Other Details

The Admission process has been so draining that you are almost at the end of your tether emotionally, physically and mentally when the day which you have been awaiting for a long time finally dawns. You have cleared the preliminary hurdles, are short-listed, have evaded the numerous piles of the 'rejected' applications and have received an interview call.

You feel jubilant, but the euphoria is edged with panic and gives way eventually to a serious attack of nervousness. This is especially true for students who have no prior professional experience and have never faced the interview board.

The interview is crucial in the admission process:

It is the committee's first meeting with the candidate. The board gets a feel of the personality behind the paperwork they have read and assessed so far.

It is golden opportunity to put his best foot forward and in the door for the student. He can avail of this chance to press home his advantages, clear the doubts, answer queries and leave a favorable impression in person. 

There is many a slip between the cup and the lip in the entire admissions process. The fact that the candidate has made it this far is a definite encouraging factor and it is a perfect occasion for him to convey his enthusiasm, suitability, adaptability and fervor for admission to the very people who have the power to decide. 

Sometimes, even the most powerful documentation and strong admission packaging is rendered useless when the committee meets with the candidate and finds him lacking. This could be for reasons as inane and simple as his ignorance of simple knowledge such as do and don'ts of interviews, deportment issues or monosyllabic answers.
