Hello I would like to ask somebody, cause I would like to know if I shouldn't even try...

I am 22 years-old female from Czech republic. Last summer I was in USA on j-1 work and travel program. Now I am joining new university since September. I have a enough money on my bank account. My country is in ESTA program, but I would like to travel longer. Has anybody some experience with that situation? Thanks for responses, Mila.

Just use the VWP.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

VWP (ESTA), It is only for 90 days, I wanna travel longer.

If you are in university, how long can you travel? Ninety days is three months, anything longer is not a vacation, but a staycation. So, are you trying to go on a vacation or trying to stay?

Your chnace of getting a B2 for the desire purpose you have stated is slim, You can have mutliple entries with only 90 days stay each. You may need to re-visit your plan and visit and travel accordlly to the 90 day visa plan.

Maximum time for a visitor in the US is 90 days no matter what. Even if your visitor visa is 10 years, you are required to extend after 90 days or leave and come back.

That's totally false. B2 is given 6 months standard.

I would do VWP if I were you. Reason being if you apply for the B-2 and are denied you will likely have trouble using VWP in which case you wouldn't be able to visit at all.
