Special thanks to God for His Grace and favour, to everyone on this group, those who shared past transcript, to texrem for the mock interview.

Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 11 by Capitas7: 10:48am On Jun 08, 2017 |
Capitas7:When you a lion chases you, Mount Everest becomes a pebble - this I saw today. If the word "Grace" makes no meaning to you, then the US Embassy is not a place to experiment your philosophy. I passed the night at my brother's apartment in Akoka. Short night, I woke up at 12:59am, and searched for another nap that never came. I put a call through to my brother for the final mock he promised me - he wasn't in town (Texrem, I'm jokingly angry at you o, as you didn't reply my request for a mock interview nko?). I left his place at 4am. A good note for those planning on leaving their Yaba lodge early, I saw only three buses (the road was sleeping) moving between the hours of 4am and 4:40am, meaning it was too early. Got to the Consulate a few minutes after 5am. After all the checks, we were on the single line waiting for the VO's who started arriving around 7:03am (by now, 6:30am, 7:00am and 7:30am immigrant and non-immigrant candidates were muddled together). I began to wonder how nairalanders observed and kept figures with pictures because immediately the interview started with the first set of applicants, I went blank, and didn't even want to see anyone's denial or approval. The brother in front of me no try at all. If you're reading this, bros, your energy was much, and your blood hot; kilode? I almost left the position behind him for another window. See as bros just dey talk like say e dey address the entire applicants, with much energy and hot blood. I heard two immigrant applicants say why is he portraying himself as being desperate? and the other replied this is serious and funny. I heard the VO ask him what do you know about this school? Brother's answer was quite superficial, then the VO made the comment "those are general knowledge about US schools, can you give me something more convincing?". Too serious or not, Window 6 approved big bros - this brings to mind the saying of Lagosismyhome that what sounds inadequate to someone's ears might be what a particular VO wants to hear i.e. only the VO decides - and I was happy for him. I just dey fear say this brother don spoil show for person like me wey dey talk with low tone. Immediately after him, I approached Window 6. Sorry for the epistle, but the truth is God's Grace made my transcript limited to just three questions thus VO: Good morning sir Me: Good morning sir VO: pass me your I20 and your passport Me: (I did as instructed) VO: So why Florida institute of technology? Me: FIT internship presents graduate Biotechnology students the options of working in a research lab or in a commercial company, of which I prefer the first and most of the other schools don't have the option (VO didn't allow me mention the other point I had) VO: How do you intend to go about your studies? Me: A total of 30 credits are required to obtain an MS in Biotechnology in FIT spread over a period of 24months. (I mentioned two courses and how many units per session) VO: They're offering you a very good scholarship. Me: Yes, true (low tone). VO: What qualified you for this? Me: My SOP, GRE scores and my undergraduate CGPA (there's nothing special about any of them, just average) VO: okay, your visa has been approved, ensure...at the address circled on this slip. Do have a good day, and welcome to USA Me: Thank you sir. I got home to discover I missed my dad's 6 calls sometimes around 5am. He told me he felt he had to wake me up, in case I was still asleep. Same with my brother who has been really supportive from the beginning. A big thank you to Lagosismyhome, Walspring, Texrem, Topdee, Zeng, Electronic, and everyone here. 25 Likes 2 Shares |
