No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

mock interviews, reviewing interview questions from other schools, reviewing my application.

What impressed you positively?

The members of the staff and the current student body were extremely nice and helpful. They really tried to put you at ease.

What impressed you negatively?

One of the buildings was closed during the tour so we didnt get to go in.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How relaxed the whole procedure was, and how friendly all of the other applicants were.

What are your general comments?

First the dean of pharmacy talked to us, all of the interviewers introduced themselves and then the applicants did the same. We were given the opportunity to speak with students currently enrolled in the pharm. program. We then had our writing exercise and when we were done with that we either had our interview or tour of the school. The tour is kinda long so wear sensible shoes. There is nothing to be afraid of.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
