What are your general comments?

The interview process started with an info session and then the group of ~30 applicants was split into those that would interview and those that were going to write an essay. The groups then would switch. My interview lasted about 40 minutes mostly because I asked questions about their program, they literally only asked me the questions I have posted. My 3 interviewers were alum PharmD from CU, a P2 student, and a faculty member on the admissions committee. The faculty member was all too serious about the process. (I manage a staff of 12 and I have interviewed and maintained that staff for the last 2.5 years, I know how to interview and how to conduct myself during an interview, I have personally interviewed nearly 80 individuals and I would never make an applicant be made to feel as uncomfortable I felt.) The committee member acted as though he could pressure me into fearing how “difficult” their program is. Thankfully that all ended and I moved on to the essay. Applicants are given 30 minutes to complete the essay topic (which I won’t be giving away). If I were planning to live on campus I would consider this school, otherwise I don't feel as though it is worth the drive into the middle of nowhere. It was not at all what I was really hoping for. If I am admitted I will be denying admissions and hoping I am accepted to my other school of choice.
