"Group interview: What do you think about Plan B? What do you think about Walmart's $4 prescription? What do you think about having alcohol and smoking stuff in the pharmacy store?" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"Student interview: Why pharmacy? Why MD? Why not medical? What would be your greatest sacrifice by coming here? What are your strength and weaknesses? What do you do in your spare time? Are you part of any organizations?" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"Faculty interview: Is there anything you would like to tell me about yourself that you think would help you in getting accepted? What did you think of your day so far, what about the essay you wrote? What did you write about?" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"If you were a pharmacist, and a patient comes in w/ a prescription with what you thought was a lethal dosage. You call the doctor and still the doctor tells you to fill it. What do you do?" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"What will you do if you don't get accepted into Maryland (this is not the most difficult question for me, but it was hard to answer because...if I don't get into MD, which is my first choice, I'd go somewhere else...and finding a nice way of saying, I'm sorry, I wouldn't apply to your school again, was not easy)" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"SDN and practicing questions" Report Response
"They were very organized, with presentation, and time." Report Response
"The area...and I had my interview on what is considered, so far, the coldest day of the year. I was also surprised that not all the classes were held in one building. If you are a more campus person (I'm from UMCP, where there is a physical campus) it could be hard to get used to. " Report Response
"That the one on one interview with the student, was much less conversational. Very much question and answer, which confused me slightly. Of my 3 interviews, this was the only one, not conversational. It made me feel like I did something wrong to have such a serious interview." Report Response
"We sat around talking to everyone in a conference like room. Someone comes in to talk about the interview day, the new campus @ Shady Grove, the acceptance rate, and how soon we would hear from them. Then we separated into different groups. I had my group interview first. There are about 6 interviewees, and two students. Very informal, you can speak up and answer questions if you like, but there was no pressure. It's a good time to see how you interact in a group setting. Essay is 45 minutes long. You read an article and respond to it. You can write in pen or pencil. Student interview can be one-on-one or with two students. A lot of the ethical questions are asked during this time. " Report Response
