How did you prepare for the interview?
This particular forum/blog was very helpful! SDN blogs somewhat helpful. Studied all pages on their Pharmacy School website and alumni network. Talked to recent grads.
What impressed you positively?
The interviewer was very composed, didn't cause anyone to feel uncomfortable and I think we all learned something from her!
What impressed you negatively?
After the interview, several of us from the group said we wish we would have had more talking time, more discussion. Also, facilities - which are undoubtedly adequate and suite their job - are a little run down. If you're still impressed by the high tech class room, don't expect that here. However, from what I heard, that does NOT negatively impact your education. Don't let the appearances turn you down.
What are your general comments?
Very good. Really liked everyone - fellow applicants and Temple Faculty/Staff - I spoke to.
