If all else fails ... follow my lead (I have same date) ... I will be the one with the paisley colored shirt and size 17 shoes with an air horn. At 8:30am sharp, we will run around in circles and blow the air horn shouting ... "PLEASE APPROVE US!" - in both English and Spanish. We will stop for water breaks every 15 minutes. ;) (*joking*)

Also, make sure to review some of the obvious stuff that you might not have reviewed... like how many times you've gone to visit since you began your relationship (so you're not there counting when you're already nervous and might miscount), how you met (a lot of times couples have different versions of how they started dating) and where and what you do for work. I've seen those are common questions on these reviews. And of course make sure you know the family members' names. You don't want to call a sibling by their common name and then have your fiance say the legal name, for example. I can only assume a difference would raise a red flag.
