Mario: Uh... yes, of course. Here's the application and the photos, I don't know, I think everything's there.

Official: Okay, let's review them. Why are you applying for a visa for this country?

Mario: Well... you know, tourism, vacation, getting away for a bit. I need to rest, do a little sightseeing.

Official: I understand. How long do you plan to stay in the country?

Mario: More or less two weeks... three, I don't know. Whatever I have enough money for.

Official: Your itinerary doesn't go into much detail. Do you have more concrete plans for your time there?

Mario: I mean, yes... but I haven't thought about it that much. I'll decide when I arrive.

Official: I recommend you have a clearer plan. Also, how are you going to finance your stay?

Mario: Oh, don't worry, I have savings. I'm not short of money. And if necessary, I can always ask a friend for a loan.

Official: I remind you that we need clear and precise documentation. Also, how will you be accommodated during your stay?

Mario: I have some friends there. I'm staying with them. I don't know if they can send me an invitation letter, but if they ask me, I'll arrange it.

Official: I understand, but please make sure you complete all the requirements and have the proper documents. This is essential to avoid delays or rejections.

Mario: Oh, well, I'll do what I can, don't worry.

Melisa: Well... honestly, I've always really liked it, like, I don't know, seeing beautiful smiles and all that.

Doctor: Interesting. Dentistry is certainly a career with a strong focus on people's health and well-being. What attracts you most to the profession?

Melisa: Well, what I like most is that, as I told you, there will always be people who need to go to the dentist, I mean, it's never going to end.

Doctor: Dealing with patients is essential, especially with children. But dentistry also requires manual dexterity and a lot of precision. Do you consider yourself skilled in those areas?

Melisa: Ugh, well... let's see, the truth is I've never worked much with precision, but I really like making crafts and small things.

Doctor: Attitude is important, as is technical preparation. Dentistry is a demanding career. Are you willing to commit to rigorous study and long hours of practice?

Melisa: Well, yes, of course, obviously. Although, you know, I don't want it to be all study, study, study... I also want to have some free time, so I don't go crazy. But yes, I can study when necessary.

Doctor: I understand that balance is important, but in this career, sometimes it's necessary to dedicate a lot of time to both theory and practice. Do you have any previous experience in the healthcare field or any activity that has prepared you for this?

Melisa: Well... not exactly, but I've been to the dentist many times, and I've always been interested in the whole process. Also, from time to time, I've helped an aunt of mine who has a clinic, but nothing too serious, just with small things, like organizing materials or seeing patients when there weren't many people. No "real work," so to speak.

Doctor: I'd like you to prepare in a more structured way, but I understand that online resources can be helpful. Finally, why do you think our university is the right option for you?

Melisa: Well, because it's the most well-known and... it sounds good. Plus, it's close to my house, so it would be good for me. I don't have a lot of money to go to more distant places, and I think this is the best option for me.

Doctor: Thank you for your honesty.

I: Perfect! Thank you, Doctor. I hope they accept me, because I really want to study this!
