I've got 1 year left on my STEM OPT and I haven't had luck with the H1B lottery. I plan on going to grad school next year. How good are my prospects at going to a top mba program with only 3yrs exp?

MBA will not give you any OPT if you have already used it up. The only way you can get OPT is to go for a higher level degree (PhD). Better option is to move to another country

Dash this comment aside if it is fallible, but there is something here that has been overlooked. Competence is not regurgitation and memorization.

I am seriously worried. I am doing my co-op and my supervisor is not giving me an easy time.

I feel bullied and very anxious. I am afraid she can jeopardize my visa with a bad evaluation. I have been working at midnight, on Sunday mornings but I am human, I make mistakes, she just blames me instead of teaching.
