Lol, I never heard this wise saying before now haha. I was engaging him hoping he would make a solid case for himself. He ended up talking about my people (yes, I'm American now ) in a bad way and I wasn't gonna have that. Haha. Just kidding.

VISA APPROVED THIS MORNING 7:30
TRANSCRIPT

I passed her my passport, I-20 and semis receipt before she even asked

VO: Thank you, good morning
ME: Goodmorning
VO: where are you going in the US?
ME: I'm going to Texas Tech University, Lubbock Texas for my MS degree in food science
VO: how many schools did you apply to and name them
ME: 4; Texas tech, Utah State, Purdue and Penn State
VO: How many admits?
ME: Two. Utah and Texas
VO: so why did you chose Texas Tech over Utah State?
ME: Texas tech offers a special concentration on food safety and HACCP systems and I will be working with Prof xyz on the use of genomics and to study the epidemiology of food pathogens blah blah blah
VO: (stops typing and looks at me) wait, did you not apply to food science for the four schools
ME: I did
VO: (she became serious) so explain to me why Texas Tech, because both of the schools are offering the same thing
ME: ( stammered a bit, but she already put my passport aside, so no shaking), Texas Tech has a track within the MS program where food safety and HACCP is concentrated on
VO: (Relaxes) oh I see, food safety and food science ( she types) when did you graduate
ME: september 2015
VO: what school
ME: OAU
VO: did you write the GRE and what did you score
ME: Yes. 313 ( she nods and was asking herself "what else" while typing)
VO: Who is paying for this?
ME: my mother
VO: what does she do?
ME: she's a business woman, she has 8 warehouses and she provides haulage and logistics services for industries in the southwest
VO: (smiling) I'll be approving your visa blah blah, pick it up blah, take your I-20 to the POE, have a nice trip blah blah blah

i'm just grateful to God and this thread. Best of luck to you all. Just know about your school and don't cram, because the questions can be flexible and tricky. If you can pass your IT and project defense in Uni, you can do this too. The whole convo was about 4 minutes but it felt like days.
. God bless
