This review if entirely based on my experience. So, I am an Indian doing masters of science at Polimi and had applied for US visa to visit my brother. When i was in the queue, the security guy came and of all he just asked my passport (I assume its because i was not white) i do agree that its good to clear the doubts but in that case some times a bit cautions should be taken, he could just have asked one or two more people along with me that would may have avoided the obvious racial treatment. If this was not enough, while entering the front door, there was an another guy who started giving me instructions in Italian i requested him to please speak english so that i could understand , he did but he spoke something that was beyond understanding . When he entered there is an another guy (he was nice though) near the x ray thing he asked me to give jacket and bag so i did and since on airport you need to give wallets he offered that and the moment i took my wallet the same guy who had given the instructions started yelling at me as if he is gonna shoot me . I seriously do not understand what made me yell. But in any case racism is everywhere so could not complain but my sincere advice apply to this consulate only if you are from here ....
