VO: What do you intend to do when you finish?

Me: Thank you sir. Have a great day.

I am open to answering any questions. Preferably here so everyone can learn as well.

Also I was so nervous but I did my best to sound confident and not be discouraged by the blue papers flying about.
Congrats bro… please If I may ask, considering that your funding is literally mixed, what did you fill in the DS160 form in the section "Person/Entity paying for your trip"?

Congrats to everyone stepping their foot to the consulate this week. I came across this page after I was delayed and am grateful for all the things I have been reading. Not to worry the heartbreaks might keep you worried for now but the congrats might make you run naked when it’s your turn. I got denied by the Korean VO in Abuja in august after about almost 2 mins of interview then 3 mins of typing I thought I did something wrong till I read a script of a lady he gave visa and denied her 6 months old baby/husband which was so sad. Anyways I want to say congrats to everyone going this morning. If I have any way of contributing I won’t as well hesitate. Thanks and good luck guys!!!
