Group Interview

I attended a group interview today as part of the application process for the college of education.  I didn't really know what to expect but had to be dressed up all nice for it.  So I purchased some new slacks last night, picked out my shirt and tie and when this morning came I was ready.  Well, I actually gave myself a haircut, showered and then was ready.  I got to go do my second presentation at Cedar High.  It went okay but not as good as the first one.  There were a few students that weren't in the first presentation and that was different. The presentation builds on itself and so I felt like I had to try and summarize the first lesson and try and teach the second.  Oh well.  It is what it is and I think the kids got the point that they need to practice a skill to develop a skill.  Anyway, the group interview.  It went well.  We had to do a survival scenario and basically we got ourselves killed.  Well, maybe not killed but certainly made a bad decision that would have hurt our chances for survival in the long run.  It was an interesting experience.  The good news is that the gal that was in charge of it was very positive about our group and made it sound as if we would all pass without a problem.  That's nice.  I am wrestling with the education outline from yesterday and the thought of 4 more years.  I am thinking about dropping the sped and then focusing on it after I graduate and get a job.  That however could backfire as it is the sped that is the more marketable skill set.  Oh my gosh, it is frustrating and a bit discouraging to look at the amount of time required.  Well, it is what it is.  I have a little time before I would start the sped portion of everything so I don't have to make up my mind today.  I will ponder on the matter a bit and research other sped endorsement opportunities as I try and make a decision on what to do.
