Applicant notes
What practice feels like before the real interview
“The mock interview felt surprisingly real. The officer asked follow-ups on my funding answers — exactly what happened at the embassy.”
Sara M.
F-1 Student Visa
“I practiced three times before my B1/B2 appointment. The debrief showed me where my answers were too vague.”
Daniel T.
B1/B2 Visitor Visa
“The Schengen practice covered itinerary and insurance questions I hadn't prepared for. It saved a weak answer on the real day.”
