Hi all!
I tried searching for this, but I didn't really find what I was looking for.

I have an interview with PBA on November 13th, and I was looking for some of the interview questions I might be asked. I was surprised that I got an interview, since my stats are low, but I have a lot of pharmacy experience and extracurricular activities, so maybe this is why? I don't know, I am just happy to have an interview.
Any advice to get over the nerves? It would help out a lot if I had an idea of what the questions might be.

If you're a PBA student, please PM me. I have so many questions to ask and I would really appreciate some insight. Thanks! 🙂
 
Easiest way to do this.

The Pre-Pharmacy FAQ is a good place to start

The interview feedback is where you would go next

Look at whatever school you're interviewing at or may be applying to.

Next I would search for "interview questions" in the search option. That's what I did when I first started on this forum, and I found these two threads that were very helpful.

Lastly, if you have the time, read the thread from last year for your school. You might not get any interview questions, but I know people talk about how things are set up, if there are any tours, and any info that you might need.

Did you find that most of those questions in the last 2 links were accurate?

Most questions I was asked during interviews showed up on one of the links I posted. The last two links are more general questions. Schools sometimes have more unique questions which you can usually find in the interview feedback section.

But you can't expect the question to be asked in the same way. Thats why you can't memorize answers. Know what you want to say but still be able to tailor your response to fit the question asked.
