How did you prepare for the interview?

Printed out everything on the U of A website, I wrote out responses to the basic questins asked: Tell us about you? How do you look at the Pharmacy profession? What volunteering have you done? What work experience have you involved yourself with? Any other healthcare related experience? What are three characteristics about yourself? Why U of A? What will make you a good PharmD?

What impressed you positively?

The setting was professional, the Dean and his staff were accomodating and positive. They were very proud of U of A, and had an information session dealing with many issues in the near future.

What impressed you negatively?

There wasn't a tour! I was kinda of upset about this, because I would have liked to look more at the campus and have a formal type of tour. The other thing was that I noticed was that everyone was from U of A!! That was cool, but I felt like the only one applying to other schools, and that WASN'T a U of A student! Surprising more than a negative I guess.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The essay preparation! I couldn't really prepare of course, but many schools have advertised non-science related questions. This one gave a scenario and asked you what you would do in that situation: The Surgeon General has invited you to help plan a way to improve prescription and non-prescription use in senior citizens. What is the elements, goals, and objectives of your plan, and how will you implement it. Or something that effect.

What are your general comments?

Overall, a very professional, excellent atmosphere. The students interviewing me were awesome guys, nice, I did not have anybody grilling me, or putting me in a touch spot! The Dean and everybody in admissions expect much of you! They were ligth hearted, yet serious and move through the process fast. I had a great time, and until my other interviews, I'm hoping I get in here!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
