What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

If you were an independent pharmacy owner and you had the option of: A: upgrading insurance billing software B: upgrading drug interaction software C: upgrading business management software Which one would you upgrade and why? (this was the ethical question, how easy of course patient care is #1) I heard that they asked a ethical quesiton about the terry schivaio case. There is also the posbility of the the flu shot question "If you have one flu shot and either and 87 year old man gets it or a 2 year old boy gets it, Who do you give it to and why?" I'm glad that I didn't get that one.

What type of experience do you have in the pharmacy field and tell us about what you did in the pharmacy? Of course they asked this question "Why do you want to be a pharmacist?" The essay question that I got was "what experience in your life had the greatest impact on you eading you to choose the pharmacy field for a profession?" They gave my 20 minutes.

What are your general comments?

The experience as a whole was good. I expected almost all the questions that they asked me, nothing out of the ordinary. I was really nervous at the beginning but then it was ok after the first question. After practing from questions on SND I knew what I wanted to say and worked it in during the questions. I just answered the question then weaved in what else I wanted them to know about me.
