Regardless of what happens, you will have gained some experience to your advantage. So it is cool what happens either way.

I think we all can say we are proud of you and rooting that things go well.

The best of luck then!

As for keeping your cool during the process. It really helps if you have something to hold onto. Practise some mindfulness - how do your feet feel against the floor? Sense the feeling of that pressure on the floor from your feet to your hips and above to your head. How does it feel touching that object you are holding onto? What are the surroundings like about you. Is there anything you can find comfort in.

Answer the questions, provide examples as needed, and try not to ramble. While they will be looking for how quick you think on your feet that is not the deal breaker so take a little time to breathe and gather your wits about you between questions. This will demonstrate some confidence.
Thank You so much. The advice I have gotten here has helped me over the past few days. Although I am still nervous I do feel a bit more confident about the interview. It is approaching and I am not feeling totally sick so that is a really good thing. I will let you all know how it turns out.
