I'll be applying for graduate school tomorrow, and I'm of course worried because I've never had to do an interview like this before. I believe it will be a group interview which to me is even worse. But, I know there's also alot of knowledge here.

Can anybody give me tips on this sort of thing I mean I know to shake peoples hands when I meet them...and I think knock before entering. But, other than that I'm really scared lol

Thanks

Skip the handshake, and go straight for the kick in the ass. They will be pleased.

Show boobs if you have them.

If not, you better be charming as hell.

Whatever you do, do not show up with your nuts hanging out of your zipper.

First of all school is for wussies and women, but if you have to do it then I suggest a new cologne scent like Pina Colada. Then when you meet them remember to tell them how lucky they are to have you there in the first place because your wasting your time there when you could be drinking with cheap hookers at the bar. If there is a woman in the interview room and she looks at you then she probably wants your body so make her an offer. Listen to Carl and you will go places

I did that once but I was at the strip club and I spent a few nights in the slammer but it was worth it to rub them on that dancer

Exactly my point. Don't be too nervous. Don't stress. Just relax. Be yourself. Don't fidget a lot. Make yourself seem as comfortable as possible with them, even if you aren't the least bit comfortable. If there is a sense of comfort between you and the interviewer, it will help greatly.

I like to talk in front of groups with a glass of scotch in one hand and a microphone in the other ala Dean Martin. Even if there's only 5 people in the room I still think the microphone is a nice touch. :tu
