How did you prepare for the interview?

"I read about others' interview experiences on this studentdoctor.net website and thought about the types of questions they were likely to ask me and how I would answer them." Report Response

What impressed you positively?

"The interviewers were very nice even if I was so nervous at them not liking me for some reason. The 3 pharmacy students that were there were also really nice and informative, very down-to-earth, joking around and such." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"They asked me so many questions I just kinda felt like I was being interrogated, but they said they were trying to determine if I had "insight." I just answered the questions as comfortably as I could, in a conversational manner. (the only interviewees were one girl and I, so they said our interviews would probably be longer than the previous day's interviews)." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"We introduced ourselves, sat at a big table, and were asked to write a short (1-2 page) essay on a question. We each had a different question. Then, I was taken back to a different room for my interview for 15 minutes, returned to the room we started in, and the girl went for her interview. While I was being interviewed, she conversed with the 3 pharmacy students present, and I did the same while she was gone. We were encouraged to ask any questions about UGA and the pharmacy experience." Report Response
