This question is mainly for those who has already been interviewed before. Just wondering what kind of interview questions you will be ask during an interview, or at least the question that was hard or struck you unexpectedly, you don't have to be precise. Also I heard you have to write an essay after the interview also. 🙁

There is an "interview feedback" link at the very top of the page. It looks helpful.

Thread moved to pre-pharm forum due to topic.

Yup, the interview feedback is very helpful. You can also do a search of this forum as this has been covered quite extensively already and there are some good threads out there.

Please start using to search function. It's easy. I promise. But I'll get you started.

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, some schools make you write an essay during the interview. These are schools that usually do not look at the writing portion of the PCAT. They want to see that you can write coherently, and that you have basic reasoning skills. From my personal experience, the prompts are similar to the ones that you will get on the PCAT, so you can look at some of those to get a feeling of what will be asked.
