<p>I’ve heard many rumors of how it is nearly impossible to study abroad at harvard. I was wondering if any of these rumors are true and if anyone would like to share their experiences on studying abroad.</p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
<p>It’s quite possible, it’s just that Harvard is such a magnetic place that not many people do during term-time. (I’m assuming you’re talking taking a semester or year abroad.) My impression is that getting credit is easy; my concentration (in the social sciences) was pushing it as an option, and I know Social Studies has a special semester program with Cambridge King’s College, for one example. So if you want to, it’s there, just Harvard makes it harder to want to than some other places.</p>
<p>And if you’re talking about taking a summer abroad, then the “nearly impossible” thing just becomes completely false. So many people do it (I haven’t yet, but I hope to this summer), and there’s also tons of extra funding available. I think literally 40-50% of my friends were abroad this summer? Some of those were working, but it was not an insubstantial group.</p>
<p>Hey 
I’ve done my 0-levels. I took 11 subjects out of which I got 8A’s including 3A*‘s. .I’ve done internships, taken part in declamations, debates and participated in other competitions too.Currently, I’m in the first year of A-level. I’ve taken world history, sociology, economics and maths. Well, I don’t know whether I’ve gone for the right subject choice. I basically want to go to IVY’s league, or probably a renowned university which ACTUALLY polishes my skills, and gives scholarships too. But, I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO? THE ROAD MAP? I don’t know whether my subjects are of scope or not. Which university should I apply to? What should I do in future that earns me a comfortable living, and is prestigious too. I’m afraid because I’ve seen many who work extraordinarily hard but they end up living a miserable life.
Here in Pakistan, we lack counselling. :’( Please help me with sound pieces of advices so that I come out of this mental stress.
God bless you.</p>
