In Between the last 4 questions and answers she typed a lot . My elder brother is studying in the same university . but i didn't get the chance to say that to the officer.
So can anybody tell me what is wrong in this interview?
What was my mistake ?
Should I apply immediately with this same profile for the spring semester ? because my class is on the 16th of January and I have 1 month left . Should I try again If i get a date in January ?
cause i didn't find any mistakes . and this lady rejected almost 9 candidates in front of me.
Or do I have to change this university and scholarship and try again in the fall 2024?
