How did you prepare for the interview?

Looked at interview books and looked at the SDN website to see specific questions that were asked from the school I was having my interview at.

What impressed you positively?

Great facillities and up to date department. All the teacher's lectures were available on line so you can look over lectures again and again.

What impressed you negatively?

There wasn't much mention about the other campus so I didn't know much about the other campus. Also, 2/3 of the teacher's lectures are on the main campus and satelite over to the other campus.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The interview day was very long and lasted from 12:00 to 4:00 pm and there was no snack given or drinks given to us. They also had 2 essay questions: 1. Do you think that patients should have to sign consent forms understanding the risk before they get to pick up their medications. 2. Describe a time where you've demonstrate the most creativity.

What are your general comments?

I was very nervous and I had my interview as the last thing on my schedule.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
