Comment by Lena M. on February 4, 2013 at 10:10am Hey everyone! I just posted a discussion about some research I'm doing for my Master's thesis. Please help me by filling out the survey! You can look at the post here or just go straight to the survey. The survey is about international exchange experience and shouldn't take more than 10 minutes to complete. I would really appreciate it if you would take it! Thanks!
Comment by Ashish on January 17, 2013 at 3:24am Regarding your second question it depends upon the no. candidates allowed from your country.....
Comment by Ashish on January 17, 2013 at 3:23am What i have seen on the information booklet is the minimum score for the enrollment in CCIP program is 400 and for some it is 500 out of 990 maximum marks in a TOEIC score. They will consider all the applicants who score the minimum marks and finalise the same. I'm not sure but your application matters the most. ?I hope it will helpful
Comment by Mushfik Hasan on January 17, 2013 at 2:26am Do they select candidate based on TOEIC score ???? Or they r taking all the student who r selected in the interview session .???
Comment by Ashish on January 17, 2013 at 12:37am Hello Mushfik,
Well as far as i know there is no benchmark for the tests taken for CCIP application consideration ! For me in INDIA Embassy has taken TOEIC exam and with maximum 990 marks.
Comment by Mushfik Hasan on January 15, 2013 at 12:35pm What is the bench mark of IELTS for this program and what kind of IELTS academic or general training ????
Comment by Ashish on January 14, 2013 at 2:08am Hello Wa'el,

Will my interview took 25-30 minutes, most of the questions are related to my application form and hobbies and relevant information about it. Mainly they were focused on knowing me me and be confident after your interview they must asked you to give TOEIC exam followed by 2nd round of interviews for the application finalization ! I hope it helped !! good day !!!
