Schengen Visa (Manila)

Hi all! I'm visiting Europe for the first time end of October. I have applied with the French Embassy last week and was given a week to wait for the results. The consul, a french girl, is very nice and she only asked a few questions from me then asked me for my biometrics.

I was advised the result will be on Thursday, in the afternoon.

Has anyone on here applied for a Schengen Visa before? How was it for you?
