二、当时我的interviewer要出去,他说回来给我电话和我定具体时间地点,但是他希望可以先收到我的材料,这样他好有准备。但adcom坚持要定好时间才给他发。我觉得很多事情其实都是可以商量的,就send了一封邮件给她,她就同意了。规矩是死的,人是活的,只要你言之有理,他们也是会通融的。所以,大家遇到一些情况,都可以想办法和adcom沟通,如果实在不行,再走plan B. 以下是我和adcom同的邮件,希望有帮助:
Me: I will schedule an interview with XXX after he's back in town. Please register XXX as my interviewer and send him my materials. Thank you very much!
AdCom: I cannot until it is set up. Please let me know when he schedules. The date, time and his name.
Me: Will keep you posted. However, as XXX will be out of town since tomorrow and conduct the interview soon after he's back, he hopes that he could receive my materials before he leaves so that he could preview them on the way. For the time being, we hope to conduct the interview on 14 Dec 2010 or any other day after 13 Dec of that week. I know the policy is to send out the material after date and time is confirmed, but that would make him lack of enough preview time to be well prepared for the interview, which might affect his judgement and the usefullness of the interview. I would greatly appreciate if you could make an exception this time and send out my materials to him soon. Sorry for any inconvenience that might cause and thank you very much for your
help in advance!
AdCom: Ok I have sent your info. You should be all set .
