"Practicing my answers to common interview questions that I got from SDN, believing in myself, practicing my interview with a stuffed animal" Report Response
"the quality of the education program, how friendly and stressed-free everyone is, and how beautiful the surroundings are, as well as the fact that even though the UCSD pharmacy program is relatively new, it is still up to par and even better than well established ones like UCSF and especially USC. UCSD definitely humiliated USC in my opinion. It wasn't even a contest." Report Response
"People started chatting in the room where we were all writing our essays. Those inconsiderate bitches should really shut up. We are trying to write a timed essay here. They really should have gone outside to start their conversations." Report Response
"That it was open file. The interviews around know a lot about you from your personal statements and supplemental essays. The interview serves so that they can know more out your personality and what kind of a leader are you,,,and if you are a stressed free jolly person or not. They are looking for people with natural intelligence and common sense, instead of a hardworker, who memorizes slides all day and can vomit everything out during an exam and then forget what he/she memorized next quarter. " Report Response
"Very fun, got free cookies and milk, which I recommend you drink after you do the interview. Some people had milk breath and surprisingly no one had a breath mint. They lead you to this room where you receive a presentation about how great this school is. Then, you get started on your essay. And all the while, interviewers will come in and call you and lead you to a room, where you will be with one professor and one first year student. The first question is 98%: tell me about yourself. Make this a conversation. Include the interviewers in your conversation because the interview is an interaction, which means both the interviewers and interviewee have to interact. Be friendly and honest. Don't give wishy-washy answers. They can tell if you suck. Therefore, just be youself. Don't stress, love the moment." Report Response
