What impressed you positively?

wingate takes great pride in the way that they have designed their pharmacy program. graduates from wingate have a lot of pharmacy experience and hours of clinical rotations under their belt. this program prepares their students for the real world, not just academics. they also have a new pharmacy building being built that will open in 2011.

What impressed you negatively?

the location of the school, they could have moved it closer to the charlotte area in my own opinion.

What are your general comments?

got to the interview, dean supernaw addressed us for an hour talking about how he pioneered the program and what wingate was all about, we had to tell him our name, where we were from, where we went to school and something interesting about ourselves. everyone is split into five groups and each group has their own schedule. i had a 30 minute break, then they took me upstairs and i interviewed with two faculty members for 30 mins. afterwards they took my group and another group (about 10 people) and put us in the conference room where we had to come up with a solution to a problem concerning illegally downloading music. we discussed it for 30 mins then dr ford came in and each person had to contribute to the groups solution. after that we went on a tour of the building then came back and had a 30 min question and answer session. the whole process lasted 4 hours! also, they have a system where they rank your gpa, pcat scores, interview scores, group discussion scores then they pick the magic number and if your rank is above that number you get accepted, if not you get waitlisted!
