Hmmm..

But it is very weird. Top college people are getting rejected. Ross is such a great college. Is there a reason you think admits from top colleges get rejectd.

If you can share 1 or 2 key points

Like seeing Sherluk transcript I think he is not aware of American way of communication. Like if they ask how are you funding you just can’t say loan and savings they expect you be detailed. In American way of speaking you are expected to speak a little bit more, smile and have strong presence. They like people who are truthful and consistent.

There is also 1 thing I hate about people who get rejected. They put everything on VO that VO was randomly rejecting. They don’t introspect and put things randomly on reddit to make others panic.

Like if you are from top college and you got rejected - the issue is FOR SURE in you (communication or you couldn’t prove the intent). Like Sherluk transcript proved that people go without much preparation.

Visa is getting tough. Getting job is getting tough. Darwin theory will kick in. Only the most fittest with survive
Sure I **** up and sure I could have prepped more.
But I couldn’t have given more details as the VO cut me off after 5 words at the first answer and gave me the white slip as soon as I said I’ll pay for the loan through my job.
If you want to **** bricks, I’ll give you another data point.
The guy after me was rejected after 1 question.
One. He was out the gate at the same time that I was.

The other dude who got rejected from Ross prepped well with a visa agent. Wasn’t even asked about funding breakdown.
IITB CSE. Some business role at Samsung. Cream of the crop. Guess what? Rejected.

So yeah. Don’t mess up your DS-160. I got mine checked. It wasn’t pristine but nothing to get rejected for.
But if you’re unlucky, and I hope you are not, you’re getting **** bro.

Nah. I’ll not name others who don’t want to come forward themselves.
