Hey,
I'm pretty much done with my interviews, and in retrospect, they weren't as hard as i thought. None of my interviewers brought up difficult questions, or inquired about my grades, research...etc. It was all about why pharmacy, what i like to do, what would i do if... etc... and it just seemed like a conversation...
So now I'm wondering, is such an interview a blessing or a curse? Should i have been boasting about my achievements, "selling myself"...etc or is this the way interviews are in general?
If that's the way they are...then how do they decide who gets in and who doesn't? Unless someone is truly socially inept or awkward...I'm guessing most of us are going to be similar... so is it all about the numbers then?
