What are your general comments?

I was incredibly nervous when I arrived. Everybody I encountered was incredibly welcoming and it really helped put me at ease. By the time I finished the essay/quantitative test, I was no longer as nervous. The hallways of the school had groups of students talking and being very social. The interview got me really excited about starting pharmacy school.
