套磁了那么多第一次收到回信QAQ还是隔天就收到，先给港大老师点个赞！！

不过感觉看起来好像不是很乐观的样子。。。因为没有经验，看版上申请Mphil的也少，我还是文科（公共管理），翻了好多帖子还是迷茫，所以踌躇再三还是冒昧来发帖了，如果有经验的小伙伴愿意指点一二，真的是万分感谢！！！

背景也稍微提一点吧，虽然不知道有没有什么参考意义0.0 国内某C9政治学专业，GPA渣渣86左右，T102，日语N1，有一篇渣渣国际会议论文，打算申香港和日本，然而套磁不顺QAQ今天是第一次收到回复真是又激动又惶恐。虽然老师说有可能收我，但感觉还是很忐忑。如果大家能提一些更有针对性一点的努力方向的建议真的感激不尽了！！

Thank you for writing. Frankly, I'm somewhat overstretched now given the students already working under me, but I may take one new student next year. Allow me to be specific and clear so you can decide how best to proceed.

Different faculty members operate differently. My usual practice is to shortlist and interview about three applicants after the Main Round has closed, and take in one of the three.

If you like, you can send me right away a short one-paragraph statement of your area of interest, plus a short sample of research (don't rewrite anything; just send something you already have finished/published). I will read them and tell you either (1) our interests are too different for me to be a suitable supervisor, or (2) there is some chance I may be able to shortlist you, though it's not guaranteed.

If (1), you should still feel free to contact other faculty members whose interests are closer to you. If (2), you can list my name as one of your potential supervisors. Nonetheless feel free to include other faculty names as well; I don't mind as long as you think that may enhance your chances -- it might.

Hope this clarifies and helps you plan better.
