What impressed you positively?

The two group interviews were very laid back.

What impressed you negatively?

I wasn't impressed with the fact that the interviews weren't held on campus, but they can't really help that right now. The pharmacy building is too small. We also started the day by introducing ourselves (in front of all the other candidates there). We had to tell where we were from, where we went to school, and they asked us to share where else we had interviewed. I don't know why this was neccessary.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

The day was fairly laid back. The only part I thought was stressful was the one on one interview. The group interiews seemed almost pointless because each person hardly got time to speak. I also didn't know that there would be an intro session for a whole hour before we started interviews. This was conducted by two secretaries from the pharmacy school. The dean never spoke, nor did I see him.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
