What impressed you positively?

"I felt relaxed (considering this was my first inverview) during the interview itself." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"The tour...none of the student guides knew where anything was, and they had to keep stopping the group to ask for directions. Also, my interviewer was reading questions off of a paper and asking me things I had already answered. I felt like he was just going through the motions, reading off his paper, and not really analyzing what he was doing or listening to what I was saying." Report Response

"There wasn't much in the way of surprises. Just be sure you arrive early!" Report Response

What are your general comments?

"The interview consisted of a welcome, 4 30-minute time slots, and then a closing and reception. The interview group was divided into 4 groups for the 4 time slots, and they rotated through the interview, the essay (looking for handwriting and ability to communicate clearly), the tour, and the "showcase" (basically more tour). Then, they had the closing, which was also when you fill out the evaluation (it was difficult to write because they were talking and you wanted to listen). Then they had cookies and soda in the reception. Also, there was one PharmD student for every 2 interviewees, so you kind of had a "mentor" for the day." Report Response
