You bring in all of your things and are completely prepared for anything that they throw at you. The position is a 4th Grade teaching position and you feel that grade is best suited. When you arrive you see that the principal has brought a 4th Grade teacher from the school and was very surprised. The principal did not tell you that there would be anyone joining you and you become nervous. What do you do? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) They expect you to be nervous! They are gauging how you handle yourself under pressure. I feel this is just as important as the answers you give. I have sat on interview teams many times, and confidence is definitely one of the attributes that was important to me.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) No The suggested solution is relevant to the case No The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement No The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue No The suggested solution is original No Comments: This might be true, but given the context can't be assumed; also does not give a clear solution, rather is an explanation.

I would look at it positively. Maybe making the applicant nervous was not their intentions...
