💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

What area of Pharmacy do you want to work in?
What brought you to Pharmacy and our program?
What makes you think you can handle the very intensive curriculum?

What was the most interesting question?

If there are 300 people vying for one available spot, what makes me more qualified than them? I wasn't prepared for that one, but think I answered fairly well.

What was the most difficult question?

The first one, only because I was so nervous my mind was racing. My mind blanked for a moment, then looked at him and apologized, said that this was my first interview in a very long time & I was nervous. He kindly reassured me, said I have nothing to be nervous about, that I should think of this as really just a relaxed conversation. I was fine after that; he definitely put me at ease.

The relaxed comfortable atmosphere of the interview and the non-pressured questions. Also, the interviewer was honest and open about the program and his experiences with it.

What impressed you negatively?

Absolutely nothing. Interviews were run smoothly.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

It wasn't half as terrifying as I thought it would be :)

What are your general comments?

Fabulous. Essay was basic & easy (see other interview experiences for more details), interview was comfortable and easy-going, and everyone was relaxed and friendly. I was a little nervous after because the interviewer gave me no hints about how strong he thought my application was. I actually thought I was going to be waitlisted, but I got in! :)
