Why did they move yours? Well, they ask sort of basic questions like why choose this programme and what do you know about project management and what are your plans in the future. Then if you have any enquiry about the programme you could ask them in the phone conversation. Gosh, I really don't know about mine. Best of luck to you!

Btw what is your first degree?

They didn't really give me a reason!? They said due to some unexpected commitment. Ah good luck to you too!! i'm sure you will have done great. I am kind of nervous. I did Management & Marketing, How about you? Was the chat super-short?

Hahaha I'm sure they have hell lots of applicants to deal with at this stage. The guy who interviewed me was a senior lecturer tho, not the Pryke guy. Initially, I was expecting the chat to last about 15 to 20 mins long, that's why I've prepared a list of testimonies so I wouldn't run out of points or ideas. Guess my nerves had screwed it up!

Mine was engineering. Did you do your first degree in the UK? Let me know how it goes for you tomorrow.
Ah okay, sweet well hopefully It goes okay!! Yeah I gotta get preparing!! I had written a bunch of stuff as well about like recent construction projects etc, but I may as well just concentrate on why I wanna do the course! Yeah I did, I went to Royal Holloway University of London, how about you? Yeah I will let you know how it went, thanks man!
