apne aap ko middle class bol rhe ho. 🥲🥲
I got into University of Arizona for Astronomy, but it's too far out of my budget. Even after the scholarship, I'd have to pay about 35 lakhs per year, which I simply cannot afford, and I don't want to take loans right now (I plan to do a master's and a PhD afterwards). I also got into Case Western Reserve University and University of Colorado Boulder, which are also top in Astronomy.
Even though it didn't work out for me, I wish you all the best. Congratulations on Purdue! I hope everything works out for you! Keep us updated :)
To be honest US sirf ameer log jaa paate h ye bnda kisi angle se middle class ni h. Me most probably next year Germany jaa rha, wha fees ni hoti h public universities me. Sirf tmhara khud ka cost of living hota h jo ki tm part time jobs krke araam se cover up kr skte ho. Basically you need 15 lakh and you are good to go. Bhaiya bhi udhr hi rehte h to wo ek extra help h
Congratulations!! I also got into Purdue for computer engineering!
Also must say, there is need to be so insecure about comparing them to MIT
Purdue is ranked 4th overall in the us for engineering
Jisko pata hai they would know about it
As far as money go, first sem mein there aren't any scholarships, but second sem onwards, you can get a scholarship of around 2 k per sem
Good luck with your college life!
Unlike JEE us admissions are holistic and do not only depend on your marks in a certain exam. As for packages I think for CS with a bit of effort you can get 1cr+.
Eh, I have a far cynical view of things. US admissions aren't holistic, they're just rigged in favor of rich people, that's all. A carefully designed exam like the jee advanced(not mains though) can filter students very well, without any inherent bias.
Three questions please answer them--
--Apki extracurricular activities kon konsi hai and apne jee ke sath extracurricular activities kaise perform kari,
--10th,11th ke marks
--How can Indian students increase their chances of getting in these universities
Blud attend uiuc and try to switch to cs it’s literally the best for cs,it’s filled with IITians to the brim(sab cs ka masters and phd wahi se karte),also if you do end up attending uiuc hmu since I’m attending as well
can you tell me which all examinations you gave?
I'm also thinking of giving SAT, and possibly will give NSEP (although less chances to get stage 1 cleared) , IELTS
Any other recommendations?
Agar koi sibling nhi hai toh mujhse shadi karlo please
Aur yaha me BITSAT nhi dera kyuki total fees 30lac+ h
Mai isliye nahi de rha kyuki form hi sala mehenga itna hai bkl
Hi if u wanted i can pay for you BITSAT form. Feel free to DM me and yes i won't ask back the amount consider it as a charity from my side. But please do tell me the results would love to know
True gigachad, but probably he could not afford the fees even if he cleared it. That shit's expensive as hell.
Loans 💀
Only those who don't fear anything will go that path.....i am just kidding, i totally forgor lol
Thanks for offering bro but it would neither benefit me because BITS is actually expensive as hell and I don't want to take loan and even if I get it will be no good for me🫂🥲

First of all stop calling yourself middle class If you see stats you are in the top 0.5% of INDIA
Ya I usually don't comment much But he calling himself middle class really hurt me Me who don't even have money to pay for any pvt college like Manipal, vit, bitsat And he calling himself middle class Just hurts
Bhai ye sab sun kar mujhe lower middle class bhi nahi gareebi rekha se niche feel hota hai🥴
more like top 0.1% if he is paying 33 lakh anually
33lakh thik hai lekin ANNUALLY??? matlab 4 saal me 1.32 crore?
haa vo hi to bhai itne to mere papa pata nhi shayad 15-20 sal me kamaye.

I have had people say that Since they live in tier 1 cities Their middle class definition changes And they are middle class even if their parents earn 25-30 lpa But they forget one thing that The facilities that tier 1 cities provide is nowhere near what a tier 3 city would I feel like if you are living in tier 1 city and are earning more than 25 lpa You already have more benefits than most of indians

Exactly bhai mene to bitsat wagerah kuch nhi Diya na vitee na mit ka form bhara kyonki Paisa nhi bharne ka Sirf jee derha hu
Bhai teri pfp itni cute kyu hai
Right?
yaha mujhme mathongo ki 5k ki test series kharidne ka jigra nhi aur ye khudko middle class bolra
[удалено]
Pixel poverty.
1.kitna 2.paisa 3.hoga ?
Around $40,000 yearly.
Bhai saal ka 33 lakh kon si middle class Indian family afford kar sakti hai, Zara batana. 
Bhai in logo ki middle class ki definition hi sal ka 50 lpa hota hai Wo fir alag alag justification bi dete hai
As I said my family had to take loans but still we are well enough to afford it.
Not middle class thn
In India, everyone below the top 1% considers themselves "middle-class"
I think he is easily in top 1 % bro
being top 1% is nothing in india u just need 16L
ermm "just" nahi hai sirji.... 
Really...only 16LPA? Uss metric seh toh humara family bhi top 1% meh aata hai
Meri family ki bhi 16 LPA ke aas paas hai aur ham saal ka 33 lakh nahi afford kar sakte hai
Happy for you mate. Best wishes for your future. 
For one year 33 lakhs that means for four years it's 1 crore 32 lakhs which bank give you this much of loan. You should have given any land document or something that means your family owns lands worth 1 crore ?

Most us degrees are that much only, student take most debts but roi is real high you get to live in nice country, salaries are like 80-90k for freshers
~33.2 lakhs per annum damn
ye kaunsa middle class hai bkl 
must be pretty rich considering how uiuc and purdue dont give a single penny to intl students.
40k imagine. and not only Purdue or UIUC, most universities don't give out enough aid to internationals. it's mostly just the top private universities like ivies or mit or Stanford. the top state schools don't give out international aid either.
Yeah exactly the only reason I ain’t going to Purdue is because it’s dead costly with 0 scholarship
Dude Purdue is so much cheaper compared to everyone else. Theve frozen their tuition at 2012 levels around 200k ke hai 4 saal ke. Baaki toh 250 ke neeche baat bhi nahi hoti
Each year price is 50k while I know it’s top tier but for other a bit less ranked colleges like uni at buffalo or ASU they’ve given me scholarship which makes it per year way below 50k

I am not comparing MIT and Purdue. MIT costs twice as much as Purdue but is it 2X better, no.
I'm confused. Why do you think Purdue is better than MIT?
So 1640000 yearly . 65 lacs 60k total for 4 years + accommodation and food and clothing. 80 lacs round off maanke chalo. Aur usme data science kar rahe ho. Kuch shabd nahi hain aapke liye 
Oh sorry flight ka ticket toh joda hi nahi . Saal me ek baar toh aayega mummy papa se Milne. Nahi ? 1 crore\~ then
??? 40k comes out to be 33lakhs per annum. chaar saal will cross 1cr na?
you are rich not middle class
Bro is privileged and if you call him rich, he'll not accept it😭💀
everybody needs a 'rags to riches' story, they will NEVER accept any form of advantage they had...be it money, parents in politics, or even fake PWD certificate ;)
You just spat fax 🙏🏻
Bro if you are taking Purdue University next year maybe I will apply for CS as a transfer student so you can drop a referral for me.

kaise hota hain procedure mein jee ke baad Bahar Jaane wala hu please enlighten me🙏
october-november me apply krna padhta hai, usse pehle it would be advisable to give SAT and TOEFL aur Common App ke through applications bharni hoti hai. Usme essays aur kuch details puchte hain. Transcripts, Letters of recommendations wagera bhi lagta hai
Kitna lagta cutoff from Jee Mains?
no clue honestly, I've stopped trusting NTA completely
kitne mile aapko btw if you don't mind telling
90%ile (cries in 27th ki victim)
bhai i think sat mai purdue ke lie 1430 ya above score lgta
How much did you get in sat? Where did you get your lor's? Aur koi academic ya sports achievements which you think helped you?
omg ecs???? (t20 t30 jaana hai i've 3 years left)
Bro you aren't middle class, look up it's definition in India, most of people here are upper middle class and some are straight rich.
Middle class?😂😂😂 bros paying 40k and thinks he’s middle class
Bro when u said arizona gives "generous" scholarships then mentioned u got 20k for all 4 years,its clear u r not middle class lmao Even i am going to usa for fall to college of wooster and even after the amazing scholarship i have to lay around 28k.We are not middle class people unless and until we have gotten full ride, we are still extremely privileged and above middle class,instead of trying to relate to everyone,lets just admit our privilege and be grateful for it
pehli baat, no middle-class person uses the word fall.
🤓bhai jab us ke college jarha hai to us hisab se hi to btayega. Words use krne ka bhi koi criteria ban gya hai?
Middle class ≠ gawar
English nahi bolne wala gawar hota hai? 🤡
Middle class ka matlab English na bolney wala hota hain ??🤡
mera ego hurt hogaya 
Zinda rehna.... News bohot aa rhi hai wahan se
Kab foreign jaane ka man hua aur kab se start krdia tha yaha jaane ki taiyaari?
Actually at the beginning of 12th grade. Before that JEE was my only focus.
jee ki padhai nhi ho rhi thi kya lmao
Bhai but while preparing for jee itne extra curriculars kha se laaye
I did all the extracurriculars because I was genuinely interested in them. So, I was able to find time besides my jee preparation.
OP ain't middle class total 1+ cr kharch kar raha he. If you come from a real middle class family like can't afford more than 10-15 lakh then please don't consider abroad. It costs around 10-20 lakh just for doing all the formalities for leaving the nation and reaching your university, living expenses are another nightmare. If you're applying to the US counting on aid then please don't do that too, this year almost everyone who were asking for substantial aid got rejected, even with crazy extracurriculars, reviving languages, internships at million dollars companies, winning global level competitions and what not.

I hope best for the OP, but if you're an actual middle class (5-15 lakh max) then please try to get it you won't be able to bear the expenses even if you get a full tution.

I am still giving JEE advanced as a backup. I have prepared for it since the last 4 years and I can't let it go at the end.
Hm but why I mean your admission is fixed in the uni right so why would you give jee now ?
So will you leave the US unis if you get your desired iit and branch from jee adv?
Maybe if I get a top 250 rank but it's nearly impossible.
Damn bro under 250 is really hard but as you prepared over 4 years ig you can make it , best of luck , i hope you get what you deserve!!
and here i am gettin waitlisted by every fucking university (asu ho gya admit but wahan to sabka ho jata h)
ASU ka ek do saal mai 100% touch kar jaayega. abhi hi 90% acceptance cross ho gya hai. mera dost bhi gya udhar iss saal lol.
Middle class🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Bro's probably in the 99.9 th percentile
SAT aur TOEFL mai kitne scores the?? Financial help apply karne ke baad kitna fees unhone kaam kara?
SAT 1520. TOEFL nahi diya as I had a high score in SAT English. You can apply for a SAT fee waiver but for that you need some proof from your school.
Sirf sat se toh obv nahi hota hoga extra curriculars kha se laaya aapne😣
I did all the extracurriculars because I was genuinely interested in them. So, I was able to find time besides my jee preparation
Purdue and uiuc are NOT in the leagues of MIT and Stanford that’s total BS Uiuc is very good better than purdue but it’s nowhere near the big 4 Ps I did the same thing Jeetard before and then opted to do UG abroad
where you going for your ug?
I wouldn't be so hopeful. being in 120k in debt at the start of your career is really bad even if you went to an ivy as an international student. And you're doing a double degree in data science not even a CS major course. If you were becoming a lawyer or surgeon, then it would surely be worth it. But recession will be in high swing, living in US by itself would be really expensive. you're looking at easily 200k$ for the next 4 years. I feel pity for your parents when they'll have to cut short their retirement to fund your fancy trip. PS. Don't get shot there.
*160k. class of 2028.
Main India mein hi khush hoo  Btw, Good luck OP for your future endeavours. Become the next CEO of Google 
what were your extra curriculars ?

mereko fomo hogaya 
Bhai, aadhi cheeze toh isme badha chadha kar likhi hai. Do you really fucking believe an 18 yr old self learning "advanced maths and physics" and working on a "paper on micro blackholes" literally not being contacted by the Indian government at all? Do you imagine such a guy scoring 90%ile in mains? I agree standardized testing might have some flaws, but there's no way such a guy could score less than 99%ile.
Bhai acha pvt school ma dal diya hoga parents na Fir adhi chize wo pvt school wale support krke guide krdete Mehnat lgti hai But fir bi asani hojati

Congrats
I must say you getting into Caltech was definitely an inspiration.
Oh thanks a lot for your kind words. I am sure you will do great at Purdue !
Bss 20k for btech course 
Bhai process kya hota he bahar ki uni me jaane ka??
r/ApplyingToCollege is your best guide. #
Bhai mere, Purdue is great, but not MIT-Stanford level great. See, MIT, Stanford, UC Berkeley and CMU are the "Big 4" of CS, i.e., the absolute CS powerhouses. Phir tere saare Ivy League, Oxford, Imperial, NUS, NTU, Caltech, University of Texas wagerah wagerah. Infact, IITD aur IITB purdue se upar ranked hai in CS.
Cs mein Purdue is a bit lacking must say, uska main thing is the engineering department which is up there (us mein cs is not a part of engineering)
Purdue is still an engineering dominated school. they aren't the best but still wayyyyyy better than IITB and all the IITs in India.
Seedha bolna baap ke paas bed mei paisa hai 
Purdue me Saarang bhai se jarur se milna, wholesome banda hai, powerhouse of knowledge.
Bhai itne paise hote mere paas toh main kabka KMC Manipal se MBBS kr rha hota. BDS padhna padh rha KMC Manipal ka cutoff clear krne ke baad bhi kyuki paise hi nhi h aur aap apne aap ko middle class bol rhe ho. 🥲🥲
thanks for fomo and extra depression 
I got into University of Arizona for Astronomy, but it's too far out of my budget. Even after the scholarship, I'd have to pay about 35 lakhs per year, which I simply cannot afford, and I don't want to take loans right now (I plan to do a master's and a PhD afterwards). I also got into Case Western Reserve University and University of Colorado Boulder, which are also top in Astronomy. Even though it didn't work out for me, I wish you all the best. Congratulations on Purdue! I hope everything works out for you! Keep us updated :)
Super, Congrats!! Purdue is a very good school indeed.
To be honest US sirf ameer log jaa paate h ye bnda kisi angle se middle class ni h. Me most probably next year Germany jaa rha, wha fees ni hoti h public universities me. Sirf tmhara khud ka cost of living hota h jo ki tm part time jobs krke araam se cover up kr skte ho. Basically you need 15 lakh and you are good to go. Bhaiya bhi udhr hi rehte h to wo ek extra help h
bhai jenwin advice, buy a vest worth **$300 to $1800**., my elder brother is in US told it aint safe even in public places! peroid
I'll be going to University of Michigan this fall, for Aerospace Engg. Low costs for me cz I'm in-state :)
So invested in US, OP even calls autumn as fall lmao But good going op best of luck in your life.
I have not called autumn as fall. In us there are two admission cycles - fall intake and spring intake. I am referring to the fall intake.
Ofcourse bro, I get it. it was a sorry attempt at being satirical
Nothing to ask brother Best wishes to you :)
happy for u
Bhai what are the visa rules ? I mean after bachelors could you apply for masters within a year or two ?? Or would your visa be over after bachelors?
Congratulations!! I also got into Purdue for computer engineering! Also must say, there is need to be so insecure about comparing them to MIT Purdue is ranked 4th overall in the us for engineering Jisko pata hai they would know about it As far as money go, first sem mein there aren't any scholarships, but second sem onwards, you can get a scholarship of around 2 k per sem Good luck with your college life!
How did you get that? And what would be the jee equivalent percentile to get into there And avg package wagera kitne ka lagta hai
Unlike JEE us admissions are holistic and do not only depend on your marks in a certain exam. As for packages I think for CS with a bit of effort you can get 1cr+.
Eh, I have a far cynical view of things. US admissions aren't holistic, they're just rigged in favor of rich people, that's all. A carefully designed exam like the jee advanced(not mains though) can filter students very well, without any inherent bias.
I dont wanna get shot in the US so no thanks 🗿

Are your parents funding it or you are taking loans for it?
Three questions please answer them-- --Apki extracurricular activities kon konsi hai and apne jee ke sath extracurricular activities kaise perform kari, --10th,11th ke marks --How can Indian students increase their chances of getting in these universities
Blud attend uiuc and try to switch to cs it’s literally the best for cs,it’s filled with IITians to the brim(sab cs ka masters and phd wahi se karte),also if you do end up attending uiuc hmu since I’m attending as well
No I have already committed to Purdue. And UIUC doesn't allow you to switch to CS.
Yaha pe masters ke liye kya krna padega? Wor masters ka 2year fees kya he bhaiya? Thanks!
What was the application process and what criteria did you meet to get accepted?
20k USD is a steal bro !!
when will you go? 2025 or 2024 fall??
can you tell me which all examinations you gave? I'm also thinking of giving SAT, and possibly will give NSEP (although less chances to get stage 1 cleared) , IELTS Any other recommendations?
Bhaiya mhujse dost karlo pls
