I definitely screwed the pooch early on in that regard... didn't go through mock interviews provided by the school, looked through basic DOs and DON'Ts, but didn't really prepare, didn't practice answers at all. And yeah, you can't fake it, unless I guess the interviewer doesn't give a shit or otherwise sucks at their job.
As much as it sucked to leave an interview feeling like I couldn't have done any worse or at least being unsure of how it went, after lots of experience failing, I'm pretty much a pro.... I've nailed the past few and knew it the second it was over. Great feeling.
Google 'interview situational questions'
Come up with enough situations so you don't repeat yourself, and practice explaining the situations.
Ask questions.
Profit.
