💬 Interview Questions ▼
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
The most commonly asked interview questions at medical schools include scenarios about resolving conflicts, handling mistakes, describing ethical dilemmas, explaining career choices in pharmacy, and discussing experiences in group work or leadership roles. Some respondents mentioned being asked specific questions related to essays, ethical scenarios, learning styles, career aspirations, and their reasons for choosing the University of Minnesota, which suggests the interviews may have been in an MMI format with potential nondisclosure agreements.
Give an example of a situation where you had a conflict and what did you do to diffuse it?
What was one situation in which you made a mistake and what did you do? What was one occasion in which you have encountered moral or ethical value problems and what did you do?
Why Minnesota? The professor actually went so far as to ask why I would want to go to Minnesota over the good pharmacy school in my own state. Be prepared with multiple reasons because they may push back on this question (I gave him one reason and he sat there and asked "uh huh, what else?")
If one of your classmates was giving other students an update of a fellow student that was in the hospital by sharing details of his condition, would that be okay?
A classmate of yours is in the hospital. A fellow classmate, who works at the same hospital, checks out their chart and informs the rest of your class how they are doing. How would you respond to this?
Please explain a group experience you have had in which one of the members was not being cooperative/not doing their fair share of work. What did you do to resolve the issue?
How would you deal with a situation in which you feel you aren't learning what needs to be learned from a professor...it was something along those lines at least.
What did you expect from/that would happen at the interview today? My answer was on the line of....I've done a lot of research on the U of MN, and I feel that I expected exactly what has happened thus far.... (better put, though!)
Where do you see yourself 10 years from now?
What distinguishes me from others?
What kind of research I've done and what type of research U of M has to offer me?
Biggest strength and weakness? I said I am a procrastinator and disorganized...and my interviewer lectured me about how hard it will be and I won't be able to survive with that.
Essay : Mrs X is an insulin patient, her insulin price suddenly skyrocketed. If she takes lower dose, the treatment will take twice longer. But she barely makes end's meet, let alone afford the insulin price. Describe what problems exist? What would yo suggest her to do?
Students said the most interesting question asked at University of Minnesota College of Pharmacy discussed a wide range of topics, including opinions on pharmacist prescribing, handling ethical dilemmas, personal values, and future trends in pharmacy. The interviews may have included an MMI format, with questions on communication skills, decision-making in challenging situations, and ethical scenarios, possibly under a nondisclosure agreement.
He asked me about my volunteer experience. Although the interview was closed file the professor did have access to my supplemental application answers. Possibly he had the PharmCAS essay in front of him too but I'm not sure since he didn't ask me about it.
If you have a family member who is still conscious and able to make decisions, but is elderly: Some members of the family want to put him/her in hospice and others want to pull out all the stops with medical care to extend life. What do you think of this and what would be your specific role in the situation.
A classmate of yours is in the hospital. A fellow classmate, who works at the same hospital, checks out their chart and informs the rest of your class how they are doing. How would you respond to this?
I told her I became interested in pharmacy in high school and she asked me personal questions about what I was like (basically to see how well-rounded I was) when I made that decision, such as other activities, and why I didn't pursue other areas of interest.
There were a lot of situational questions. One that stands out was something like this: you just took a test. A group of students that also took the test are talking about the questions that were on it. Another student you know will be taking the same test is standing there listening to the discussion. What would you do about this?
None - the only questions asked were "what did you expect from the interview" and "do you have any questions for me about the program?"
Students said the most difficult question asked at University of Minnesota College of Pharmacy discussed various scenarios requiring them to describe conflict resolution, leadership, initiating change, and ethical decision-making. Additionally, the interview may have been in an MMI format, as respondents mentioned questions related to family guidance, terminally ill patients, and ethical dilemmas, indicating a focus on situational judgment.
Give an example of a situation where you had a conflict and what did you do to diffuse it? (it threw me off, we were having a very open one-to-one that I lost myself in the response....I got it done though).
Suppose one of your family members is terminally ill and the rest of your family is looking to you (a pharmacist) for guidance. The rest of the family is pushing for a lengthy treatment to try and cure the ill family member. What do you do?
A patient is on life support and the physician tells the family members the patient still has a chance, but the family still want to take him off of life support. What would you tell this family as a pharmacist?
What other professions did you consider when you were looking at Pharmacy? This was hard because it's getting at your motivation for Pharmacy, and I just answered the question literally... oops! Sometimes you have to learn how to read into the questions!
(I see you have experience) Is there a pharmacist you work with that you consider a mentor? What quality do they have that makes you admire them and how would you reflect that in your future practice?
You just took a test and a group of students that also took the test are talking about the questions that were on it. Another student who will be taking the same test is standing there listening to the discussion. What would you do?
Probably the one I just mentioned. Just be honest with the interviewer...they will read through bs answers. Another difficult question was the classic opener "Tell me about yourself". I should have rehearsed this one more because I kind of skipped around. Be prepared for it...it's simple but can get you into trouble.
None - it was mostly conversation just getting to know me. We connected, as we have so much in common and very similar passions in pharmacy and outside of pharmacy. It was the best interview I have had for any job, professional school, etc, etc, etc!!
"'Do you have any other questions or things that you want to share"-after we had already been exchanging questions back and forth for 20 minutes.
Sheraton Duluth- nice but pretty expensive. They were nice enough to let me extend my stay another night at the same discounted rate of $100 per night. Also free shuttle to/from airport and university although you do need cash to tip the drivers.

How did you prepare for the interview?
Many applicants prepared for their interviews by reviewing questions on platforms like Student Doctor Network (SDN), practicing answers out loud, and researching the school's website. They also engaged in mock interviews, read about current pharmacy topics, and compared their motivations to their application materials to ensure alignment.
Review questions, talk in mirror, write down my motivations for pharmacy and compare it to what I said in my personal statement, and review schools website. Applied to various jobs so I could stress test myself for behavioral questions.
The admissions office recommends that you buy an interview prep lesson for a "nominal fee." The lesson is on UM's blackboard site and is only $20. I wasn't going to buy it initially but in the end I did even though I'd already been to a couple of interviews. The lesson is pretty basic but does give you even more concepts/questions to practice with and helps soothe nerves.
Really learned about the program from the website. Why would you apply to programs that don't interest you? Interview feedback also helped. Tried to stay up to date with some health related news too.
School website, but mostly I relied on my own knowledge of my work experience and my long academic history. I went in telling myself, "You already know the answers to the questions."
I prepared by re-reading my personal statement and supplemental essays, reading up on current pharmacy topics, looking at practice interview questions I found on the web, and doing several mock interviews through Career Services.
Reviewed applications (for all schools) and read this site for lots of potential questions. Also looked up a few faculty sites to see hot topics/areas of research.
I reviewed my application; read about the U of M College of Pharmacy on their website; read feedback on this website; and practiced answering questions I thought that they might ask. I also read about current topics in pharmacy.
I prepared for the interview by reading all information provided on the school's website, reading interview postings on SDN and by preparing answers to the questions that other applicants were asked
Read about current topics, asked pharmacists questions, re-read my PharmCAS application and supplemental. Re-read the information I had from Preview Day.
read Interview Feedback on SDN (extremely helpful), school's webstie, health news from u.s. news ... All the questions that I was asked were on SDN interview feedback...
Reading SDN interview feedback, reading over my essays on my supplemental application, reading issues currently in pharmacy, talking to RPH I work with regarding their view of the U of M and Pharmacy.
Mock interview, student doctor network, researched the schools webpage, researched different settings in which a pharmacist may work, researched current medicare policies.
I prepared for the interview by researching the school, it's curriculum and it's stragetic plan. I also made a list of interview questions posted on this website and methodically wrote out answers in order to focus my thoughts and ideas.
I prepared for the interview by looking at the questions on this site, and then writing out answers on paper. Obviously you can't look at your answers in the interview, but it helped me have an idea about what I would say in the actual situation. I also explored the school's website.
Reviewing standard interview books, which offer examples of generic interview questions, which were used during the interview (tell me about yourself, etc.)
I did a lot of research. I try to be very prepared for interviews like this. I checked out a few books on interviews at the library and went over possible questions in my head before I got there
Applicants were overwhelmingly impressed by the friendly and welcoming atmosphere of the faculty, staff, and students at the University of Minnesota College of Pharmacy. They appreciated the laid-back and conversational interview process, the emphasis on pharmaceutical care in the curriculum, the interdisciplinary opportunities available, and the personal touch in interactions, making them feel valued and supported throughout their visit.
1 program on 2 campuses that interact together; yet the campus locations have very different communities that they impact. Great opportunities for students to learn from either one.
Cohesiveness of students, and overall team mentality between all students, professors, and administration. They are interested in the advancement and efficacy of the pharmacy field, not just running a pharmacy school.
The interview was one of the most relaxing interview I have had. The interviewer was really nice and open to all kinds of questions. The student were very friendly and they gave a tour on the school.
My interviewer did an amazing job making me feel relaxed and comfortable. She definitely made it more like a conversation. I came out of my interviewing feeling really good. The entire faculty were really nice, including the current students. When everything was all over, I got lost trying to find the area that I got dropped of at and I ended up running into one of the student tour guides. He recognized me and when I told him I was lost, he took the time to take me to where I wanted to be :)
The College of Pharmacy is located right with other health profession fields. UMN stresses healthcare teams, so the fact that the dental, medical, and nursing schools are right there is really cool
The interview was very laid back. I spent almost an hour with a faculty member who wasn't a pharmacist and he made sure we spent time getting to know each other before he started formally asking me questions. I felt very comfortable and relaxed the entire time.
Many of the students there were clearly big fans of their school and had turned down offers from other schools in order to attend UM. They also mentioned that it is a top three school... a lot.
The various options upon graduating from this University. You can go into any field you want to as they are pretty much all represented here. The cutting edge technology and research occurring here is amazing.
The friendliness of the staff and the fact that they are incredibly open, honest and forthcoming about the university. You're given every bit of information you may need to make a decision. I was treated like a person, not just another applicant or number. Beautiful area, nice facilities (in comparison to what I've had in undergrad so far). Students really look happy.
I was very impressed by how personal the day was. I felt like a person. I felt like, not only did they want to get to know me, but like they wanted me to get to know them (the college as a whole). Everyone was very welcoming and friendly. The pharmacy students we met were excited and so willing to answer any questions we had. It was a GREAT day with very little stress! They try to make it as painless as possible.
Very casual atmosphere for being one of the best pharmacy schools. Also, even though it's in a very cold state, there are usually tunnels which allow you to walk to different parts of the campus so you don't have to go outside.
Interview was really laid back. It just seemed like my interviewer wanted to know me as a person, not as an applicant. He showed me his evaluation form and told me that I was going to be scored on 6 "dimensions," and then we just talked for 45 minutes.
The Dean's welcome address and why we should choose Minnesota over other colleges. I also like that pharmaceutical care is a large part of the curriculum.
The staff and students were all very upbeat and proud of their school, this college has great facilities. Dean made it a point that they know they are competing for the best students and "sold" what the program has to offer to incoming students.
Everything. Mostly how inspiring my interviewer was and how highly they thought of me and my very unique qualifications - Interior Design major, 31 yrs old, study abroad, communication abilities.
As the pioneer of pharmaceutical care, the school offers outstanding opportunities to work with remarkable pharmacists at the top of their game. My interviewer kept the process rather conversational, and she effectively answered all my questions. I walked away feeling as if this was a world-class institution with outstanding faculty.
I really enjoyed the tour. Not only did I get to see what the school looks like, but I also had plenty of opportunities to ask current students questions about the school.
The process was very well organized. They gave us information packets to take home which was great. I was a little uncertain if the school would be a good fit for me but talking w/my interviewer convinced me.
Very nice faculty, student body. Great facilities, great possibilities for different learning experiences. Interview was very comfortable, not nearly as stressful as I thought it would be.
very organized interviewing process. the interprofessional connections. the school is located at the heart of the medical hospital center. in demand of pharmacists.
VERY laid back guy and he really seemed to think I was very qualified for this position. He looked through my file and told me that there was no way I wasn't going to get into pharmacy school. He stopped the interview right there and we just casually chatted and he tried to sell me the program.
They didn't make me feel intimidated, they were professional, friendly, and helpful. The Dean was also speaking, and she seemed to promote the school (try to sell the school to us, not make us feel like we are begging to get in there). Oh..and they provided us with a list of all faculty with their research interest!--> Hint: find out to make a conversation/ questions to your interviewer. They also allowed us to make changes to campus preference, in which I decided to change mine to TC only.
campus is really nice, everything connects by tunnels so u dont have to go outsite in bitter cold...faculty very very nice..same with interviewer...really nice doctor
Applicants were primarily disappointed by the lack of information or exposure to their preferred campus, feeling disconnected from the Twin Cities campus while interviewing in Duluth. They also expressed concerns about the unimpressive facilities, lack of diversity in student panels, disorganized schedules, and the extreme weather conditions, particularly in Duluth. Suggestions for improvement included clearer campus comparisons, better campus tours, enhanced facility quality, increased panel diversity, and more structured schedules.
The choice of choosing between the two campuses. Food provided wasn't labeled (type of meat, etc.)
Some whole days on the Duluth campus are spent in the same room. It would be nice if the ITV classes didn't have mandatory attendance, as they are recorded and available online all semester long.
One of the student tour guides ran into a friend while in the middle of the tour and she completely ignored us after that. We ended up leaving her behind because she was too busy talking to her friend. I thought that was really rude because she was suppose to be there to give us a tour! Also, I was the only out of state student interviewing that day and the entire student panel was either from Minnesota or Wisconsin. I was at the Duluth campus but I really wanted to go to the Twin Cities campus. It was really hard to get a sense of what the Twin Cities campus was like.
Mostly after my interview and campus tour I was just exhausted. I already had jet lag and the stress leading up to the interview was tiring. The experience itself wasn't negative, just felt long due to me being exhausted.
The interviewer was a faculty researcher who did not have much contact with the Pharm.D. students other than to guide them through the Pharm.D. thesis so he could not tell me much about the school and program. The facilities were also not incredibly impressive, but they will suffice :)
Nothing on interview day itself; however, it would have been nice to try show the facilities on the alternative campus (especially for those not interviewing on their selected campus).
The tour was rushed and fairly worthless. I think the guide worked in admissions but she could have been a student. Either way she was terrible and I felt like the tour was about as worthless as it could have been.
The students currently enrolled in the PharmD program weren't required to adhere to a dress code. My interviewer was unable to answer several of the questions I posed during the interview; however, he did provide the contact information of another professor who would be able to address the questions.
Not much. The admissions staff did try to stress the connectedness of the Twin Cities and Duluth campus while the student panel essentially said the students of the two campuses feel separate.
There wasn't much mention about the other campus so I didn't know much about the other campus. Also, 2/3 of the teacher's lectures are on the main campus and satelite over to the other campus.
The schedule was a little unorganized (although this could have been due to the U of M server going down). I finished my interview and had to wait 45 minutes to start my writing exercise.
I wasn't as impressed with the labs as I had hoped to be. Compared with other top 5 schools, the lab seemed to be somewhat make-shift. Unfortunately, I was not impressed with the student panel. The majority of the students were younger and more interested in talking about how much fun they have rather than what they thought of the program. I would have appreciated hearing more from older students who might have offered a different perspective on managing life and adult obligations as a pharmacy student. I was also disappointed in the lack of diversity of the panel. Every student but one was from Minnesota, and all went to small Minnesota state schools. Most of the students listening to the panel discussion were from out of state, and I would have found their comments most unhelpful. That said, I left the panel feeling that as a student you would be able to create your own niche and define your education at the U of M in whatever manner you choose.
I'm not so sure I'm convinced that the cctv lectures are all that great . . . sounds like a cheap way to share a lecture between the twin cities and duluth campus.
There was no time scheduled in between for breaks, to going to the bathroom. The student panel was not diverse (life expirence wise) I began to wonder about the diversity at the school. Facilities not very impressive at all.
It is weird how they try hard to sell the school to everybody there, but they're only letting about half of the people in... My interviewer made commments like I was a shoo-in, but I have yet to find out.
Applicants commonly wished they had known to apply early to top 15 schools and about residency requirements for in-state tuition. Suggestions included researching interviewers, learning more about the curriculum, being prepared for lengthy interview days, and familiarizing themselves with campus size and faculty research.
I wish I had known that Minnesota does not allow you to gain residency unless you live there for a year without attending school of any kind. I find this a bit unhelpful especially for older applicants who would necessarily move their entire households to Minnesota in order to attend the SOP. Every single other applicant in my interviewing group was very young and planned to go home for summer breaks.
That my interview would be more like a conversation about everything in my life rather than specific questions about pharmacy or why I want to be there.
I said the interview was closed file, but they do know something about you from the information on your supplemental application. Some interviewers choose to look at that, while others wait until the interview actually takes place.
They gave an optional main campus tour (not the pharmacy school) which I took and it was first. It put me at ease by letting me get to know a few other applicants before the interview.
The interview day was very long and lasted from 12:00 to 4:00 pm and there was no snack given or drinks given to us. They also had 2 essay questions: 1. Do you think that patients should have to sign consent forms understanding the risk before they get to pick up their medications. 2. Describe a time where you've demonstrate the most creativity.
I guess everything depends on who interviews you. My professor was extremely casual, so it was all about content and not at all about presentation. He didn't even introduce himself. Be ready to talk about yourself and show excitement about the profession and the school. They want to know that you want to go there, and my interviewer wanted to learn about me with very little effort on his part.
I thought I might have time to consider which campus I would choose by myself, but my interviewer had to know what I would choose before I left the interview itself.
Applicants generally found the interview experience at the University of Minnesota College of Pharmacy to be relaxed and conversational, with interviewers focusing on getting to know the applicants. They appreciated the welcoming atmosphere, support from staff and students, and the opportunity to showcase their personalities. Some advice included being prepared for the interview, asking questions, and staying relaxed throughout the process.
Overall, be yourself, the interview is for the faculty to know you better or disprove any red-flags in your application. That being said, you have to still prepare because some professors may be sorting through applications for grants and research so they might go through the standard questions.....or they may just not be that talkative in a conversation at all. So basically talking about yourself is easy....don't worry. But knowing how to effectively answer the behavioral questions is the hard and should be practiced.
I was really happy with my experience at U of M. It was my very first interview for one of my top choices so I was initially extremely nervous. The school did an amazing job relaxing me and by the time I went into my interview, I was totally calm and relaxed.
The interview was pretty relaxed. The interviewer did not have access to grades or scores, but he had everything else. He did mange to worm my GPA out of me. He said that he usually makes a point of reading all of the essays and telling people where they went wrong because he used to be on the adcom (but he said mine looked good). The interview was very conversational with the interviewer doing a fair amount of talking - they do this on purpose. He also made funny comments, like "I have to ask you on of those psychological questions now."
If you have gone to a Preview Day, the rest of the activities after the interview will be pretty familiar.
Be prepared for inclement weather in either Duluth or Minneapolis. My airline called to tell me my flight was canceled while I was still interviewing. I ended up having to stay an extra night even though Duluth really didn't get any snow. Minneapolis did, however, and pretty much every flight to/from Duluth comes from or routes out of Minneapolis.
I really enjoyed this school's process. They were all very welcoming and extremely nice. It is true that the U of M links both campuses through ITV, but they have good technology so it is a positive. They also said that these classes are recorded and are available for download through itunes.
Overall, this is my top choice school. Initially it wasn't but after seeing how much the students love their program and all of the organizations and community involvement students are a part of, I know it is the school I most want to attend.
The interview day moved the U of M easily to the top of my applied schools.
Also, the interviews have access to pretty much everything from your application except for your grades and PCAT scores. This is, according to them, to prevent a premature evaluation of the student prior to the interview.
Although the interview is open file they are not allowed to see your grades or PCAT score.
The interview was extremely laid back, my interviewer made a great attempt to make it feel like a conversation.
You can sense the commitment the UMN College of Pharmacy has to maintaining its role as one of the top PharmD Programs in the nation. UMN should be among the top choices on almost anyone's list.
Interview may feel stressful initially especially if it is your first interview. Just take advantage of all the resources you have.
Reach early enough to talk to other interviewees.
Its a great day and I really enjoyed the process. You have ample opportunity to ask anyone possible questions and everyone is really honest and forthcoming with answers. No one tries to sugarcoat anything.
I like the school, and hope I am accepted. The interviews are not really open-file because interviewers have most of your information, but they do not know your grades or PCAT scores, and they have not seen your letters of recommendation.
This was my first interview and it was great! People are the friendliest here (compared to my other schools) and are really willing to help. Walk around the campus/city if you have time!
It was real chill and casual, more conversational than interview like. The interviewer was looking for my undergrad school and apartment on google earth
It was a very positive experience. I was VERY nervous because this was my first choice school, it's VERY competitive, and I was pleasantly surprised by what the Duluth campus offers. It was much more personal (one-on-one interview and only 16 interviewees) and welcoming than I had expected from the 4th ranked college of pharmacy in the nation. They actually made me feel like they wanted ME there!
My interviewer and I had a lot in common. The interview was very conversational in nature and was not stressful. Overall, it was a positive experience.
The interviewer was very patient and laidback (t-shirts and jeans, with a big mouth billy bass on the wall behind him) but still conducted the interview in a professional manner. The actual "questions" portion took up maybe the first half of the interview. The latter half was spent discussing the research he's involved in, his personal impression of the school and its students, and other little things.
Overall, my advice to others is don't stress over it. You think too much and you might start stuttering or speaking too fast. It was a relaxing and conversational interview.
The interview was scheduled to go 40 minutes but my interviewer was very interested in me and by the time I was done asking questions the interview went just over an hour! I hope this is good news. Don't hold back any questions, even if you are trying to uncover anything that might be negative about the school. It shows you really care about where you are applying and that you aren't just trying to get accepted anywhere (even if you really are!:)
Great overall expereince, was a little worried about the hour long one-on-one interview but quickly got over that, I got accepted into the class of 2011 Duluth campus.
It turned me from being neutral to really liking the school. I had planned on not liking it so now I'm questioning what to do with my decision if I am accepted
Optional broad campus tour at 11-12
Opening comments, address from dean 12-1
Interview 1-2
Pharmacy school tour 2-3
Student Panel 3-4 (the order of the interview, tour, panel is random and different for different applicants)
The whole atmosphere was pretty friendly and the interview was conversational but professional and my interviewer seemed to want to get down to business and cover his questions for me.
I was positively impressed with the whole interview process. The staff makes sure that they get to know you and also that you get to know the school. They give you a tour and even let you sit for 30 minutes in one of the classes... Very well organized interview and very relaxed... I was stressing out about the interview, but my interviewer was very laid back, and we had very conversational interview. So don't worry that much about interview, just be yourself.
Overall, the experience was very positive. The student panel did a very good job answering a wide variety of questions. The interviewer was very friendly which made for a relitivley low stress interview.
I had an outstanding interview experience thanks to the organization of the process. The adminstrative staff were a delight to work with, and I felt as if they were genuinely interested in each and every prospective student who was present.
After checking in, there is a welcome by a staff member. Then most of the group goes for interviews, while some go for the writing exercise or tour. Interviewer was totally nice, it felt like I was talking with a family friend. After interview there was a 30 minute writing exercise in the comp. lab followed by a tour and student panel. About 3 hours long
My interview was very laid back. He didn't even really have many specific questions for me. It was more like a conversation in which he'd occasionally ask me to be more specific if I was talking about something he was interested in. Some people I talked to said their interviews were a lot more formal, and some even said that every question that was on this site was asked of them. So I would prepare by going over all the questions from other ppl's previous interviews at this school.
Checked in, followed by a short introduction by the Dean of the school. Interview followed, then a writing exercise and a tour of the school. Wrapped up with a student panel discussion.
It was a fun experience. When we first get to the interview, they had separate folders with Univ. of MN markings and a name tag printed out for us. We sit through the introduction from the dean, do writing exercise or interview depending on your schedule, and then go on a tour with the students. We had current students from MN talk about their experience and school life.
The interview started in the morning with a welcome coffee and juice. Then we were gathered in a small auditorium to listen for the Dean's welcome, etc. The group was split into two: writing excercise and tour. But the interviews all started at 11 am. Everyone was assigned a different interviewer.
What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
Applicants generally provided positive feedback on the admissions office's prompt responses and helpfulness, with suggestions for improvements including providing campus pictures in presentations, clearer communication about supplemental applications, offering virtual tours of alternative campus facilities, and providing snacks during the admissions process.
I don't believe I had any issues, overall they replied promptly to all my questions and responded when they said they would.
The submission of the supplemental application can be confusing. I assumed I was set because my payment was processed, but it turned out that I had to re-submit afterwards. A note that we will receive an email upon submission would help.
