Answer:

Despite his nerves, he was ready for his first interview; he had thought through each potential question.

Explanation:

<u>It is best to put a semicolon before the part “he had thought through each potential question”. </u><u>This part can stand as a separate sentence, which is why it is correct to put semicolons here</u>, and not after “Despite his nerves” like in example B. This part is dependent on the rest of the sentence.

<u>The reason why it can also be put after the semicolon is the fact it adds the information to what has been said before</u>. <em>Because </em>Sameer thought through the questions, he is feeling ready. This is why example A is not correct – it includes the word <u>although</u>, which would mean that he was ready <em>despite </em>doing something and not <em>because </em>of it.

Example C is not correct because it provides no connection between the first and second parts of the sentence.
