What are your general comments?

"the interview is group interview, so it's better for you to out shine the rest students in the same group with you. There will be a big table and students just sit around. If you sit close to the interviers maybe they will remember you. Keep smiling always! They have to write down notes during interview, so keep in mind that give them time to write down your information. My first question is introduce yourself. This is a question you can expand more. There is not particular order who go first or last. If you wanna go first, then go ahead but you don't have to. During question like ''tell me about yourself'', please say as much as you can that is positive about yourself. For example, why u wanna be a pharmacist, your motivation, your background info(mayjor, from where, work as tech, volunteer here and there, what's so special about you, your undergraduate research, etc, anything you do related to health care, something make you memorable). Other questions includes: what is your hobbies? Question: describe a situation that you have to make a big decision. Give example to show you are a compassionate person. And some questions about pharm tech work exp. There will be two interviewers, they both have a list of questions and they will pick randomly. Tips: Always be positive, confident, formal dress. my essay was describe what aspects/characters do you think are necessary to succceed in professional level study. I wrote something like ethical, time management, active study etc. They have many different topics and they are given randomly. When I was answering my first question, I was so nervous that my voice sounds like I was crying. Take a deep breath, and after a couple rounds, you will be more relaxed. Before go to interview, make a list of positive things about yourself, and make sure you mentioned all of them during interview. " Report Response
