Do you guys have some ideas regarding Studying In US after SLC . My brother is 16 years old and is giving SLC.
Yours valuable information regarding this will be highly appreciated.

My two cents

i dont think our friend here is looking for any information.Information is asked when you're curious to know facts. Our friend here already knows a lot about America. He's giving us informations in return. I wish if he coud very kindy provide me the names of the Nepai - undergrad CEOs. So i could maybe find a decent job by contacting them and pulling our common roots.
So our friend here aready knows the job market and what undergrad degree means in the USA. He even knows a lot of undergraduate - CEOs from Nepal lliving in the East part of the nation , who can barely add and spell. I think he's in a very good shape and soon will rip off the fruit of being a brother of a CEO.

dyamn,
i thought u r already working.

But being a CEO of an LLC is not a big thing .. u know what i mean. Its a one man company and you are the owner and CEO (O:

but there has been instances where Nepalese who have done undergrad in US had been COO of branches in Nepal of some multinational.

some karmacharya has a tech company in Nepal. i believe he was an under/graduate of MIT. he is CEO, there. preety good financials. Have decent clientele in US.

another person from MIT owns lot of industies in NEPAL.

In addition to thapa ji reply:
Started from Undergrad. in US

Priya Sharma - Grad. of Cornell currently works for intel inside. She is not a CEO; but she is in a high level.
Ramesh Karki - Grad. of NYU Works for UN.(ny) Dont know his level but he makes a lots of money
Umesh Uppreti - Grad. of RICE Works for some oil company, is the director of that branch
Bupil Raj Adhikari - Grad. of Uni. of Colorodo - Hotel managment - lots of money!!!

and the list is LONG!! Well, i dont know all of them; but i hav heard about them. Seen them. Why dont u come to NY eve party this week bro in Manhattan...then, u will see ppl who studied from their undergard.; worked hard and now living 1st class life.

Well, yea its hard. Its not a piece of cake to achive all that. But, if u get in some nice schools here then, i would not recommend studying in US.

And, as u said going to INdia, thats not a bad idea; but there are many other things which draws pppl to west!!!

Priya Sharma in cornell studied psycology I believe.. I am sure INTEL does need some ppl in their HR for psychic analysis hoina ra (O:

i have heard of some body named "A" who went to Stanford and working in Intel.
there are lot of nepalese who worked in HP. mid manager.

in next 10 yrs. when all the IVY grad from Nepal start their adventure in INDUSTRY.. we are gonna c a lot of them in UPPER MANAGEMENT.

====================================================
btw, what else do i know (O:

Hey dirty minded still you gave few list...you were talking as if there were lots...compare with other average nepali student ..if you talk like this i also can say few people who has done PHD from cornell,yale,harvard,colombia,......and all of them who study in this kind of college come for scholarship or fellowship ...i bet you,.,,,...and don't think studying in these type of college is easy..if you study in this type of college you won't be able to work outside because it is tough ..they need to have scholarship....but remember there are thousands of nepalese student who is still working illligal job in comparision to few....so my just point is if you have schoarship in good university for undergrad its okay to come over here...or either come in scholarship for graduate student.at least you will be paid for you are studing and can do research ....

Yep thapap
well, i dont know wat she studied, wat she did not. Chorey ra pass garyo ke phadera pass garyo. But, wat i know is she came here a long time ago; undergard. now graduated from cornell and works for intel. :)
And, same thing with other ppl mentions above. and there are lot like thapap said.

But, now DYAM ji mite com and say: "well, they all had to work for indians and in their gas station to pay off their tutions"
well, for taht i hav to say YES, they did. they worked their ass off. Jhannnn tyo jawana ma ta, it was not smiple as now it is to get work @ indian''s or paki's or @ nepali's.

"""" in next 10 yrs. when all the IVY grad from Nepal start their adventure in INDUSTRY.. we are gonna c a lot of them in UPPER MANAGEMENT. """" thapap said

good to hear that :)
btw, if u guys hav notice or now. When u open adobe photoshop...as it loaded up -- it reveals the user some name. I rekon i saw few indian names and a nepali name :)

u work like an ass now, but think about the outcome after few year after graduation. but, as i said; ur acedemics st. has to be higher; aaani the names i mentions had to work some illigals works to pay off their tution!!

"""...don't think studying in these type of college is easy.""" ss74k ji said

i dont think its easy. and i said it like hundred times. ss74k ji why dont u go back to my previous post and read wat i said. THen u mite get my point. Kurai na bhuji...k khanu aaaye ko?

Do you think that studying in good college and working at the same time outside is possible???????
hey you don't need to tell me ..i am also a grad student.....and found its lot easier if you have fellowship...thats what i am telling....if you have fellowship you don't need to worry working outside as average nepali student do....all you can focus is in study,.

And i have read all your above thread...you don't need to remind me..i am tallking about average nepali student...not talking about few student ...

ss74k,
from my perspective your point is valid. One cannot work in gas station and focus on study. yes, that is the plight of 90% of nepalese students here in US.

rest 10% are lucky who have full ride to good and nice schools.

but there are exceptions everywhere hoina ta (O:

i am sure 90% of those ppl would be better person than those 10% because they have gone through all the shits of life. They would be able to handle ups and down of life better than those 10% who could be victim of depression on slightest hurdles of life.


====================================================
just my thts.
what else do i know (O: hoina ta

Dirtyminded,
The ist of ppl you gave me, non of them are CEOs.
You were claming like you know the fortune 500 ceos who are from Nepal and have undergrad degree and who can't spell or add basic stuff. Where are those ppl,kindly enlighten me.

Cornell,Harvard, UCLA, hahaha yeah right, you think they can work in a gastation and offord those universities? Probally offord to buy a post card.

I have never said that it is a bad idea to come over here. Of course, hard work , networking,and doing right thing at a right times is very fruitful in the USA. If your brother is getting scholorship on Harvard, UCLA or even to a community college where he does not have to work too much and can focus his studies then it is a very wise idea.

here :
Priya Sharma - Grad. of Cornell currently works for intel inside. She is not a CEO; but she is in a high level.
Ramesh Karki - Grad. of NYU Works for UN.(ny) Dont know his level but he makes a lots of money
Umesh Uppreti - Grad. of RICE Works for some oil company, is the director of that branch
Bupil Raj Adhikari - Grad. of Uni. of Colorodo - Hotel managment - lots of money!!!


Which one of them are the CEO?
Here add one more on your list. " lots of money "does not mean CEO. And just because some of them are making " lots of money " does not justify their struggle or thier luck behind thier " lots of money " , my friend. Who knows if they were super taleneted, super lucky , or even had a super rich grand parents.

Dirtymined, I am not trying to brainwash you here. I am giving you a very realistic image of undergrad life here in the usa, with no good scholorship or good funding. It is very hard and no point to go through misery when same degree can be earned from India. They can come here for masters, with teaching assistanceship or reasearch assistanceship. That way they do not have to worry about funding and can focus on thier course work. Not only that but they can get jobs most faster. Why suffer and risk career, life , money when better can be achieved with just a reasonable decision.
Thapap ji, yes I already have a job but I would like to explore my options and maybe get hired by one of the Nepali CEOs from the east. are you one of them by any chance?
hehe

:::Priya Sharma - Grad. of Cornell currently works for intel inside. She is not a CEO; but she is in a high level. :::

There's nobody at Intel named Priya Sharma unless she changed her name.

All you good people are bullshitting so I have to intervene. Here are my thoughts, see if people can agree on this

If your smart, and focussed and dedicated, try for scholarship in a good university in the US or else go to India for Bachelors. Most probably these people will opt for engineering if they went to India. Come for Masters in the US.

If you are a risk taker, decently intelligent (like an IQ of 120-140), want to have some fun, do lots of things at the same time, then come to the US for Bachelors. You have to be outgoing and a risktaker otherwise you will probably return back after a couple of semesters.

If your papa has lots of money then come to the US for Bachelors as your papa needs a channel to redirect his money

If you think that studying bachelors in the US can gurantee you a job then you're damn wrong. Even small consulting companies ask for a masters degree now a days. You might get lucky though

If you've struggled through college to get a B average, then you can still get a job provided that you know someone as Thapap mentioned.

I don't believe in the steryotype that American High School Students are dumb. As this kid in my college who used to score the highest points in Calculus 3 class happened to be a high school senior taking college classes. Simply put forward, they don't need to work as hard as Asians do to make things happen so they don't!!

### what do i know (O: ###

You know a lot dude. I can tell that from your reasoning :o)

thapap,
I am looking for processes to enroll in a US school after SLC. Possibly in Wisconsin. I want real facts from the students who came here after SLC or prior to that.

aman,

as far as I know coming to US, immediately after SLC on F1 (STUDENT VISA) NOW IS IMPOSSIBLE. YOU NEED TO DEMONSTRATE YOU HAVE MONEY TO COVER ALL THE COST. Admission has to be in PRIVATE SCHOOL. PUBIC SCHOOLS cannot SPONSOR or issue F1 at all. you can visit http://travel.state.gov/visa/visa_1750.html and find more information

Now, if you are legal immigrant (i.e. with Green Card) just come here and get enrolled (O: ; where ever you want.

====================================================
as always
what do I know (O:

dyamn,
i would hire you if you are willing to do dish washing (O: and that is all that is available for now.
u can call me a CEO of LLC (O: that does not do any good does it. I cannot even sponsor myself. LLC is there to protect myself from liability for some consulting that i perform[when i am blessed].

====================================================
as always
what do i know (O:

fountaindew,
thanks for all the confidence on my 2 cents (O:

i used to drink MOUNTAINDEW, vry bad for sperm production, with its content called yellow 5 (O:.... so i gave up .. anyway I drink a lot of water these days (O:

what kinda fountain drink are u?

all in JEST (O:
====================================================
once again,
what do i know (O: hoina ta!!

Thapap, fountaindew was my nickname when I used to play chess in yahoo back in the school days. Life was tough so had to had a lot of caffeine to stay awake. But now I don't drink sugary drinks anymore. Switched to Water, Gatorade and Iced tea.
You're in EE and to get there you have to know a lot!! :o) So you do know a lot dude if not everything :o)

fountaindew,

thanks once again.
so, i reckon that u urself belong to EE class (O:. takes one 2 know other. hoina ta..

how is google's stock options doing (O: once upon a time, options kept me flying ..... now they r all dreams.. since everything tanked ... funny were those days.

getting to life its always a challenge and adventure. one after another.. ..

waking up is/was never a problem for me.. sleeping has/is always been a problem )O:

chess huh.... so u r spontaneous player or meomonics follower ...
how do u open? follow particular couple of openings or just spontaneous?

I was in EE. Now I'm in software. Google's stocks are doing great and when I used to play chess, the opening move depended on how strong the opponent was. I would start with sneaky opening moves and see if those worked. (Loved finishing the game in just a few moves) :o) Else my moves would be spontaneous.
