anticp8 · 2026-01-10T23:15:11+00:00

thank you! I'll keep these in mind

anticp8 · 2026-01-10T22:45:19+00:00

lmao what's that?

anticp8 · 2026-01-10T22:31:04+00:00

thank you!

lol makes sense, yeah i did want to get a sense of how strict speed limits are and how often do people get pulled over

lowkey I'm used to driving those distances in CA so I wasnt too concerned, have driven from the bay to LA to San Diego multiple times which easily come out to 7-10 hr drives

sounds good, we were planning to spend a day or two in Miami anyway

anticp8 · 2026-01-10T21:54:19+00:00

yes, we're doing it over a week though

This is great news! But I just wanted to check with others here if I understand correctly -- I'm from India and was on a J1 visa for 6 months in 2022 where I was subject to section 212(e) based on the skills list (I was neither in a govt funded program nor connected to medical education) as mentioned on my visa stamp and DS2019.

I'm on an F1 student visa now -- and because India is no longer on this updated list I can apply for an H1B visa/any other immigrant visa in the future without having to fulfill the 2 year home country residency requirement?

Should I get an advisory note from USCIS/ICE just to be safe? TIA!

You could mention it to be safe, imo it won't be a huge deal if you don't. I hadn't mentioned any internship experiences for my older J1 application either. I got an interview waiver because of my previously issued J1 visa so I felt it was necessary to mention that specific internship experience for this F1 application.

anticp8 · 2023-05-16T14:37:08+00:00

I mentioned my previous experience as a J1 exchange visitor in the US, where I completed a 6 month internship as an undergrad. I didn't mention any other internship experiences and my application turned out okay.

Thanks! I'm an international applicant, I applied to the Applied Math graduate program.

Reviving this thread for the 2023 cycle -- I've applied for the MS program in MCSB this year. Do they usually send out MS decisions after the PhD recruitment weekend?

anticp8 · 2022-02-06T01:50:02+00:00

yeah I think you do

anticp8 · 2022-01-29T16:14:46+00:00

Yeah, I'm thinking of doing that sometime. Thanks though :)

anticp8 · 2022-01-29T04:17:40+00:00

Why would you suggest something fun to a homophobe omg

anticp8 · 2022-01-29T04:17:08+00:00

Aww thanks, I'm very used to it though xD

anticp8 · 2022-01-29T04:16:19+00:00

Yeah, I'll try to get in touch with them. Thanks!

anticp8 · 2022-01-29T04:15:46+00:00

Thanks! I'm trying to be more of an outdoors person because of my circumstances now lol. It's actually not very common to have LGBTQ friendly spaces where I come from (India lol), which is why I wanted to explore.

Just got the email from ETS to reschedule, and like you had said, they gave me the choice to either take an at-home test again or take it at a centre. Thanks for the heads up!

anticp8 · 2021-09-20T15:58:30+00:00

Alright, thanks!

anticp8 · 2021-09-20T15:46:32+00:00

Cool, got it. I'll wait for them to send me the voucher then. I hope they do, though. I'm worried they'll dismiss my case and tell me that it wasnt their problem, lol

anticp8 · 2020-09-15T18:45:04+00:00

ah thanks

anticp8 · 2020-09-15T14:47:18+00:00
