How did you prepare for the interview?

I looked at Student doctor, made up some of my own questions,and reaserched the school and area.

What impressed you positively?

The interview process was done very well, everyone was very nice and the group of students being interviewed was diverse.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing, I took the bus to the school from my hotel. It was very easy to ride the bus and was a short trip. I also visited the zoo and I loved it. :)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The airport is quite a ways from the pharmacy school so give yourself enough time to get there.

What are your general comments?

In the morning they quickly discussed financial aid and their curriculum. Then we went to take a short test on easy biology, math and writing. We were given an article and asked questions about it. Then we either relaxed or went to our interviews with a professor and 3rd year student. Last we did a group exercise. The group exercise was not stressful and actually was kind of fun.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
