You have 2 years gap in your studies and now you are applying for Germany student visa. Why?
I was not involved into any academic studies but was preparing for engineering entrance test but unfortunately could not make into good engineering college. So I decided to go for studies at an International level. I started preparing for my IELTS Test. As such I was involved in my career planning activates which is not a gap.
Why are you not pursuing your study in your home country? Are similar courses not available in your home country?
My first choice was to engineering course in a good institute in my home country for which I tried but could not succeed in getting into good institute. My next option was to study a degree in international management. There is Bachelors of Business administration available in my home country but the quality of education is not good. I strongly feel that if I continue my studies here I will not be able to develop my job skills which are main motive of qualification. Whereas a degree from a developed country like Germany would open various job opportunities for me.
