What impressed you negatively?

Required laptops, most intense pharmacy cirriculum in the U.S.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How the group dilemma works because this was the main cause of my stress. Interviewees are divided into groups of approximately 6 people. The groups are directed to a room where they are given the opportunity to discuss solutions to a given problem without others observing you. There will be two staff members who observe your presentation. Your presentation should consist of defining the problem and explain possible solutions to the problem. These solutions need to contain ones that you believe are the best and ones that you thought of but would not use. Make sure everyone plays a role in the presentation and knows who says what.

What are your general comments?

Although the day was long, it wasn't as bad as I thought. As the day progressed, my stress level declined and I was able to do well during my interview.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
