Most likely the questions will be based on the type of patients you deal with in the unit. I also found the sticky about interview questions very helpful and informative.

ThanksGood for you! Are you from Ohio? A list of books were included in their Letter of Acceptance. I dunno if i'll get interviewed but they said although I am qualified, I will have to take some core courses to be competitive. What about you, Have you taken any? I can't seem to find a school in southern cali that will admit non-degree seeking students... When is your interview by the way?
