Own it. (Even though is was a BS ticket just because you were not 21) It is what it is.
Saying that you were somewhere else other than a bar will alleviate the fake ID question. Whether you had one or not. ( If you did, do not admit it)
Explain the under age DUI law in GA as a matter of fact, not as an excuse. ex. but I was not over the .08 limit. Own it.
"I made a mistake. It was a gross error in judgement. I learned from and am now grateful for the experience. I changed my behavior and will never repeat it. Thank you for asking."
That sounds like good advice. "I was at a friends house watching the World Series eating pizza and wings...." sounds less threatening than "At the bar".
Remember, interviews are like talking to your wife. You tell your wife everything........ but you don't tell your wife
everything!
