SDN, talked to pharmacy students
What impressed you positively?
The Dean took time out of her day to speak to candidates, which spoke to the accessible nature of the faculty and administration at this school. The student tour guides were also very friendly. Historical charm of the campus.
What impressed you negatively?
Location is isolated. Some of the other candidates were rude and I was embarrassed when they interrupted the Dean and faculty interviewers.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Just be yourself during the group interview! Don't talk too much, articulate and carefully chosen, but honest and natural responses are most impressive.
What are your general comments?
Group interviews are both a blessing and curse, but overall interviewing in a group was a positive experience. It was interesting to learn how and why other students were interested in pharmacy and Touro. Everyone was extremely friendly, both students and faculty, and symbolic of such a positive experience.
