No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Mock interview, student doctor network

What impressed you positively?

Very structured interview process

What impressed you negatively?

Group interview (group of applicants + 2 current pharmacy students + faculty) was kind of strange, just kind of chipped in whenever so if you waited till the end after everyone else spoke it seemed like it was kind of ''what he said''.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Mapquest didn't really cut it direction wise when I was in Baltimore so I had a terrible time getting out of the city.

What are your general comments?

Wasn't bad. Awkward 1 on 1 interview with a professor, asked really strange questions like what if you don't get in here, did you apply to other schools, weird things I wouldn't normally expect.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

No responses
