So, I have an early college program interview at 10:30 this morning, and im starting to get really nervous, the mock interview that took place at my school was surprisingly easy, but I dont know how to prepare for the real one. The lady i did the mock interview was very impressed with my answers and my posture and eye contact and stuff, but in general she just asked me questions about myself and my personality. Im really scared guys. Being in the 8th grade and being a crocheter has been amazing, but if i want to have a future i need to take this opportunity. I mean, getting all four years of high school done in only 2 years AND getting an associates degree + 60 college credits before i even leave middle school seems like a big deal! I need help guys, help with literally anything, clothes, posture, tips and tricks, answers to prepare for, PLEASE HELP 
OMG this sounds awesome!! I know you will rock it! I donât really have much experience with interviews- just warning you. but I do ave experience in theatre and auditions so I kinda get what you re going through. Firstly you have to remember to breathe. You want to walk in the room and not be a crazy nervous wreck. Taleka deep breath and tell yourself its going to be alright. Another tip is to âfake it until you make itâ. Pretend who you are talking to is someone you have met before, so you can talk comfortably to them. I DO NOT mean being too relaxed and talking slang to them , but be confident, and have confidence in each answer you say. Also, tell yoursef that you will do amazing. Youâre gonna go in there and do the best that you can at that very moment, and youâre going to be proud of yourself!!
Also iâm not entirley sure what questions they are going to ask for, but if they ask questions like⌠idk âwhats ur favourite bookâ and your favourite book is like a Dr seuss book, theres no need to pretend your fav book is some sort or advanced philosophy book. (someone I know go asked this question when applying to their dream school and they go in so⌠yeah :))
Good luck!!! Hope I was of decent help lol :D
Take a deep breath. Sounds like you got this.
Thank you so much for the help! I also have a lot of experience in theater stuff so idk why i didnt think of this, but it was really helpful!! Thank you so much!
Thank you for the support, i appreciate it more than you know!
you got this slay queen!!! your gonna ace it! take a deep breath and jus say what you feel
Tysm!!
yassssssssssss
If you have theater experience, as you said upthread you can draw on that to get through the interview process with no problem 
Please let us know how it went
I definitely will! Thank you so much for the tip!
Guys im in the waiting roommmmm⌠
Transferable skills!
Even with crochet, you recognize patterns, it shows patience, seeing things through
As for how far youâve come in education, you are persistent, willing to put in the extra work
There are so many more that can go into either category.
You got this!
Also, random tip I heard once. When they ask âdo you have any questions for us?â Ask them what their favorite part about working there is. It will give you a sense of community, and will bring the emplyment panel a smile
I canât help you idk how much, I havenât experienced this but, YOUâLL DO IT! YOUâLL BE SO GREAT THEYâLL REMEMBER YOU FOR YEARS!! YOU GOT ITâ
Thank you SO much!!
This really helped i cant even believe how much, the lady who interviewed me seemed very surprised id asked that question! Thabk you so very much!
THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH FOR THE HELP AND SUPPORT! The interview was way less scary then i thought and the people were so kind! The lady who interviewed me is actually the english teacher AT the early college program i applied for so we really bonded in the terms of that. You guys were so very helpful and most of these commemts helped me get through it. The interviewer semmed very impressed with me! She said i had very good posture, eye contact, questions, and answers! She said I have a very good chance at getting in and cant wait to have me in the program if the rest of her colleagues decide i am a good fit! I GET MY ACCEPTANCE EMAIL IN APRIL I CANT WAIT! I hope i get into the program im aiming for! Ill be happy if i get in any of the others as well! I just want to thank you guys so much again and if youd like you guys can keep staying active in here and talking about anything! By the time i get my email i will either make a new post or announce the results in this one! Tysm again guys for the love and support even though there arent many of you lol
