"What would you do if a student in your group were caught plagiarizing his part of the project?

" Report Response | I was asked this question too

"SDN (the interview forums), thought about the questions a lot; didn't do any mock interviews to avoid sounding rehearsed (but I suggest doing at least 1 mock interview)." Report Response
"The interviewers were very nice. Took a lot of stress away, kept me from having a breakdown. Beautiful area, rural." Report Response
"The campus is very small (1 building), but I hear this is common ammong many pharmacy schools." Report Response
"That my hands sweat when I'm nervous and that it sucks to shake hands with someone who has sweaty hands; also, it seemed that they expected questions to be asked, and I didn't really have any. Other than that, not too much. This forum prevented any big surprises." Report Response
"My interview was at 9:00 a.m.; I got there about 10 mins. early. I stayed at the Holiday Inn Express, and it was litteraly a 4 min. drive to the school (I found the school the night before, which I recommend). I met with the 2 interviewers, (both women and both very nice); we sat in some chairs in an alcove in a hallway (not an office). They asked me about 10 questions, (I suck at small talk(!) so it only took like 20 mins); then I was given a tour by the student. After that I was given 30 min to write an essay. I think the question I chose (there were 2 to choose from) was "If a patient is having a hard time affording their meds, should they obtain them from a foreign country if they can get them cheaper that way?" I turned it in, said goodbye and was told to expect results in 2 weeks. I was very dissapointed on the way home. I thought for sure I blew the interview. I was nervous, stumbling over my answers and sounding like an idiot, even though the interviewers were patient and seemed understanding. I was shocked when I checked my email 8 days later to find and email letting me know I got in. Miracles do happen." Report Response
