W: Good morning. Have a seat.
M: Good morning. Thank you.
W: I have your application here somewhere. Yes, here it is. Your name is Jim Martin, right?
M: That’s right, madam.
W: And you hope to enter our university next fall?
M: Yes, if I can make it.
W: Fine, Jim. I notice that you finished high school a year ago. Why didn’t you enter college that year?
M: Well, I have a sister in college now. And there is another one who’ll be going next year. So I had to earn a little money to help pay my way.
W: Good. It sounds as if you’re a pretty responsible fellow. I see that you attended two grade schools.
M: Yes. My first six years I went to a public school in my hometown. Then I went to a military school for two years.
W: And came back to your hometown for high school.
M: That’s right.
W: I see. I don’t find a transcript among your papers. Do you have one?
M: I’m not sure what that is.
W: Oh, that’s a list of your grades.
M: Oh, yes. That’s in the mail now.
W: All right. How were your grades?
M: Well. Pretty good, until my second year in high school. Then I guess I got a little interested in sports. But I know I’ll work hard in college.
W: What do you want to major in?
M: Biology. That was my best subject in high school.
W: That sounds fine. Have you discussed this with your teachers and your parents?
M: Oh, sure. My science teacher thinks that’s just what I ought to go into. And my parents say I should make my own decision.
W: Fine. I’ll hold your application until we get the transcript. When we’ve seen it we’ll let you know. Probably in about two weeks.
M: Thank you very much.
W: By the way, what did your guidance counselor tell you?
M: He told me I had a real knack for scientific things. I know I do, too. I’ve been fascinated with science since I was a child.
W: An interest of that kind really signifies something. Well, good luck.
M: Thank you, madam. Good-bye.
