What are your general comments?

The day began at 8 am, and each candidate was given a folder with information about faculty members, agenda, and information about Phoenix. Interviews were scheduled throughout the day from 8:30 to 11:30. There were three panels, and each panel consisted of a wide spectrum of professionals. One panel consisted of two faculty members and a preceptor. Another consisted of three professors. The final consisted of one professor, one preceptor, and a pharmacy student. From the information I gathered, the interviewing style varied significantly from panel to panel. One panel concentrated on questions found on this website. Another asked experiential questions like "tell me about a time" type questions. Some had difficult interviews and others had a wonderful experience. It really depends on who interviews you. A lot of people seemed nervous the entire time, and some just did not know what to expect. There was a lot of uncertainty in how people stood after the interview. After the interview we were treated to lunch by the university. Then the Dean gave a presentation on the school. The day ended with financial aid presentation. Expect to get out by 2:30. Expect to find out in 4 weeks.
