How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, ThePharmacistBlog.com videos on YouTube, and a mock interview

What impressed you positively?

The professors were very laid back and extremely nice. I was at ease with speaking to them; they're really friendly.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That it was nothing to worry about

What are your general comments?

20 minutes went by like a breeze. Also, I am actually a prepharmacy student. I know most of the people who fill these out are transfers, but I was a little disappointed that no one indicated that they were a prepharm in these surveys. So to any prepharm reading this: you have nothing to worry about. My mock interview was way more stressful that this one.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
