dude it really doesnt matter. Just dont be a dick. Dont talk about doing drugs, or drinking, or anything illegal. They will ask questions, just answer them truthfully

Don't swear. Sit up straight, try to show good posture. Don't use slang, don't use improper grammar. Say 'yes' instead of 'yeah'. Ect....
