All in Czech (Czech Republic Schengen Visa experience)

Target Country: Czech Republic (Schengen Zone)
Passport: Indian Passport
Visa Type: Tourist Schengen Visa
Processing Consulate/Embassy: Czech Embassy, London, UK
Documents submitted:

Tickets to and from Schengen Zone (electronic itinerary was acceptable).
Hotel bookings for every night spent in Schengen Zone.
As I applied for a multiple entry visa, I submitted supporting documents for 3 trips.

GBP £54 (approx) fee in CASH.
Filled application form
Valid passport
Letter from my School saying that I’m a student
Bank statements for the last 6 months (online printout acceptable).
1 Photo
Proof of Travel Insurance (Certificate stating my name and details of policy).
(Travel insurance should be valid for multiple entries for 6 months).

Experience:
Quite smooth. I needed an appointment. Cost me £10 in phone costs to make the appointment. There is a waiting time of about 10 days in getting an appointment.

Took me 10 mins to submit the application. The visa was processed in 10 days and it was easy enough to pick my passport up. Note: there were special times for submitting and picking up passports. I could only pick it up between 1.15pm and 3pm on weekdays. This was an inconvenience.

They gave me a 6 month multiple entry Schengen visa.
The staff were very nice and were responsive via email.
