28. Why dont you do this course here in India?
You should know what difference the course would bring
to you if done from Canada instead of India. If the course
is not available in India, you can tell the Visa Officer
that it is not offered in India. If the same course is
available in India, highlight the differences in the quality
of education and the course structure in India and Canada.
You should convince the Visa Officer that doing this course
from Canada will add value to your profile. Talk about a few
researches being conducted in that field. Technical words
work out when other things don't.
Similar course in India is entirely theoretical. Whereas the
same course in Canada comes along with Internship and a lot
of project work. Internship & projects will give me a lot of
practical knowledge. After completing the course I will not
get only the degree, but also experience in the field. Also,
the research facilities are not that great here in India.

in VLSI design and this course includes various modules
related to that.

You should go through the website and handbook of your
university carefully. Pen down some highlighted features
such as World ranking, the research facility, the faculty
profile, Alumni profile etc. Visa officer wants to know the
reason behind joining the particular University.
E.g. I was keen to study in a university which can give me
quality education so while searching various options I found
that this university has got the best faculty available in
my subject. Even the research facilities are very good.
Moreover it is listed in the top 50 universities of the
world with well known professionals as its Alumni's.
32. Why do you want to study in Canada?

to Canada. As you are applying for student Visa so you
should only talk about that.

the ample research facilities and global exposure available
there. I will be completely equipped in terms of practical
exposure, by being in contact with people from different
nations and working with the best technology.
33. Have you ever been to Canada before?
Though Visa officer has the record of all your visits
to Canada but you have to tell them the truth. If you have
been there then you should remember the date of arrival &
departure.
Yes I have been to Canada once in 2006 on a tourist Visa.
Or
No, I have not been to Canada so far.
If yes then it is advisable to remember the date of last
arrival and departure from Canada.
You don't have to be nervous and answer in a formal
way. This question is basically asked to make you comfortable.
According to me i think you should give valid reason for why you have selected canada only for work & not other country. they might be expecting something logical ans from your side.
Secondly answering all the question is not only important but your attitude, confidence and appearance have equal importance.
