🧠INSIGHTS
It was a fantastic experience learning more about Jimeet’s sir’s own application process and how he goes about counseling students. It is a tough path to walk when you have young minds and their careers in your hands.
Here are our favorite insights from the episode.
🤔 How do you select the right Master’s program? - Jimeet sir says it depends on what students want in their careers. If your end goal is to settle abroad, are you okay with the current US Immigration environment? If you think Canadian immigration is easy, are you okay with the 8-months of brutally cold weather?
There are a lot of questions that you need to ask yourself and reflect on what you genuinely want in your career before deciding on the Master’s program.
✈ What should students focus on if they are planning to go abroad? - Here are the key things to plan for early-on in your college
a. Academics - your academic score still plays a huge part in obtaining an admit
b. Ask your seniors the right question - don’t focus on what they did but what they think you should do! Maybe you can learn from their mistakes
