Do you know what they ask you? Is it known to be really hard? If you get really nervous maybe practicing talking in front of a mirror may help. and see it's not just a virgo thing haha IP: Logged |

EDITI researched a bit and found out that they do thoroughly check essays for plagiarism. Don't want that to be a problem. IP: Logged |
