I've never auditioned for anything before, but if there is one person who is to shine in an audition, it's you. Like you said, you're Slytherin, you're ambitious, smart, and outgoing. You can make anything happen. So just take a deep breath, and knock those judges out. 

And about the Ivy League, I could go to one if I really wanted, but I don't think that is necessary for the path that I have chosen. You, on the other hand, are a prime student for an Ivy League school. You'll thrive. It would be cool if we actually ended up meeting each other, though! Like I said, you're ambitious. You will go far in life. :D

So, I guess the one thing I can say is good luck. I don't think you need advice, you have all the qualities. You'll thrive in whatever environment or situation you are put in. Regardless, I cannot give advice since I've never done audition.

So, here you are, good luck! You can achieve anything you set your mind to. Again, good luck!

Awesome! I have a violin one today in....

2 Hours.....?!?! Uh, gotta go!

It's REALLY Hard to get into the Ivy League. You need to be smart and a little lucky too, as well as do something unique, like write a book or do something for the community. It's hard, but I bet you can do it! 

Myself, I would like to go to MIT, but that's really hard too. If not MIT, then Berkerly. 

First of all: you play clarinet?!?!? That's so cool! I play clarinet too! #Clarinetistsrule

Second of all: I'm sure you'll do great Mei! I've done a couple clarinet auditions before, and they were really fun. Just remember to breathe and relax before you play; and have fun! Even if you don't get in, you'll still remember that you had fun. You've probably practiced hard; so I'm sure you'll do great Mei. Keep being that amazing ambitious Slytherin you are!

Goood luck, Mei! We're all crossing our fingers for you! I have had a singing audition once and I had extreme stage fright! But all you have to do is just start, whether the start is good or bad, just start and youll be able to finish the audition. This may be bad advice, but that's what I did. Good luck! You're the best, tell us how you went!

Don't panic (catch the reference, anyone?). Think of it as an informal way for the judges to see a bit of your skill and style. Even if it is actually very fancy and important, don't think about that part. That advice usually works for theater auditions. I'm not the best person to ask, though, because everything I've auditioned for has been community theater where I'd have to be given a part even if I flubbed it up enormously.

Oh, oops, you already had your audition. How'd it go?

I'm so happy right now! Not only did I get in, but I got second chair of the second row. You may not think that's a lot, but I'm twelve and was competing against ninth graders. It means so much to me! The audition was amazing, too. I met some awesome people, the building was beautiful, and playing in front of a judge was so fun! 

I also beat my rival, who got the cutoff score. He's really good, so beating him means so much to me . . . He's super talented, and I'm not. I just really wanted to beat him and spent a lot more time on it, which was totally worth it! I'm so excited! 

You can achieve anything if you work hard enough.

Mei ♡ 

Congradulations, Mei! I admire how you devoted yourself to a skill and then excelled at it through hard work.

@Poetic Panda I guess that works too, but I was thinking of the Hitchhiker's Guide To the Galaxy, where the HHGTtG itself has "Don't Panic" written on it in large friendly letters. 

Unsolveablez says amen, his first word. I don't know if anything I said constitutes an "amen," but thanks.
