the only time to ask questions was after the dean spoke. There was no other time to ask questions, so get them in early....before group interviews and essays

What are your general comments?

the interview was good, try to be original with your responses..I think most people sound stupid and repetitive when they say ''I want to help people'' or ''I like helping people'' over and over. Make connections between your background and pharmacy..seems obvious, but not everyone did so.
