American Legion Boys State: interview in 2 days. HELP!!

<p>So I got selected as one of the 5 delegates for boys state for my school in CA
The interview is on friday and I'm super nervous.</p>

<p>I've been reading and I found out that basically DON'T SAY ANYTHING ANTI-AMERICAN</p>

<p>What questions should i expect?</p>

<p>How should I answer them?</p>

<p>How should I prepare?</p>

<p>Please please please share you experience (only your interview experience) about what questions you had and what did you say.</p>

<p>thank you thank you</p>

<p>be natural and relaxed. read up on the news, politics, etc. In my state of NC, it was very easy to get in. IDK about CA</p>

<p>I got into Girls state. It was easy to get in and completely uncompetitive, but the questions asked included "what are your state politicians?" "what's the legal voting age?" and "what does the pledge of allegiance mean to you?"</p>

<p>I was selected to be a delegate of the California Golden Boys' State last year. Be ready to answer political questions(1st amendment), patriotic questions (pledge and national anthem), and personal experiences of being involved in your local government. Try focus on community service, athletics, and possible Boys' State alumni or America Legion relatives. It is a great program and I wish you luck with your interview.</p>

<p>thanks guys...but I don't they're selecting me...
They only interviewed me for about 3 or 4 minutes and they didn't even ask me about anything you guys listed</p>

<p>thanks anyways</p>

<p>wear one of those little American flag pins politicians wear on their lapels.</p>

<p>And say "I'm proud to be an American" a lot.</p>

<p>haha im going for it to from california but my interview is next week lol i guess ill study just incase :D</p>

<p>I went to Girl’s State last year.</p>

<p>I didn’t have to do any interviews or anything, but some people did. It’s apparently pretty competitive in my state. Idk.</p>

<p>Anyways, Just make sure to brush up on your local government (city, county, state) and that you say everything American and nothing anti-american. Also don’t say anything Anti-Christian.</p>

<p>Although we did have people who weren’t Christian (jewish girl in my city), it was definitely a major idea of the program.</p>
