So.......my interview's finally over......surprisingly i wasn't as nervous as i thought i would be before the interview finally arrived.....n i dun mean like the few minutes be4 the interview....but like the few days be4 the interview......i tink dats the main reason why i din really put in any effort to revise m econs notes just in case they decide to ask me sum econs questions, in which they didn't......!!! Lucky me...........
Matt told me it was gonna be like 1 prof n i student.......but i ended up facing 2 profs instead....n the students in charged made a mistake so i ended up going in be4 my turn.......not that i'm complaining cos i tink if i were to wait longer that wud have made me even more nervous hahaha.....!!
Basically they just asked sum very general questions......like what are sum of the unis i have applied to.........sum leadership posts i have been in.........my choice of course........my preference when it comes to social issues......etc etc.......rather general........nth specific and nth to do wif the course i'm applying to............
And i only realised that it was not just an interview for my admission but also an interview to see whether i get a scholarship there or not......they just made it run concurrently..........but the way they handle n organise the interview it made it look like their scholarships mean nth hahaha cos for other scholarships i'm sure they will have many rounds of interview n it would def not be done just by profs alone........maybe it's cos of the small intake smu takes in lar...and as they said the ratio for scholarships at smu is sumwhere around 1 in 9 or 1 in 7.......in sum faculties it's as absurd as 1 in 5.........so basically scholars are everywhere in smu......so maybe dats why they took on a more laid-bck approach for the interview..........not that i'm complaining of course!
N luckily i din take Jason or Xiao J's advise n wear jeans there........! Cos i definitely DO NOT want to be in jeans for a scholarship interview!!! And the guy after me (coincidentally his name was also Jason.....but he's definitely much taller than dopey..... :P ) was also wearing formal wear like me....so i tink it'll definitely look bad on my part had i been in jeans n t-shirt......!!!
I'm actually veri worried that i can't continue wif my ASEAN scholarship at NUS.....n the worst thing is dat there's nth i can do.....cos there isn't even an application form.......so basically the onli thing u can do is sit bck n wait............
But if i'm fortunate enuf to get offers frm both unis, i really dunno which 1 to go to.........but i do noe that if i dun get a schoalrship offer frm SMU i am DEFINITELY not goin there......as much as i wud like to.......cos the fees there are so expensive............n the campus is sooooooo far away.......
and.................MAN U FREAKING WON 7 - 1 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm like shocked!!! Yah shocked....!! But happy wahahaha! :)
I'm looking forward to tmr's digital fair!!! I wanna buy stuff there although i dun have money hahaha! (And it rhymes wif irony...............)
