💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Describe a time where you came across a situation that you didn't know what to do. P.S. ask the interviewers most of you questons, not the 2nd year students. If you already did ask the second years, ask the same questions again. My faculty member barley asked any questions and whenever there were moments of silence, I filled them up by asking her about what she teaches and where she graduated from. Talk talk talk.
What is the most important role of a pharmacist?
Why UOP if you have 5 other schools to choose from? Why pharmacy? Tell me about yourself.

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, read up on current events, practiced questions in my head, asked pharmacists.

What impressed you positively?

The new building was amazing. They are very high-tech and really seem to care about their students. The dorms are new and spacious. Overall, I got more than what I expected

What impressed you negatively?

The city around it. I am from L.A so I'm not used to the low-maintanence lifestyle of Stockton. But, it's only two years that you actually have to stay there, so I can handle it.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

To take an earlier flight home.

What are your general comments?

When I first read about UOP on SDN, I was so disappointed with all the negative comments. After visiting UOP, I was VERY impressed. Basically, judge the school for yourself, don't just listen to other people's reviews. By the way, the faculty member doesn't have any of your files, but the student interviewer does. They interview you seperatley. Two, 25 minute interviews.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
