LVN Program Interview

[Natasha A., CNA, LVN]

I am currently in the pre vn orientation class and in two weeks will be having an interview with the admission panel. The course chooses its applicants based on pre vn quizzes, self introduction essay and interview. I really want to prepare myself in advance and would like to know how I can excel in the LVN interview. What typical questions do they ask? What is considered an 'ideal' candidate? Besides dressing professionally and making eye contact, how can you show enthusiasm and confidence? I am somewhat a shy person and tend to 'over do it' to hide my fear of standing in front of a crowd. I would appreciate your help. thanks
