<li><p>Just be yourself, honestly. Pretend you’re talking to a teacher, parent, friend: it’s really not formal and the interview is there to just kind of show “oh hey, this kid took 2 extra hours out of his/her life for the university, that shows interest.” The only way you can screw it up if you’re quiet and boring, or overly egoistic.</p></li>
