What are your general comments?
They were blinded to our application, all the interviewers (one pharmacist, one faculty member, and one student) had was a paper with my name on the top with a series of questions underneath. They didn't know my GPA, PCAT, and hadn't read my letter of intent. There were 5 questions total, and they took turns asking the questions while taking notes as I answered. I felt very confident which I think helped my performance. The structure of the interview is, however, quite nerve racking.
