Me(M): Hello, nice to meet you.
Interviewer(I): Hello. May I see your high school transcript please.
M: Sure, here it is.
I: What are your favorite subjects?
M: My favorite subjects are English and Chemistry.
I: What do you learn in Chemistry?
M: High School students have studied some basic problems of organic chemistry and some intermediate problems of inorganic.
I: What problems of inorganic chemistry do you study?
M: Well, we covered most of the main groups in the periodic table, mostly metallic elements: their properties, usage, natural states, reactions, etc.
I: What is your father’s occupation?
M: My father is a police man.
I: And your mother?
M: My mother is a judge.
I: How did you get accepted into Amherst College?
M: I first learned about Amherst when one of the school’s officials visited High School for the Gifted and since then I have been trying very hard to prove that I am worthy of admission: taking TOEFL, SATs, maintaining a decent GPA while participating in some extra curricular activities.
I: Did you get any other scholarships?
M: Yes, I also got a scholarship from UIC, Yonsei University, Korea.
I: Well, I wish you good luck in the next four years. Amherst is a great school; getting accepted is already wonderful, but obtaining a generous scholarship like this is even more fantastic. And be careful not to engage in drugs or drinking too much. Find challenging courses. Take my word for that.
I(assistant): please come back 3 pm tomorrow afternoon for your visa.
M: Thank you very much and have a nice day.
