Student council interviews?

Question

I'm going to try to be on student council this year. they always ask "what makes you better than everyone else" or something like that. i never know what to say because i don't think i'm better than everyone else. can anyone help me on what to say?

Answer 1

what makes you stand out? well i would be witty and say, "honestly, what doesn't make me stand out?" for a laugh then I would get into serious mode. just say that you're different because you WANT to be there. you WANT to be at an interview where you're nervous as h**l and you feel like your throwing up. and you WANT to be a part of student council because you want to make a difference. that's what makes your unique.
