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

Tips and Suggestions:
How did you prepare?

I used went through all possible questions they would’ve asked me, and not gonna lie I did use chat gpt but only on how to start out my answers.
I also did a lot of mocks and also using the telegram group,
I’d say don’t try to by heart stuff that’s online?

Cause they’ve probably already heard all the answers already. Just speak slowly and confidently.
And don't prepare long 8 marks answers 2 marks and 4 marks is fine

He was also giving rejections and was very calm and patient

The 19 counter was the other way he was asking continuous questions and rejecting even after lot questions and he was giving fast rejections too

Overall today many approvals were given with few rejections as far as I've seen
