Thursday, April 24, 2008,1:11 PMwent for LKC scholarship interview at SMU tt day. ohh btw i got accepted in SMU biz and social sciences double degree already but quite hesitant to take it up. cos heard that SMU is the most stressful school and sometimes the seniors have to stay up till 3am to complete their projects! i sure dont want tt!
most likely ill go for Ntu's communication studies. but they havent got back to me so quite worried..hopefully they accept me! cos i thk i didnt do too well for the interview..woopxX. it was about the Olympic torch event and i didnt read up much on it so...=X
hahaa back to the SMU scholarship interview..the scholarship conditions are so tempting..3 overseas trip! woo! but dont think i can make it to the second round! the 1st interview was designed smth like the Apprentice. we were given the task to design a bottle for the bottle convention fair and come up with a proposal to market our product. quite fun i guess..made some new friends but me being the quiet me didnt respond much to the qns posed by the seniors and so i guess didnt stand out much. only 50 out of the 200plus ppl who participated would move on to the 2nd round soo...X.x
haha then also had MICA ( Ministry of Information, Communications and the Arts) scholarship to go for. haha i seriously dont mind working for MICA! the building is so vibrant, colourful and the people there are very friendly! hahaha for the first round we had an Assessment test. First, I was told to go for a 35mins informal interview so they can understand me better. it was quite ok though i wasnt prepared..just crapped some of my experiences etc. second round was this group discussion thingy. we were given a case study to read and we were supposed to discuss about it as a group after tt. third we were given 45mins to prepare a ppt ( individually) about the case and to present it to the 'examiner' it was followed by a 10mins Q&A session. tt kinda summed up my AC exercise. lol..guess this is a fair way to judge a candidate. at least the soft spoken ones are given a chance to shine too! unlike other group interviews like SMU's and NTU comm studies where the outspoken ones are the most likely ones who would get shortlisted.
got a call ytd tt i was shortlisted for the final MICA interview!! =DD going for it later on at 3pm! scaryscary! haaha it would be a conducted by 4 high ranking directors of MICA! my first panel interview..oh myyy..
wish me luckk!
