Essential Interview Rules

1. Absolute Honesty

Never fabricate achievements, hobbies, or reasons for academic setbacks. Assessors cross-examine details instantly.

2. Composure Under Pressure

If asked a deliberately provocative or difficult question, take a brief breath and answer courteously with logic.

3. Acknowledging Limits

If you genuinely do not know a factual answer, state "Sir, I do not know / cannot recall at this moment" instead of guessing.
