Hey I think you still have a great chance of getting in. Like Hilda said the reserve pool gets reviewed every month so don't worry. You got interviewed early which increases your chances a lot. Just be positive and I wish you the best of luck
Hey,
I was interviewed on 27th as well but i was placed in reserve pool. Do you have any suggestions for me
Thanks

This is a closed file interview. You will be divided into two groups.
For example:
Group A:
1) Will meet with professors. Then...
2) Group interview (small group project and then go to comp lab to type out all your responses individually).
Group B:
1) Group interview (small group project and then go to comp lab to type out all your responses individually). Then...
2) Will meet with professors.
Be relax!!! Just like meet up with new people/new friends.
Good luck to those who will attend upcoming interview.
Hi, what does it mean by small group project??
Do you guys know whether today is the day that we are expecting from hear back from the school?
accepted
Hey RX2020. Wow you first round of interviews! I know ur probably upset about being put on the reserve list but its not as bad as you think. I don't know how many touro threads you have read but i've read A LOT. The fact that you were interviewed so early gives you an advantage. Though ur not in yet you have an extremely high chance of eventually being accepted because you got put on it so early. I know the group that I interviewed with most weren't nearly as interested in going to touro as I was. So lets say they get accepted but reject the offer then you'd get their offer.
Also, if you look at the 2015 thread you'll see that almost all who got put on the reserve list early eventually got excepted. Now i know not everyone is on SDN but those who use this as a resource have a good advantage.
Your post make me feel much better!!!thank u!!!R u sure almost all people get accept from the early reverse pool?
Congrats!!!
When were you interviewed? and please your stats if you don't mind!!!
Thank God!!! Accepted the offer~~~ I'm going to NYC and experiencing the adventurous life for the next 4 years~~~
Do we get any updates from Admission in regards to our app status?
Such as still on reserved pool or accepted?
Seems like we wont know until the class size is full which is next year
i think they should update the infor every month for us~~~~Seems like we wont know until the class size is full which is next year
Have you applied to other schools?
I haven't taken the PCAT and most schools require september scores. So No I did not. If i dont get in, I will shoot for next cycle!!!!
I see. I haven't had my PCAT too and I scheduled for this upcoming January. So, I will cancel the appointment and get my refund.
RX2020, never ever lose HOPE~~~

Congrats! I hope i get off this reserve pool and join you.
You will be given a scenario. There will be questions at the end of the scenario. So, you guys will discuss the scenario and the questions. Later on, you will move to comp lab to type out your own responses.
The purposes of this are the professors will evaluate you based on how you work out with group settings or team works. This is very important no just in academic, but also in the real world!!!
Good luck~~~
is reserve pool another way of rejecting?
are u sure it is not silent rejection??haha~~~how much chance can we get in???NO if we were rejected or wait listed they will not consider our application against others each month (you only get off wait-list if someone gives up their seat). reserve pool we are still competing for seats for 2016.
is this the same as onsite essays? So the onsite essays is based on group discussion?
so does the interview consist of interview questions, then scenario, and then finally typing out a response in 45 minutes?
Thanks!

Congraaats!
Got an admission update and I was placed in reserve pool again this month
Interviewed on 11/10, got put into the reserve pool. Anyone else that interview from that day hear back?
Did you ask why you are placed in the reserve pool?
Got an admission update and I was placed in reserve pool again this month
Stay positive, I am. It was probably too early to stake people out of the reserve pool. Maybe they who take anyone off til dec.
I am as I was asked to supply my spring schedule.
I hope I get in if not, I will apply for class of 2017
Thanks
hey guys! For those who had interviews during November, what questions did they ask you? Were they hard questions? T____T
Go to look for 2015 Touro College of Pharmacy - NY thread. You will get tons of questions. Hard questions, Hmmm... I would say "NO" because lots of questions are life experiences and what you had learned from these life experiences. Always stay positive on top of your answers.
For example: Nobody is perfect!!! Also, everyone has failure because of wrong decisions. But, how you worked it out to make it right since you know what is wrong!!! From this, the interviewers evaluate you by maturity!!!
Good luck~~~
Hi, is touro from NY same as CA? Because the Massachusetts only allow 1 campus application. Can we apply to both pharmacy program in the same year?? thanks!
Yes, both are the same, but will manage differently due to the two different locations. You meant Boston in MA? I'm not quite sure about this. What do you mean by "apply to both pharmacy program in the same year?"?
So I just read some stuff from touro NYC. I heard something about group interview/group exercise.
Is the exercise the only group thing? or the interview questions a group thing too in California?
In NYC, it seems like exercise is the only group thing, and then it is 2 faculty to 1 student in the interview questions.
Thanks
like if you apply to boston in MA, then u cannot apply to worchester from massacheutts.
Like applying to Touro in CA and NYC in the same year.
Thanks
I didn't know if there's any policy like this, but I did apply both Touro CA and NYC. Double check with the schools first and don't waste your money on applications. Apply to the schools that fit you the most. Also, your GPA, scores, curriculum, and others that exceed the minimum requirements of the schools. Of course, you like the study environment!!! And finally, you enjoy and happy with it.
Good luck~~~
I hope to see you in c/o 2016. Good luck and stay positive always~~~
