What are your general comments?
I had Wilcox (assistant Dean) and a pharmacist, so I was really nervous going in. The interview process is a LOT shorter here than other schools that I have interviewed at so far. Talking to the students before the interview calms you down, so be sure to ask them questions before your interview. Also, they asked me a bunch of questions about the pharmacy field and not any at all about how I was qualified FOR the school itself, but that's because I think they knew I worked in a pharmacy for awhile.
