Is it ok to skip the DVDs and the Goljan audio? Also, if you would tell your score, it would help a lot in deciding whether I should go on your footsteps. Regards, Pooja Hello Faizan,

At the POE you will need to justify your visit be it an observership or just holidays. People have done that in the past. It usually takes around a months time to get I797 sorted out with premium processing. It has got nothing to do with name because it would not go in clearance. You would be living on your valid I797.

I have few doubts regarding change of status from B1/B2 to H1 . As i have heard we need to have a valid I-94 till 1st july to be eligble for status change to H1. And how likely is it that we wont have any problems at POE while enetering US just after the match cuz we would be in the US for interviews till mid Jan. So there is a short very short interval of 2 months in between. Wont that be a problem at POE ? And what is the time required for change of status in the US even with premium processing . I have an extremely common name as yours . So what would you suggest me ?consular processing or change status to H1 ? Great Job guys . I have few doubts regarding change of status from B1/B2 to H1 .

Dear Dr.Rehman - as far as academy courses are concerned, you can only find them in england. pakistan has no institutions for it as far as i know. try to get your knowledge refreshed and practice lots of emqz and mcqz. a postgraduate degree is very useful in the CV, specially for getting a job later. but it has nothing to do with your gmc registration.
