How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, reviewed my PharmCAS application

What impressed you positively?

The size of the entire campus. It was really big.

What impressed you negatively?

The building we were in seemed very crowded. The campus also gave me a very conservative feel which really turned me off. The campus and pharmacy school offered little to no diversity which really shocked me because of its vast size.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The pharmacy program is ranked extremely high, I had no idea. Also a lot of the professors were world reknown which impressed me.

What are your general comments?

It was a good experience. The interview was a little more intimidating that most that I've been too because it was one-on-one and open file. They didn't really as questions, it was more ''explain your involvement in...(pick an activity on my file).''

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
