There were previous posts similar to this question, but I cannot really get the point.
So I'll ask.
I just got interview requests from few schools.
Since my stats weren't great, I was very surprised that I even got an interview.
I wasn't really expect it!!
Soooo~
1. If I received an interview offer, what is this mean? Is this mean I can have my hopes up to get my admission to pharmacy school?
2. on pharmcas, what is the meaning of number accepted and class size?
so if all the students who got accepted, accept the admission, wouldn't this mean the class size=number accepted?

Lastly,
any interview tips?

Thanks!!

An interview means you have a shot at admissions, yes. 👍

Not everyone who gets accepted to a school goes to that school. You will get multiple acceptances and you will have to make a choice. So no number accepted will not equal class size.

For interview tips, look at the interview feedback section of SDN.

1) You're 50% of getting in to that school so the other 50% is based on your interview 🙂

2) Number accepted means they accepted, for example, 190 students, but only 120 go to that school (70 students go to other school).

Interview tips: look sharp, wear clothes that stand out (but not too much), read over your resumes, essays, etc., take notes during your interview, ask a lot of questions at the end of your interview, and write thank you letters to your interviewers. GL!
