Working on a series of videos for F1 visa interviews, I have a lot to say about this topic. Biggest mistake I see is that applicants are not knowledgeable about their intended program of study. So don't make that mistake. Apart from that, here are a few tips for now: 1. Be organized with your documents - Visa interviews are very short and Consular officers don't have much time to spend on one applicant. 2. Answer questions truthfully and concisely - I see this mistake all the time, where applicants talk too much when answering questions. That's understandable, as when we get nervous, we talk too much. But this is not a good thing here, as everything you say is being judged. So try to keep calm, answer the questions as briefly as possible. 3. Maintain eye contact when answering questions - Depending on what culture you come from this might be difficult to do, as in some cultures maintaining eye contact with an authority figure is seen as being disrespectful. This is not the case with Americans though. Poor eye contact, especially when done in a formal setting is seen as being dishonest. In other words, your words need to match your body language. What you say is just as important as what your body is communicating. Best of Luck!
