What are your general comments?
First, there was an introduction done by the admissions dean, his assistant, and a financial aid officer. Then students were taken on tours by a pharmacy school student (there was only two people in my group). After that, the interveiwees were split into three groups. One group had faculty interviews for about 30 minutes, one group stayed in the conference room and "mingled" with the admissions dean, his assistants, and Mercer students for 30 minutes. The third group had a 15 minute interview with a student, and then did a 15 minute writing assignment.
