Studying Abroad Interview: How should I prepare myself?

Question

I will be studying in Germany or Finland in Grade 11 and there will be people interviewing me in a few weeks. How should I prepare myself? What kind of questions will they ask? What kind of outfit should I wear to the interview as a guy?

Here's some questions similar to the ones which I have been asked when I was applying for my school. They're giving me headaches!

1. Why should we sponsor you but not other students?

2. Why are you choosing this country but not the others?

Answer 1

While preparing for a interview, the first and only rule is

"Whatever happens, Don't panic.."

1) You can sponsor me because I am a self-motivated person and I have a zeal to learn. I am very intent on learning and I will come out with flying colors. This was a childhood dream of mine and I would definitely use this opportunity to the fullest.

2) This is not a decision I took over night. I did a lot of research on the countries which offer good quality education. I rounded up on some 5 countries which I would like to go and this country was in that list. So, I made up my mind to apply and go to this country.

This is what I would say if I attend it. Take the points which you like. Be cool. You will definitely get through.
