Hey guys,

Just got an interview for Nov 22. Is anyone else coming from CA? And if so, did anyone find a good price for flights? I just checked, and it was showing around 400 dollars each way (yikes)

Thank you! I got it today actually (in the morning). I was kind of surprised considering my pharmcas doesn't show any updates at all (it only shows that my application and fee have been received) and my check still hasn't been cashed! Are you still waiting for yours?

I'm sure you'll get one soon...no worries! In case you're wondering, my pharmcas was received by them on October 3rd and my supplemental + fee were received Oct 19th. Maybe yours was received later and they'll email you shortly!

I'm coming from Los Angeles. Which part of CA are you coming from? I have noon interview. The air tix is pretty pricey. I paid 500 for my air tix roundtrip. Ouch~~~

I am trying to look for questions that are mostly asked at an interview, but feedback is empty. Do you guys think that CA Touro might have similar interview questions? Maybe someone doesnt mind to specify certain questions. Thanks a lot!

Hi Sparda29,

I was wondering if you could shed some light on Touro's overall program. What initially drew me was the whole 2+2 program and getting that experience early on. However, the more that I think about it, the more I wonder how it's possible to learn all of the material in just two years (I know some of the three year programs only do two years didactic but they also go year round). Did you feel prepared enough before starting your rotations?

Thanks for any info you can provide!

Just a notice for those who will attend the interview on 22nd, I just saw the forecast. It's a raining day. I don't want to get wet!!!

Anyway, just a reminder that you might get wet!!!

Can anyone tell me is there any hotel nearby Touro COP with a reasonable rate? is any of them has a special rate for interviewed students? So far all of the hotel recommended in the interview confirmation letter has a ridiculous rate for me (about $350+ per night)

Congrats to all of those who got in , and I am wishing the one waiting for interview the best of luck.

Hope to see you guys all next year.

BTW, There is a thread for Touro college of pharmacy class of 2016. Post your questions there, and im sure sparda would help you guys out
