Advice for student interviews?

I am currently applying to magnet high schools in my area. Is there any advice for interviews, or maybe the entire process as a whole? How to answer likely questions, how to be confident/calm, how to have stories that you can use for the interview, etc? Anything will help.

Irelis’s Answer

For interview for your magnet school, they want a student to be prepared and mature enough that takes their education seriously.

So first, they want someone who is dressed appropriately in a school environment and use manners when they are introduced, they will ask question about why you applied to this specific school and what makes this school different from the others, you will answer that question in a way that represents your goals and aspirations of coming to the magnet school, they will ask questions about you and your education/career history.

And lastly if you have any questions for them, you can ask them because they do appreciate your time for being there and they want you to take all the information that they got for you to prepare for the school year.

And if you are nervous for the interview, that is okay, take a deep breath and relax your mind while waiting for the interview, always eat something small like fruit, granola bars or yogurt to keep your stomach full in the meantime, and once you finished the interview, reward yourself a meal afterwards.
