Me: Explained about my future aspects, alignment of goal and requirement of completing masters for the same. (She did not ask further, idk here whether she gave up or she accepted answer. Till this point I was sure in mind she rejected me. She continued typing for 30 seconds. She did scroll through my entire DS160 for another 30 seconds)
