💬 Interview Questions
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
Why Pharmacy? This was a typical question and every interviewee should be prepared to answer this one in a unique manner.
What was the most interesting question?
Describe your chemistry background. This was weird because they have my courses on file. I transitioned my chemistry background and laboratory classes discussion to my independent research I did in Biology. The interviewer that did research for the university seemed intrigued.
What was the most difficult question?
There wasn't a difficult question. However, I was under the assumption I would be asked three questions. I didnt know SDN feedback allows the entry of only three questions. I was asked close to 6 questions.
