This video was an underappreciated gem and helped me a lot in my grad school essay.

Apologies for the odd camera activity at the beginning of the video. When we tried to trim this out, the syncing of the audio and video was off, so we thought it best to leave in this little bit of weird reality. Enjoy the rest of the video!

Hi...greetings..I am working in a immigration firm ( academy dept) which deals mostly in student visa cases. I am curious to write on SOP but due to inefficient resources I can't develop myself.


Humble request ...to help me in arranging resources for instance : any good book by author, or samples with efficacy available?.
Thanks!
