How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN (compiled a list of interview quesions from TT and put them on Word, printed it, and went over them). Looked thouroughly at the school website

What impressed you positively?

i was skeptical about Amarillo, but i did come in at night. however, i drove around a bit the next day after the interview and the city seems very "homey". they have all the stores a big city should have and plenty of places to eat and cheap living. also, all the staff were extremely nice people and did whatever you needed to feel more comfortable. they really care about their program and it definately shows. also, the curriculum is very progressive and different from others i have seen; the chance to go to different sites for P3 and P4 is an amazing opportunity for students.

What impressed you negatively?

the current students seemed a bit arrogant and said some things during the Q&A session that probably should not be said to candidates extremely excited about attending this school.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

it was a lot colder than i thought it would be. also, how laid back the day was. it was not too stressful at all, except 10 min. before the interview, but everyone gets those nervous feelings. the day is long, yes, but very tolerable.

What are your general comments?

i think it went well. this being my first pharmacy school interview, Texas Tech really impressed and goes all out for their current and prospective students. the current students enjoy the program.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
