Thanks a lot! and i think so too.
But some people said the word 'consider' can not be used with the preposition 'as'.
Instead of the use of 'as', they argued 'to be' is correct.
in fact, that paragraph was found in English test and the answer has not been made a decision yet.
In conclusion, i wanna know about the grammatically right usage of the word 'consider'.

True. "Choosing" is better option than "Considering". I have checked this on www.sunphrase.com and more results was for: "Thank you for choosing" than for "Thank you for considering".

I matters little which phrase is listed as used more often. They are both correct - in the right circumstance.
