Sharing this again as the written exam is over now and you may start thinking about the viva phase...
আপনি যদি রিটেন এ কোনমতে টিকে থাকেন৷ তাহলে আপনার ভাইভার পারফরমেন্স খুব একটা ইম্প্যাক্ট ফেলবেনা। উদাহরণ দেইঃ রিটেন এ ১৮০ জন যদি টিকে এবং শেষ পর্যন্ত যদি ১২০ জন নেয়া হয় (নরমালি রেশিও টা এরকমি থাকে সবসময়) তার মানে হলো ভাইভায় ৬০ জন যাবে। এখন রিটেনে টেকা ১৮০ জনের মধ্যে আপনি যদি ১৮০ তম হয়ে থাকেন তাহলে আপনার জন্য আল্টিমেটলি ১২০ এ উঠে আসা অল্মোস্ট ইম্পসিবল, যদিনা ভাইভায় আপনি এক্সট্রাওরডিনারি কিছু করেন। এখন ভাইভায় এক্সট্রাওরডিনারি কিছু করবেন কীভাবে? খুব জেনারেল টাইপ একটা ভাইভায় আপনি যত ভালভাবেই সব আন্সার করেন না কেনো, সেটা এক্সট্রাওরডিনার

Tips for Viva: Be confident. Trust me, your accent doesn’t need to be very good, your fluency doesn’t need to be top notch. They will just see if you can express yourself confidently and consistently. নিজেকে কনফিডেন্টলি এক্সপ্রেস করা তোহ বুঝলেন, কন্সিস্টেন্টলি এক্সপ্রেস করাটা কিন্তু বেশি ইম্পরট্যান্ট! আপনার উত্তর গুলি যাতে একটা আরেকটাকে কন্ট্রাডিক্ট না করে। থিম যাতে সেম থাকে। This is the most important bit..
