我便主动提出来了。我说: So i'm gonna be straightforward OK? Unfortunately, my parents are not able to support me ..... But i will work hard to pay the department back.
如果条件可以,最好事先彩排一下。我之前把我的材料发给了两个外教,先后做了两次模拟的面试,每次大约50分钟。虽然外教不是我的专业方面的专家,但对于我准备面试还是有了挺大的启发,比如一些基本的问题: 'Tell me sth. about yourself“,“what do you see yourself in ten years"(这个问题在正式的面试里,教授也问我了!!)而且,通过模拟面试,我自己也收获了信心,因为心中有数了。
