Post-MARA 'interview'
Bismillah.
I am writing here on a fine 18th April morning and this means that yesterday has passed. But I don't know how to put it in what way, whether failing-ly or successfully.
When I arrived there, I had to fill in some forms which were supposedly filled at home-but catastrophe happens all the time, don't they? that I had to rush filling in the forms at once. But Allah knew better that I have prepared the significant documents to be passed to them. But still, I didn't bring my latest photograph, so I ended up giving them the only photo that I carried with me which was taken when I was 6 years old -___-"
And one more thing, they said that the me in the IC is not exactly me. Tahu lah muka sememeh macam apa, gelap gila muka dalam tu, oily skin and all, but don't say that right in my face, can you?
Sedih tahu, sedih. But just maybe those are some of the signs that Allah would give me the chance to study there? I really hope so. Like He said, with every hardship there is relief.
Surprisingly, there wasn't any interview held (like the previous years). We had to answer 100 questions; 50 in Bahasa & the other 50 were in English plus a 50 words (or less) essay on 'How do you see yourself in 5 years time?'.
That is called a psychometric test. I really don't know how are they going to pick the scholars. Maybe they will rank us based on the scores that we get and they will organize the real interview session afterwards...ke? Seriously, I don't know.
This doesn't end yet baby. Kena usaha lagi. Moga dapat berita baik on 10th May nanti. Aminnn.
