Let me add my two cents About studying japanese this is the things I would have done if I returned back to the March 2019 If you have a small or nonexistant knowledge of Japanese before this program, I would highly suggest starting by learning hiragana and katakana and then Kanji.

Grades are not that important, trust me, I'd know :lol: Would you mind tell me your university average? (here or by pm if you dont want to share it).

Interview went well. They told me they arent allowed to tell me anything but they will send their pick by monday.

It seems companies have deadline by 27th of march to make their decision so I hope it goes well.

Greetings
