Like many others, I had a hard time getting into US graduate programs.

At first, I applied to more than four PhD programs, but got rejected by all.

The same thing happened when I tried again.

I felt lost and disappointed.

But in my third try, I changed my plan. I applied to two master's programs and two PhD programs.

Finally, I got into one master's program, and I was happy to join.

This tough journey made me want to help other international students like me.

When I applied for my PhD after my master's, I changed my plan. I applied to only two programs and got into my top choice.

Now, in the final year of my PhD.

Looking back to when I started, I can tell what the problem and what mistakes I did.

I don’t want you to do the same mistakes that I did.
