MNotes: I didn't count on asking some of the questions that I did, especially about College Night. I also found myself talking a lot more about how they were accepted in high school and how that has transition into college. I want to ask more questions about personality and I think I need to spice up my interview schedule
TNotes: I wish I would of ask a lot more about their personality, especially because it was a really interesting person. We had a of back and forth about the subject but I forgot to ask any questions about it. I also wished a touched a little bit more on school and that part of the life of being at Montevallo.
PNotes: My butt was hurting a little from the position that I was in. That definitely distracted me a little from the conversation. I was a little hungry because I and a very early lunch and that distracted from my interview. Knowing the interview and him being in our class made the interview a lot more comfortable.
SNotes: The interview started off with me asking him about his high school days. We discussed how he was homeschool and that he wished he was in public school. We also discussed how UAB was originally his top choice but decided to go to Montevallo after his best friend decided to go here. Then we talked about Montevallo, and how the first day of classes for him were completely awful, but eased into it as time went by. We concluded with how Montevallo has impacted him positively and negatively in his life, and how he's decided to no longer be a freshman.
