The interviewer  already know your name based on the screening form you submitted to him, so if you want to answer  this question, make sure you say the exact name as in your screening form.  Don't start mentioning names that are not in the screening form. Take note.


2. WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THIS SCHOOL?

This question is asked to know if you really know about the school.  There are lot of people who don't  know a bit about the university they  applied for.  For you to answer this question, you should made some little research about the school,  that why Google is your close friend. For example, you can answer  the question  like this, "based on my research, i discovered that this school has experience lecturer and good equipments which will aid your education", as simple as that.  So just be creative.


3. WHY DO YOU THINK WE SHOULD ADMIT YOU?

The aim of this question is to know what will be your impact to the school if eventually admitted. Think of what you will say to convince  the interviewer and remember to be creative. For example, you can answer the question like this, " i think you should admit me because due to my secondary school records,  I've always engage in school clubs,  so i will make impact  to the school by engaging in relevant club and obey rules and regulations of this university". It is not compulsory to say the truth,  just be creative and you will be good to go.


4. WHAT IS YOUR BEST SUBJECT?

This question  is asked just to test your level of intelligence.Make sure you tell them the subject you are very good at,  because you will definitely be asked a question  from it. Also make sure the subject you pick is related to your course or else they will consider you as someone who is not serious. For example, you want to study physics and you picked economics as your best subject. I hope you understand  what i am passing across.
