Hey guys,

As some of you guys know I am currently in a Residential Treatment facility (RTF). Many of you might know that I have been trying to get into a school for Mostly people with Asperger's syndrome or on the spectrum. I have an interview tomorrow and tuesday. I really want to get into this school I know that I can have a future there. I'm kind of nervous I really want to get in. Any tips for the interview? Its gonna be cool to be near philly tomorrow. Like I said guys wish me luck!

Yeah, good luck!
How many schools that are mostly for AS people do you think there are btw? I had no idea that they existed here in the US, I am intrigued.

Hey good luck for the interview, it sounds really good that you have the opportunity to go to a school with lots of others with Asperger's Just don't get too nervous (do things to distract yourself) and go in calm so you're more relaxed when you get talking.
