Interview Profile
To complete my interview profile, I chose a 40 year old male and compared and contrasted information from my own personal profile.

When I interviewed this male, I asked him if would prefer to study in a library, where there are no back ground noises, or at home where he may hear familiar sounds and possible distractions. He stated that he would...
