7.2 典型签经 本节所有签经都摘自水木清华BBS 签证版 7.2.1 签经一
5 .16签F-1被拒经过 个人背景:Austin 经济学全奖 (Tsinghua Master) Me: Good morning. VO: How are you? Me: Fine, thank you. Do you need the card? VO: Yes,thank you. So did you get your master degree? Me: Yes, I got it last year. VO: What did you do? Me: I worked in XXX for half a year. Then I quit this job since I knew I was going to get offer. 点评: 签证实战强调一种进攻性,也就是主动性,如果能把VO引导到你所擅长的或者优秀的方面,成功率肯定会增加。 比如,VO问 so did you get your master degree?你可以适当主动的说:Yeah, after received my master degree last year, I continued the research in XX area…(Then, I found myself…so I decide to…) 括号中内容视VO的表情而采用. 这样VO可能接下来就问你XX 领域的问题,这不是你所擅长的吗? 作者一个巨大的失误就是给了VO一个逻辑,因为offer所以出国,而且用了一个很不舒服的词quit, 什么是quit?只有不好的东西才quit,这不是否定自己吗? 而美国人很强调的一点就是个人发展的连续性。 VO: But what if you cannot get Visa. Me: I will apply to a PhD program in China, in Tsinghua University. I just want to study. VO: How many schools do you apply to? Me: 7. 4 give me admissions and 2 give me financial aid. VO: Your TOEFL and GRE? Me: Here you are. 点评: 这个备用计划没有任何说服力,既然没有凭证,你甚至可以说美国大使馆请你当VO?! VO: (看了一眼,递出来)Do you have any emails with your future advisor? Me: I don't have advisor now. It will be decided in the second year after I job in this program. VO: So do you have any interested area to study? Me: …This program has several professors, who did good work in this field. I would like to work with them. 点评: VO其实已经对作者彻底失望了,为什么不说? For sure, you know what; I have discussed …(专业)with the Professor in this program for XX months. This is our email ... Here are emails; you can find that they REALLY expected I could work with them. 如果没有email, 甚至可以打印几篇专业国际的国际论文,上面写点你的点评,再请美国这个学校的教授来点评。(记住,美国教授永远欢迎学术上的讨论,这不同于套辞。)这就是你们的专业讨论,这就是你的兴趣体现。 VO: What's your plan after graduation? Me: I would like to find a position in Tsinghua because I want to be a professor and an economist. VO: (翻看表格。) Me: I have been in Tsinghua for 6 years and know the professors here very well. 点评: 归国计划还是如此老套,甚至逻辑有问题,因为…want to be a Prof…所以回国……那么为什么不在美国当Prof呢? 很多人用所谓人情关系(比如,认识Tsinghua XXX Prof.)说明自己回国的可行性,但是你自己信么?就好比,你们宿舍楼下有个卖煎饼的老伯,因为每天都买,所以5年后你会回学校专门看望这位老伯? 其实美国人更加看重个人利益的驱动, 可以从这个角度想想你的回国计划。 VO: (迅速盖章)Sorry, I cannot issue your Visa. Me: Would you please give me the reason? VO: I cannot believe you will be back. Sorry.(很真诚的样子). Me: Thank you anyway. 点评: 我们多年的签证辅导发现,中国学生(F-1)的一个共同特点是有限的阅历和经验,从而不擅长于掩饰自己内心的想法。可能在你斩钉截铁地告诉VO你会回来,可同时VO却从你的眼睛里看到了你的欺骗。 我们的建议就是要说服VO,首先要说服自己。相信自己一定要回来,肯定回来,为什么不回来?思考一下这一点,当你对自己所做的事情坚信不移的时候,你对它的激情随之增长;当你的热情膨胀时,你的动机也随之增长。那么你的成功率也随之上升。 |
