How did you prepare for the interview?

Talked to people who were in pharmacy school, people who were in my class who had interviewed, and looked at reviews from this website.

What impressed you positively?

The other guy who was doing my interview was running late so I had to sit outside with the first guy who interviewed me. Every student that went past us knew the professor and he knew them. This wasn't just a friendly hey, they would talk for a few minutes. It seemed like the professors really care about the students and they have a great relationship.

What impressed you negatively?

Tuition but can't escape that

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

To be more relaxed because the first interviewer picked up on this when I only sat on the edge of the chair.

What are your general comments?

It was overall a very stress free experience. The first interview was kind of nerve racking, but by second one I was very relaxed and easily answered every question.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
