How should I prepare for an interview?

Interviews can feel scary, but they're a great opportunity to show not only an interest in your subject, but also curiosity and a willingness to learn! Here are three things you can do to help prepare:1) Read something new about an issue you care about. Looking at a new article or book before your interview can be a great way to test your assumptions and practice thinking critically.2) Chat to friends, teachers and family about your subject. The more used to talking and thinking aloud you are, the better!3) Reflect not only on what you know, but what you don't know. What are the biggest questions you have about your subject? How would this course/ this university help you find answers to some of them?
