What impressed you positively?

"Though Dr. Facione was serious, he also had a sense of humor which helped put me at ease. He's a tough evaluator but also fair. The P-1 students who conducted the campus tour were very nice and positive about their experiences in pharmacy school so far." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"I was hoping to be asked more questions like: Why Sullivan? What are the significant challenges for the future of pharmacy/pharmacists? Are you a leader or a follower? I had great answers for these that I think would have positively impacted my interview but with my lack of interview experience I'm not very adept at weaving in the answers when they are not specifically addressed." Report Response

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"That Dr. Facione was going to spend the first 10 - 15 minutes talking about my grades and challenges in school! Also, I only had two questions for him at the end - I recommend you have more if you want to avoid lulls in the conversation which can be awkward!" Report Response

What are your general comments?

"Though I have worked hard in college and feel I have a lot to offer Sullivan, I advise those of you who aren't the strongest candidates gradewise to be very prepared to address the issue. In hindsight, I could think of a lot I could've said which will help prepare me for my future interviews. I liked the hotel I stayed at because it was reasonably priced and they had free shuttle service to and from the airport so I didn't have to rent a car. They were also very helpful in assisting me with getting a taxi to and from the interview." Report Response
