What are your general comments?
orientation, interview (i was in the very first interview slot), break time with student hosts to answer any questions you have, essay, campus tour, financial aid and student services info session. be sure you eat a BIG meal before you come because you're gonna get hungry by the end. i swear i heard everybody's stomach growling, but you ahve to expect that after a 6 hour day.
💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
if a group member was not participating in the group activity, then as a group leader, how will you handle the situation? and if that (whatever you answered) doesn't work, what else would you do?
What was the most interesting question?
none really...they were all pretty straightforward. i heard another girl got some question about being stuck on an island and having 3 other sick ppl with her...who would she treat first?.....i know, kind of a weird and vague question huh
How did you prepare for the interview?
sdn, memorized my "tell me about yourself" answer, research the school and prepare some questions for them (they give you 10/30 minutes during your interview to ask questions)
What was the most difficult question?
a physician calls you(a pharmacist) about a prescription you feel that is not correct for the patient. what would you do? (it's not such a difficult question, but you can get a sense that the interview was not hard at all)
What impressed you positively?
the faculty, current students...they were all very helpful and nice. how technologically advanced the classrooms were.

the location and accommodations for the student life on campus.
