What are your general comments?
It was really just a conversation with the interviewers! They were really nice, attentive, and genuinely interested in getting to know you. Just go in there with a mindset of talking to someone about what draws you to pharmacy! I think you will naturally be able to impress them as long as you are knowledgeable about the field. Don't worry. The interviewers are very very nice!
💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
The questions all flowed together. They didn't ask any questions that weren't on SDN or from my essay. It really seemed like they just wanted to get to know me in the interview, so just be sure to know yourself -- why you want to be a pharmacist, hot topics in pharmacy, experiences that you've had that have shaped your character. No questions out of the ordinary or predictable.

What impressed you positively?
To all the people reading this -- the UT pharmacy school has a WONDERFUL interviewing process. I was incredibly nervous, but I really like the way they ask their questions. Rather than asking a simple, "What would you do in this situation," they set up the question really well with pertinent information. This extra time to think and formulate my answers was a really helpful way to calm my nerves. The interviewers were incredibly encouraging as well! Really great interview process, just be sure to know yourself!
