💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
What careers have you considered other than pharmacy, and how did those choices lead to you choosing pharmacy as a profession?
What was the most interesting question?
What is the best thing you cook, and how did you learn to make it? (Essay question)
How did you prepare for the interview?
Reviewed faculty information; reviewed list of possible topics on school's website.
What was the most difficult question?
Imagine there is an extremely good class coming in, with academic scores higher than or around yours. Seventy-nine out of eighty have been selected for your class. You and five other people are given the opportunity for a second interview. Why would you make a better candidate than the other five?
What impressed you positively?
The interview is two people, where one knows your grades etc and the other knows nothing about you. My one interviewer, who must have looked at my marks and didn't want me to try to use them as a talking point, told me that he was supposed to have looked at data but he chose not to and would leave it to the admissions committee. It didn't hit me until I was told "no, there's no way he can breach protocol like that!" later on, I actually thought that my entire interview was closed-file. Dr. Higa is very tricky!
What impressed you negatively?
I wish that we were given an opportunity to meet more of the faculty, asides from the two interviewers.
