Me: Good Morning。
Vo: Morning, how are you?
Me: I‘m fine.
Vo: ……(开始打字,没有发问)
Me: (想说什么我已经想好了,她不问就自己说) I want to pursue a Ph.D. degree on food science at xxx University.
Vo: How old are you?
Me: (特别奇怪怎么问这个)Me? 22. (后来想到前面刚拒的那个好像高中没有毕业就去美国读大学,Vo有点警觉的意思。再次Bs中介。)
Vo: (开始看I20)Do you have any financial aid from the university or institution?
Me: No.
Vo: So, your father will support you?(这个地方是我的硬伤,I20表格上说是我父亲资助,但是实际上是我的姑姑资助。她果然问到了)
Me: Well. When I applied, I didn't think carefully about my support. I thought the University would offer me the financial aid. So I said my father. But actually, my aunt will support me.
Vo: (看表格)
Me: (突然想起我的study plan)I have the study plan, would you like to see it?
Vo: Yeah.(开始看我的study plan,这张纸是我前天晚上才打出来,但是起了大作用)
Me: (这个vo好像不怎么爱问,那我只能自己说)You may ask me why my aunt will surpport me. That's easy. (这个应该是她想听的,抬头看我)My aunt has her own business.(递进营业执照,税单等)She has the ability. And I'm the only boy in my big family with the surname XX. Most Chinese people think boys are better than girls. (说到这里vo大笑,感觉她认同的意见。这个时候我的感觉visa已经拿到一半了) So I will come back help my aunt run her company. Her company produce food additive. And I will learn food science in USA. So you see……
Vo: (营业执照根本没看,还了出来)Do you have any financial certifications?
Me: Yeah, of course. (把四个存折拿进去,本来还有财力证明的,没有给他。因为存折已经可以说明问题了,那个东西她要再给她)
Vo: (很仔细看存折,发现有一张在前几天扣了很多钱,就指给我)Can you explain this? Do you know why ……
Me: Well, it may be because her business things. The passbook are used for business, so the money comes in and comes out any time. (存折在去之前我研究过,因为确实有几笔大款是在这几天进出的。但是我想既然是做生意用的,那么钱的流动就是必然的,没有什么可奇怪的)
Vo: (点头,开始狂看我的study plan,一边看一边打字,我心里越来越有底了,只要她看这个,就绝对没有问题了)
Vo: (拿蓝条子)Do you have any close friends in USA?
Me: No.
Vo: Do you have any family member in USA?
Me: No.
Vo: You are approved. I give you this.
Me: (一切都在计划之中了,所以没觉得特别兴奋)Thank you very much. Have a nice day.
Vo: You too.
总结:
1:尽量不要说中文,我前面这两个学生,vo问第一句的时候他们就parden?结果vo就开始用不太擅长的中文给他们交谈。结果都被拒了。因此我觉得英文不管好坏,一定要坚持讲,给vo留下一个好印象。
2:vo不问不代表她没有问题。主动把她想问的说出来,占一点主动。
3:Study plan是前天晚上才打出来,一共可能才67百字,但是我相信vo看了这个对我的通过其了很大作用。我分了这么几点来写:My major, Why USA, Why this University, Why I come back. 每一个标题都用黑体加粗,后面写上几个简单句就可以了,因为不是卖弄文采的时候。Vo最关心的几个大问题都在上面提到了,同时写study plan的过程也是把自己的思路再清理一遍的机会。因此建议大家都写一下study plan。即使vo没有看,对和vo的问答也有帮助。
4:硬伤这个东西看你这么看,我的硬伤第二个问题vo就问到了。我实话实说,vo也不是特别计较。因此,自己的底气一定要足,能说什么就说什么。有时候你觉得是硬伤的东西,也许并不是vo关注的。
5:心态很重要。我前面这个男生一直问我英语不好有没有影响,心里有点紧张什么的。我就安慰他说没关系。不过后来他还是被拒了。这就是没有一个好心态的缘故。在去见vo前,要把vo可能会问的问题反复多想几次,要怎么答。首先要说服自己,才能说服vo。我觉得这个是一定要做的功课,不要等到见到vo的时候再发现这么多问题。
