Wish I would have known my interview would not include the "why CNCP?" and "why be a pharmacist?" types of questions... oh, and armrests on chairs may be uncomfortably high

What are your general comments?

My interview group was the first following the TBL, and they didn't give us the whole 30 min. Would have been nice to have the time to receive and give a few more questions.
