Feeling Nervous After Planning For Graduate School

Southern United States
Since I want to go to graduate school in the US after graduating from college, and I'm gonna be a junior next week so I was planing on preparing TOEFL and GRE. There are several problems which makes the preparation more difficult.


The first will be the stupid laws on military obligation that strictly restrain any men who's above 18 from going abroad. In other words, we can only leave the country for a very limited period of time(3 months?) if we haven't served in the army, so I must to spend a whole year as a soldier after college graduation.

I wasn't feeling assured after making the plan. Instead, I felt a bit nervous since I found out that if I want to go to the graduate school right after the military service, I'll need to pass both TOEFL and GRE, organize all the data needed for application in senior year. After that, send them out for application on the weekends during the military service. BUSY!!

Although there's another option: sending out the application after the service. I will end up with a whole year without any plans since I won't be able to enroll the fall semester right after finishing in army. So the 1st choice is still the best choice!

Stop worrying about it and get moving!!
