Suggestions for Students going for Visa Interview

Do not copy answers from mock interviews or ChatGPT .
Frame your own answers depending on what is your goal? What did you study previously? If you have work experience try to align a lot of things from your work experience as well.

Don’t follow master refusal news on various groups. Many people are trying to create fear.
Focus on your profile do not listen to anybody else
That would be my suggestion
