For the interview questions, I have heard that they ask questions like:
What clubs/sports are you involved in?
Do you like being a leader or are you a follower?
Do you like the government?What would you do to improve it?
How do you feel about the justice system?
What do you do in your spare time?
You should definitely brush up on current events and know your local leaders, as well as national ones.
As for outfit, definitely be very formal.I have heard that they are very conservative, so maybe a cute business type suit, or blouse and skirt/slacks.You probably should stay away from jeans and t-shirts for this one.
Just be yourself, relax, and try to answer the questions as best as you can.I'm sure you'll do fine!
Just to let you know, I talked to a girl who went to Girls State last year, and she said that the questions they ask each person are never the same.They base the questions off of each girl's nomination packet.So, if you wrote about how you like to be a cheerleader or something like that, they will ask you questions based on that.Also, be confident and comfortable, because that's what they're looking for!
