if a group member was not participating in the group activity, then as a group leader, how will you handle the situation? and if that (whatever you answered) doesn't work, what else would you do?
tell me about your research.

What was the most interesting question?

none really...they were all pretty straightforward. i heard another girl got some question about being stuck on an island and having 3 other sick ppl with her...who would she treat first?.....i know, kind of a weird and vague question huh

What was the most difficult question?

a physician calls you(a pharmacist) about a prescription you feel that is not correct for the patient. what would you do? (it's not such a difficult question, but you can get a sense that the interview was not hard at all)
