How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Talked with my father and uncle(both are pharmacists) and made sure I knew exactly what pharmacists responsiblities were and what a good pharmacist needed to do and know.

What impressed you positively?

The students and faculty were extremely nice and very helpful. The interviews were not extremely formal, but they were well organized.

What impressed you negatively?

There was no formal tour of the facilities.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Students and faculty made the curriculum and schoolwork sound a little more labor and time-intensive than I had anticipated.

What are your general comments?

Info session, followed by a short exam, which consisted of ten math questions, mainly simple conversions, ten multiple-choice biology ?'s(super-easy ones), and a short one-page written essay on a newspaper article. There was than an interview with one faculty member and one student. Each applicant was asked the same ?'s, but not by the same people. The last activity was a group communication assessment, which consisted of 6-7 applicants working together to rank ten given qualities that a pharmacist should have in order of importance.
