F1 Visa applying.

Hey everyone, I really need some advices from you who can suggest me what to do is the best so I don't get rejected again applying for F1.

Here's what happened in 2011:

I was in the U.S. for 12 months total with my B1 visa from 2010 to 2011, 6 months each. In between I was in Taiwan for less than 4 months.
The second time I went back to the U.S., I had a little trouble at the customs, the policeman told me to get a F1 visa if I want to study in the U.S. and gave me 6 months again which I didn't know that it would be a huge problem for getting F1 in the future if I stayed the full length.
So I got back in Taiwan in April, 2011 and was planning to get a F1 visa using a language school's I-20, first time I went, I got rejected, the VO told me that I haven't established the ties in my country. I thought since he didn't even check my docs, I might have a chance of getting a F1 visa if I go the second time. So I went, and of course got rejected again for the same reason.
Then I stayed in my country until now, haven't even leave the country once.
I applied colleges in the U.S. since I haven't gotten my undergraduate degree in Taiwan and am now waiting for an acceptance. I'm also working all these time and hoping that I can get a recommendation letter from my job in the future when I'm going to apply my F1 visa.

Now my problem is that what else can I do more to have a higher chance of getting my F1?

I have a sponsor in the U.S., I have no bad records and I was in the administrative process the first time I went to apply my visa back in 2011. I always left on time even though I stayed full length in the U.S. 2 times for 6 months.

I will have my recommendation letter from my job in the future, and I'll have my college I-20 soon.

Is there anything I can do to fix my situation? Do I have a chance of getting my visa??

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you.
 
The only thing you can do is develope and document strong social and financial ties to RPPRC. That way, when you next apply for an F-1 visa, you may be able to overcome 214(b).

Was there a particular reason why the officer told you that? If you were studying (or working) in US with a B visa, that is a problem.

...I always left on time even though I stayed full length in the U.S. 2 times for 6 months.

You have spent a total of one year in US; that is a good reason why the CO thinks you don't have any strong ties to your country. I agree with the Triple Citizen, you need to prove that you have stronger ties, like a job offer for after you return, or that your family has a business you want to take over, or a fiancee/wife waiting for you, house ownership etc. something along these lines to show the CO you are coming back to your country.
