Tips and Suggestions:
How did you prepare?
I used went through all possible questions they wouldβve asked me, and not gonna lie I did use chat gpt but only on how to start out my answers.
I also did a lot of mocks and also using the telegram group,
Iβd say donβt try to by heart stuff thatβs online?
Cause theyβve probably already heard all the answers already. Just speak slowly and confidently.
And don't prepare long 8 marks answers 2 marks and 4 marks is fine
He was also giving rejections and was very calm and patient
The 19 counter was the other way he was asking continuous questions and rejecting even after lot questions and he was giving fast rejections too
Overall today many approvals were given with few rejections as far as I've seen

π»VO: What do you want to do at georgetown?
πΉMe: I want to learn personalised medicine and drug discovery with this program of Biotech at georgetown.
VO: Oh you were rejected, are you changing your course?
Me: Yes officer.
VO: Why?
Me: Honestly, I made an error because of my fascination towards commercial side of pharma but I have realised as to add more products to the market, I need to learn drug discovery and not an MBAβ¦(interrupted)
VO: What was your bachelorβs GPA? Oh you did masters too? why go for another masters now?
ME: Officer my bachelorβs GPA was 7.22 on scale of (interrupted and asked for transcript, which I passed while completing my answer) and I want to learn personalised medicine and drug discoveryβ¦With my previous masters I learnt generic product development and I want to be established in the niche I am going for.
VO: How are you planning to pay 93K USD?
Me: Through my fatherβs savings and education loan amounting cumulatively to X (kept typing) and to notify officer, the program fees are 58K, mentioned number is just a common amount of the medical school that my program is associated with.

Me: (listed steps, eligibility and the interview I had with one of the subject matter expert)

ME: Traditionally, it was injected and than came in capsules, but now, this formulation has lactobacilli bacteria which are present in our GIT already and VIT D3 is incorporated in similar lab grown organism and through which it stays protected in acidic pH of stomach, hence it can be administered (interrupted)
VO: Sir, I am approving your visa.
Me: Expressed my gratitude and exchange a formal smile and left the consulate.
Observation: From what I observed, I guess he was looking at DS thoroughly, searching about my answers and taking case notes continuously.
Special thanks Axis, Saransh, Durga, Kurosaki, Professor, Himaja and Shield.

My F1 Visa Experience
University: City University of New York
Status: Approved β
Date: 2nd December
Time: 12 PM
Counter: 11
So, we were taken in at 12 PM. After that, we gave the biometrics and at that time, only one VO was taking interviews for all the applicantsβa curly-haired lady. It went like this:
πΉMe: Good afternoon, Officer! (with a big smile)
π»VO: Good afternoon! So, youβre going to the City University of New York, I see! (excitedly)
πΉMe: Yes, I am going to the City University of New York.
π»VO: Did you apply to any other universities?
πΉMe: Yes, I have applied to several other universities, such as...
Https://t.me/f1_exp
π»VO: So, why did you choose to go there?
πΉMe: As I am planning to do a Bachelor in Sociology, the core modules of this degree at Queens really caught my attention, such as...
She stopped me there and said, "I see you are going to study Sociology."
π»VO: Why Sociology?
πΉMe: Since I come from a third-world country, Iβve seen how issues like child marriage, dowry and the abuse of women occur on a daily basis. I want to be an advocate for women, empower them and fight against gender discrimination.
π»VO: I can understand. (in a very soft tone)
π»VO: How are you going to manage your tuition fees and living costs?
πΉMe: My father is going to pay for all four years of my tuition fees and living costs.
@f1_exp
π»VO: And what does he do?
πΉMe: Heβs an established businessman. He has been consistently importing high-end motorbikes for the past 25 years.
π»VO: Motorbikes? (excitedly) Do you know how to ride a motorbike?
πΉMe: No, I donβt. (with a soft laugh)
VO: Haha, itβs okay!
π»VO: What are your plans after completing your degree?
πΉMe: I plan to join a top NGO here in Bangladesh, such as Grameen or BRAC, which have played a significant role in womenβs empowerment. I want to contribute to their legacy by advocating for gender equality and working actively to end child marriage.
π»VO: You have a big dream, girl. I hope you can achieve it.
By that time, I was confident about getting the visa.
π»VO: Do you have anyone living in the USA?
πΉMe: Yes, I have my aunt from my fatherβs side.
π»VO: And where does she live in the USA?
πΉMe: In New York as well.
VO: Thatβs great!
π»VO: And youβve been to the Maldives, I see. How long did you stay there?
This was the trick question and I forgot exactly how long I stayed.
πΉMe: Probably 3-4 days.
Https://t.me/f1_exp
π»VO: Did you enjoy it?
πΉMe: Yes, a lot! I had a wonderful time with my family.
π»VO: Wish you all the best for your degree and future. I am approving your visa. And donβt forget to have fun there! ππ
She gave me that white approval paper first. Then I said, βWonβt I get the blue leaflet?β
πΉVO: Oh, do you want the blue leaflet? Let me see if I have one.
She went inside, searched for one, came back and said, βThis was the last one I had,β and gave it to me. I was already in tears.
Key Takeaways:
One thing I noticed was that she wasnβt rejecting anyone for no reason. Either it was because of their DS-160 or their interview performance. If she decided not to give the visa based on the DS-160, she didnβt ask more than one or two questions. You have to be really careful with your DS-160.
I also saw a lot of people whose answers sounded memorized, which could be a reason for rejection.
Lastly, thereβs nothing above praying. Tahajjud really works like magic and so do prayers. Keep two nafl fasts with intentionβit works. Since I had no other options, I didnβt plan for any other countries. This was everything I thought about.
You have to be really, really confident. I saw people with very good profiles getting rejected just because they were nervous on the interview day. Trust the process and believe in yourself. It will all work out, InshaAllah.
She cut me off many times and didnβt let me complete my answers fully when she got what she needed, so itβs okay to get cut off.

π»VO: And youβve been to the Maldives, I see. How long did you stay there?
This was the trick question and I forgot exactly how long I stayed.
πΉMe: Probably 3-4 days.
Https://t.me/f1_exp
π»VO: Did you enjoy it?
πΉMe: Yes, a lot! I had a wonderful time with my family.
π»VO: Wish you all the best for your degree and future. I am approving your visa. And donβt forget to have fun there! ππ
She gave me that white approval paper first. Then I said, βWonβt I get the blue leaflet?β
πΉVO: Oh, do you want the blue leaflet? Let me see if I have one.
She went inside, searched for one, came back and said, βThis was the last one I had,β and gave it to me. I was already in tears.
Key Takeaways:
One thing I noticed was that she wasnβt rejecting anyone for no reason. Either it was because of their DS-160 or their interview performance. If she decided not to give the visa based on the DS-160, she didnβt ask more than one or two questions. You have to be really careful with your DS-160.
I also saw a lot of people whose answers sounded memorized, which could be a reason for rejection.
Lastly, thereβs nothing above praying. Tahajjud really works like magic and so do prayers. Keep two nafl fasts with intentionβit works. Since I had no other options, I didnβt plan for any other countries. This was everything I thought about.
You have to be really, really confident. I saw people with very good profiles getting rejected just because they were nervous on the interview day. Trust the process and believe in yourself. It will all work out, InshaAllah.
She cut me off many times and didnβt let me complete my answers fully when she got what she needed, so itβs okay to get cut off.
