    I just realized how unwise it was for me to gamble all I had on the tiny chance of being granted a MEXT scholarship. I didn't enroll into any other college, and now registrations for colleges in my school are no longer open. I'd have to wait until next year, if I don't get this scholarship, to continue my education.

    konnichiwa Kem chan, I really love the fact that you start your videos with a full japanese prologue, makes me love them more, because I love the language that is. so I am basically rewatching this video, since I last did in 2017 when I made my first attempt to apply for a scholarship for undergrad programs, but failed for poor language proficiency by then. I was really shocked, because I always heard that there were all-english programs but the embassy (of my home country, Angola) told me after an awekward phone call interview that I had to be really really fluent in japanese. So I had no choice but to enroll in a local institution.
    But I wont give up just yet, japan is a childhood dream for me, I will apply for a postgraduate program once I am done in 2 years, hopefully I master my nihongo by then

      A couple of tips for everyone who is going on interview.
      1. Learn your research by heart.
      2. Prepare sample questions that you may be asked (100% you will talk briefly about your research and about yourself in general)
      3. Everything will work out, the main thing is not to be afraid.

    hi Loretta ♡ I love your videos and I wanted to say thank you SO MUCH for all the things that you teach us with them and all your advices. I wanted to ask, what advice would you give for approaching Japanese teachers for the first time? like, what should I tell them in the first message? I feel like the first contact is so important and I'm kind of scared because I don't know what I really need to tell them. I would be the happiest if you could answer my question, I really hope you see this🤞🏻🥺 and again thank you so so much for all the information🌸🌷💗

      @kemushichan  4 года назад +2

      Yep! Filming a video on this today but basically I started with a list of national Universities (these are the ones that have MEXT) and started looking through these to see what programs they had. I also searched topics close to what I liked, in Japanese, and added the search term 研究 to find professors who had published similar work in the past. You essentially just need to go through each school so it will require some elbow grease.

    Hey, great video! I'm sorry for not asking this through twitter but I don't really use it.
    I actually got the same scholarship as you and I'll be going to Tokyo in October!
    In my case I don't know Japanese so my first 6 months will be towards learning the language.
    What I'd like to ask you is regarding the "research student" status.
    I believe that as I'm going in October I can remain as a "research student" for a total of 18 months (6 of those are language school) before applying for the masters program.
    Did you use all of the given time as a research student (24 months for April, 18 months October) and then applied to your masters or if not, did you not use the full time by choice?
    On another note, not sure if it's the type of video you'd like to make, but I'd love to see a video of you telling what you had to go through as soon as you landed (mext related).
    Regardless, thanks for the videos!
    Sorry about my rusty English.

    Hiii Kemushiii, I have stuff I wanna ask ya....I just came from watching ur other videos....so the questions here are kind a mix of different topics
    1. If I want to study in Japan for university and to learn the language at a language school, should I apply to the university I want to go after I finished language school or apply and take gap year for it instead?
    2. I'm still a bit confused about the tax thingy for the second year living in Japan related to the part- time thing u mentioned in ur other vids... Can you elaborate on it more? or is there are an existing video talking it?
    3. Do you think language school is worth it? Should I like complete N5 or N4 on my own first and just learn the rest in Japan for a year?
    4. Tips on renting in Japan? Does most furniture comes with the apartment? (I'm worried one day I come there and only to meet an empty room 😅)
    5. For scholarship should I apply after going to language school?
    These are my question for now....Thanks if u see this and answer it 🙏

Cause you mentioned important things like looking into what's a hot topic in your area etc. One last question (sorryyy!!), did you get the scholarship the first time you applied?
