Lessons learned

Lessons from the meeting:
1. If the project you had done has a very limited scope, say that up-front. Don't resort to circumlocution and making things up to wrap them in an attractive cover.
2. You can't just say that "I'm interested in an area A", with NO prior work done in that area.
3. Decide what are your research interests. Really. What you have right now is, "I'm interested in X, Y, btw Z, and also W. Oh, and I forgot to mention V.
