How did you prepare for the interview?

I looked at every page of interview feedback on SDN and came up with answers to all the questions. I was asked all the ethical questions that have shown up in other peoples interviews. I think the best thing is to pick a side and then support it as best you can.

What impressed you positively?

How friendly the students in the hospitality room were. Even when my interview was running behind they were super nice to me, and made me feel better and less stressed overall.

What impressed you negatively?

That my interview ran late. I was scheduled at 1130 and didn't interview until 12

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

What are your general comments?

I really enjoyed my interview process. The students and faculty were really nice and friendly. They give the tour and treat you as if you have already been accepted, which makes you feel really good. They also stress that the faculty is really nice and that there are so many different ways to get help if you need it. Also, they really made me feel like once you get in there is no competition, unlike prepharm.
