Studying in USA is a Choice You'll Never Regret

What would it mean to have an American university listed on your resume? Why would potential employers pause and take notice of your education credentials from the United States?

It would mean that you have advanced English language skills and valuable inter-cultural experience. It would show that you studied within one of the best higher education systems in the world, with access to advanced technology and research. They would know that you received in-depth instruction, learned to problem-solve and have knowledge of modern practices within your field.

It would mean that you have more opportunities

Studying in the United States and abroad doesn’t just give you tangible degrees and certificates. Your experience says something about who you are. Living and studying in another country—especially where your language isn’t spoken is challenging, requires courage and a positive attitude. Sometimes these characteristics are more influential than your degree.

Life here, both as an international student and visitor, will probably be different from what you expect. You may be pleasantly surprised to find that the images from films and television programs are not always true. Americans come in a variety of sizes, colours, and shapes. In general, they are very friendly and will be interested in learning about you and your country. For any international student, the USA has a lot to offer: one of the most prestigious, top ranked higher education systems in the world, eclectic cities, beautiful natural parks, culture, history and a very multicultural population.

Diversity and Variety

The United States offers variety.

The United States offers variety. There is a wide range of schools, countless areas of study and speciality degrees. If you are interested in studying business, you are not relegated to just general study, but can choose from many concentrations: engineering, healthcare, medicine, law, sciences, business administration, or finance. (There are many more!) This type of speciality study is available at the undergraduate, graduate and doctorate level, too.

One option you may not be aware of is studying at a community college, which is a two-year school in which you can begin your university study. You can complete the first two years of your bachelor’s degree at a community college and then transfer your credits to a four-year university. This is extremely common in the USA. Community colleges offer lower tuition costs, smaller class sizes and more personal attention. Many community colleges also offer intensive English language programs.

Or, you can begin your studies at a four-year university or college. The variation and number of choices reflects the diversity and enormity of the US. You can study at a large public university or college.If you prefer a more intimate campus and a smaller community, you may choose a small private university.

The land and people of the USA are also incredibly varied. Wherever you choose to study, you will encounter a regional culture rich in history and local traditions. For instance, the West Coast region has many beaches, outdoor activities, the people have a relaxed attitude and you will probably find many local international communities. The Midwest has many large research universities and the people are known for their hospitality and kindness. The USA is a multiracial society that is still absorbing new immi-grants, which makes it a very dynamic and exciting place to experience. While students must exercise caution in a few locations, streets and university campuses are generally clean and safe.

A Unique Higher Education System

USA universities and colleges may differ from those in your home country in several ways. For one thing, small class sizes are very common. There may be as few as 10 to 20 students in a class, giving you the personal attention you need in order to succeed. While in class, students are encouraged and expected to contribute to the discussion. Professors meet with students in their offices or even share coffee or meals with them. The close relationship between students and faculty serves to motivate students and fosters a personal approach to the curriculum. Studying in USA gives you the opportunity to gain a mentor in your given career field, an invaluable resource.

You may be surprised at your professors’ willingness to challenge authority. Academic freedom is one of the hallmarks of a U.S. university. You will notice different perspectives on instruction. Here, students are trained to observe and analyse a problem, then solve it. You will be expected to listen to your classmates and challenge their points of view. The goal is pragmatic: this will help you gain confidence and the ability to organize and present an argument.

Most American university students live on or near the school campus. You will have many opportunities to join planned and informal activities with other students, such as hiking, skiing, museum tours, excursions to new cities, and visits to local tourist attractions. Imagine visiting New York City and taking a ferry to the Statue of Liberty! Many schools have international student organizations and clubs that also plan activities. This interaction with other students will enhance your English language skills. Your fellow students will also teach you about American culture and about the diverse cultures represented on any U.S. university or college campus.

The Leading Edge

The United States is the leader in many areas of technology y and research. While studying here, you will be exposed to advanced technology y and research. You may be fortunate enough to meet, and even study, with the leading scholars in your chosen field. Why not study with the best?

Living and learning in the USA will exhilarate you. It will change the landscape of your life permanently. We guarantee that you will return home changed—more confident, more open and knowledgeable, making you a citizen of the world with a much broader perspective!

Academic Pathway Planning

The world is filled with various career choices ranging from medicine to mass communication, engineering to event management, marine biology to information technology. To select the right career from the various options available today, has become a daunting and challenging process. A large number of students continue to choose a career based merely on the fact that thier friends are doing the same thing or because their parents told them to do so. This, however, may not be the best way to go about it. We at Edwise understand the dilemma of the students while choosing the pathways for higher education. To cater to such needs Edwise conducts a vocational guidance program called Academic Pathway Planning.

Academic Pathway Planning involves assessment in 3 areas:

Aptitude: We assess different abilities which helps identify fields one will excell in
Interest: Helps us identify the kind of activities and work one would like to do
Personality: It involves multidimensional personality assessment that helps understand who one truely is, one's character traits, qualities and shortcomings.

WE USE THE LATEST INTERNATIONAL PSYCHOMETRIC ASSESSMENT TOOLS

Understanding these internal factors is very important and helps at the following stages:

• Subject selection
• Curriculum selection
• Stream selection
• Bachelors degree selection
• Masters degree selection
• Career change/shift

Methodology

• Identify the needs of students so that the appropriate test may be administered from the battery of test available with us.
• Paper-pencil psychometric test for students under 18 years of age.
• Online psychometric test is for students in degree college or professionals thinking of career shift.

Report
A comprehensive 9-10 page report provides:

• An explanation of the report and how to use it.
• Graphic scores of the aptitude, interest and personality tests.
• An overview narrative report and summary of the results.
• Self-improvement plan for personal development and growth.
• A consultation with a certified psychologist with a prior appointment.
• The results are not a benchmark but an indicator which gives you a platform to work on.
• Reports are given by qualified psychologists.

What Edwise Students Says...

“Prior to the APP test, the only interest I had was Aviation. After undergoing the APP test, I realized, I was not fit for Aviation. The tests showed me that my aptitude, interest and personality was leaning more towards Business Management. I liked the option and in consultation with Edwise, I am pursuing Bachelors in Business Management from LIBT, UK.”
Shweta Hanspal

“After my graduation, hundreds of emerging career options and different criteria's for admission by different institutions came as a nightmare to me. But after the APP test from Edwise I got a clear view about my career goals. The test helped me decide to go for a designing course which best suited my personality. So after consultation with a counselor from Edwise I am applying for Post Graduation in Designing from UTS Insearch, Australia.”
Yazhad Gheesta

“After passing my 10th Grade, I found it extremely difficult deciding my future aspirations. The Academic Pathway Planning Program test proved to be an excellent 'guide' in leading me to the right direction. Using the information the test provided, I was able to choose subjects in the International Bacculaureate program. I would recommend the APP test for all those who are uncertain about their future interests.”
Yash Somani

“I was in my last year of graduation and was confused between choosing MS in Computers or an MBA for my higher studies. Then I underwent the Academic Pathway Planning Program test and my test results showed me that my aptitude and interest is more inclined towards MBA. So now I am applying for MBA in Northeastern University, USA. APP test really cleared all my confusion and showed me the right path. “

• Ensure that you read your sections correctly and most importantly understand each question presented to you. Often, careless mistakes are made by overlooking an important detail or two. Pay close attention to the details presented to you
• If you are spending too much of time on a particular question, move on to the next one, if you have the time later, come back to it. However be sure to leave that particular question blank on your answer sheet as well
• The ACT does not penalize for wrong answers, so if you are unsure, select an answer by eliminating the other answer choices
• Finally, always go through your work, use your spare time to check if you've marked all the answers correctly onto your answer sheet. For the writing task, use your time to go over your essay and check to see if your spellings and writing style are grammatically correct

Things You Should Know Before Giving GMAT Exam

The GMAT is a standardized test for those who wish to pursue a graduate program in the field of management or business. One cannot fail on the GMAT, as every University has a different score requirement. Your GMAT scores depend on the type of school and program you will be applying to, so it is important that you plan your test date based on the your university deadlines.

Creating a study schedule, will help you prepare for the GMAT. You may find it difficult to manage your time between the GMAT and other school based activities, so ensure that you maintain a balance between the two. This will be helpful while preparing for the exam. Begin early and start preparing for the GMAT 6-7 months before the actual test date, this way you will have time to be familiar with your basic math concepts. Keep note of your weaker sections and focus on improving in them. Keep in mind that all sections of the GMAT do not have the same weightage.

The GMAT Prep software offers free verbal and Quant questions and provides explanations for the answers. There are a number of websites that offer free practice material online. This will help you familiarise yourself with the GMAT sections and also identify the sections that you find challenging. You need to have a strategic study approach to the GMAT rather than just answering questions. When you take the test, place yourself in similar test settings. Set aside 4 hours, take the assigned breaks, and keep your phone away and switched off. This will keep you from getting distracted while giving the test. Do not be disappointed if you've scored less in your practice tests, your scores will improve as you give more tests. Understand why you've answered the questions incorrectly, and concentrate on getting them right the next time.

The GMAT is question adaptive, the difficulty of each question is according to each person’s skill level. If a candidate answers a question correctly, the next question will likely be harder. Similarly, candidates will get an easier question if the previous question was answered incorrectly. The GMAT tests each question individually, so test takers cannot change their answers or return to previous questions.

The night before your exam, ensure that you know which identification proof you need to bring along, candidates have been turned away from testing centres if their identification did not match the name on the exam registration. Before giving the test, take some time to decide the schools you wish to apply to, this will save you time on the test day. Make sure that you know the location of your test centre, look up the directions the previous day, so you reach on time. Do not study anything new the night before, this has not proved to be helpful. Most importantly get a good night's sleep, you need to be fresh and well rested on the test day.

On the test day, it is important you carry the identification you registered under. All this needs to be done a day prior to your exam, do not wait until the last minute. At the exam centre you will be able to send your GMAT scores to five schools at no additional cost, however if you do not send them at the centre, there is a fee if you send them later on. If you happen to score less on the GMAT, you have the option of cancelling your test scores, however you will have to make this decision on the test day itself.

10 Things You Will Understand When You Start Living Alone

It's not as easy or fun as it seems...

It's hard to argue with the fact that there is no greater feeling than living on your own. The sense of freedom and independence that you get once you move out from a sheltered environment is exhilarating. The only person you are answerable to is you alone! So, if you have recently fled the nest and are living alone, here are certain things you will understand.

1. ANYTIME IS PARTY TIME!

You don't need your parents' permission to host your friends over. So whether it's a mid-week night cap or a crazy Saturday night party, you have the freedom to host an impromptu jig, anytime.

2. THAT ALSO MEANS ONLY YOU HAVE TO CLEAN UP AFTER YOUR PARTY

Since you won't be living with your folks, Mommy won't help clear the mess and neither will your younger siblings. Your friends would probably refuse to help too. So, it wouldbe just you and your handy broom that will have to tackle amessy room.

3. EAT WHAT YOU WANT

Eat anything your heart desires without worrying about what your parents will say. Every night can be pizza night and you can easily replace water with wine because -No.More.Nagging!

4. BUY GROCERIES AND COOK YOUR FOOD

This also means you will have to buy the groceries and instant noodles seem like a good idea but you can't eat them every day , right? The day you do decide to eat home cooked food, you will have to buy the groceries, wash them and probably cut them yourself too.

5. NO DISTURBANCE WHILE SLEEPING

Wake up and sleep when you want to, because there isno one noting everything that you are doing. You can also go for a sleep marathon.

6. RISK GETTING LATE TO WORK

Living on your own can also mean there would be no one to wake you up if you overslept. Because since `there is no one noting everything that you are doing', you will probably be late for work almost every single day.

7. HAVE YOUR OWN WAY WITH DECOR

You can decorate your house the way you want too. If you want to replace all bulbs with fairy lights, you can do it without any interference.

8. YOU WILL HAVE TO MULTI-TASK AS A PLUMBER, ELECTRICIAN AS WELL

You will have to worry about other little things, like theplumbing and electrical fittings of your house. From yourelectrical wires to taps and pipes, everything will be your responsibility now.It's safe to say that living alone is not an easy task. While on the surface of it, it may seem like all fun andgames but in reality, it's so much more than that. So, takethe first step in making the transaction towards living alone easier.

9. BUY THE STUFF YOURSELF

If you want your house to look like the way you want itto, it also means that you will have to buy everything youwant to decorate your house with.From utensils to lights, everything will have to be bought on your own!
