Keeping abreast of news and showing an international perspective are the entry interview tips that top students of Hong Kong Science and Technology University (HKSTU) are offering to candidates.

At a meeting last Sunday to introduce the university's Early Admission Program, applicants were also advised to be themselves. "Don't act as if you're No 1," one HKSTU graduate said.

Under the Early Admission Program, students with top grades may apply to enter universities one year sooner than their peers. Interviews are a crucial factor in the success of their applications.
