How did you prepare for the interview?

Mock interviews at school, practiced with family and friends, looking at the interview feedback on SDN.

What impressed you positively?

Everything! Friendly faculty, impressive curriculum, current students seem happy with the program.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Not to stress so much!! It was such a relaxing day and I was overly stressed about it. Also, beware that it's not just an interview and then you leave, it's a a whole day of activities. You will be there until 3 p.m. Wear comfortable shoes:)

What are your general comments?

The school is great and everyone is super friendly. Try to stay calm, don't stress out like I did! And even if you stumble on a question, it's okay. Just make sure you know why you want to pursue pharmacy and know how to articulate it clearly to your interviewers.
