Does
anyone have any recommendation on what pheros to wear for a group college interview? There's going to be like one
or two interviewers and a small group (8-10) interviewees being accessed in a classroom environment.
Previous
threads suggest SOE, but in this situation, I wouldn't want my other competitors to be talking too much, stealing
the spotlight and screwing my chances of admission. Any suggestions?
BTW, I'm 20 (though I probably look like
16-17), 5' 3", small build.

Chikara with a little more
-none maybe (e.g from AE).

I agree with CptKipling. -none
is needed. AE is great for this.

BTW what could happen if you put
just none with a cover scent so that you wouldn't stink.?
In such an interview it is important to be dominant,
or what do you think?
I found out that in such an assessment people who talk alot and keep other guys calm have
better chances.
But in contrast to this, in some sort of interviews it might be totally wrong to be the alpha.

I don't see where being
the alpha, which means being a leader, can ever be wrong in this setting.

An interview full of colonge
.... hmmmmmmm, how does that really sound to you? :blink:
Chikara has an accepting smell, and it's good.
SOE
has an accepting smell, and it's good.
Even with the competition, the interviewer will figure it's you that has
the scent ... IF you're going to be standing/sitting in front of them while getting interviewed. IF YOU KNOW your
stuff, you should be fine ... IF, YA ASKING ME.:run:

Last year I had a couple of
interviews, one success and one failure. I wore my standard half a gel pack of SOE with a dab of NPA... though I
seem to remember replacing the NPA with PI got my better results with some of my professors at unversity so I would
have used that if I had any PI left!
However, these days I think I would wear a tiny ammount of chikara as it
has been pretty good at getting respect from men and friendliness from women so long as I keep the dose very
small!

Usually, in these situations,
you want to be seen as mature, and well composed. PI will work well, but could intimidate other interviewees, or
result in oneupsmanship with another alpha. You definitely want to catch the attention of the interviewers, though.
Personally, I think Chikara is the way to go. Light and friendly, yet capable of garnering attention without being
overbearing, and it smells good. SOE would project friendliness, though not necessarily leadership or respect. And,
I always like to add a little WAGG to whatever. "WHAT A GREAT GUY to have at our school."
Good luck with the
interviews, friend. Be smart and concise with your answers, though not curt. If someone chimes in, allow him to,
give him the floor I guess, and then deliver a retort if necessary, just don't be dismissive. Look interested, and
look smart.

Thanks for the advice. I'll
go with a spray of Chikara to the neck and some SOE swipes to the wrists. Or is there a better way to apply them?
There might be an additional one-on-one interview, which I hope the -none won't be too overwhelming. Is it true
that smaller guys should wear some -none?

I am a smaller guy and I think no. Small person BIG

Just make sure you give plenty of time for your mones to cool down before the interview.

I think the Wagg or Chikara mix
would be good. I'd supplement with APC. But you need to pay attention to your body language and how you express
yourself in the group. You don't want to be the dominant male. You want to be the most enthusiastic, interested
person.
You're there to meet the interviewer, not to muscle the other people aside. If the interview is for a
selection process, asking questions, expressing enthusiasm at the answers you give, being polite and allowing other
people to lamely answer the interviewer questions are good.
Rarely if ever should you be the first person to
speak. Leaders listen. Wannabes thrust themselves into the limelight.
