Notes
I was interviewed on 3 April by two Chinese professors. One of them (the senior and very aged one) asked a lot of theoretical questions, but I didn't understand his accent, as it was a pure Chinese English accent. Even after he repeated a question for the fourth time, I replied I don't know, though I didn't understand his question. The interview was around 45 minutes. It was my first interview, and I was just as nervous. After 22 long days of quietness, they replied, "No." I am sad. IELTS 7.0; Papers 3; No GRE, Centrally applied, BSc 3.32, MSc 3.25.
