Hi! Curious to know if the questions were more EI or clinical/pharm questions. I have my interview coming up and I'm feeling a bit nervous. Would you be willing to share any advice or tips from your experience?

It's hard to say if they will switch up their interview questions/style between interview days. So I don't want to lead you down the wrong path. Best wishes though!

Totally understand — thank you anyway! I am prepared for both. I appreciate the well wishes and hope your interview went well too. Good luck!

Now that interviews are over how did everyone feel like they did? Anyone know when we will hear back?

I'm feeling neutral at the moment. It's so hard to say how I did LOL. I looked at old threads and it seemed like they all heard back within a week-10 days of last interview date. Maybe we'll hear back Friday?

Has anyone heard back? I was looking at past threads on here and in the past few years everyone got an acceptance email within 2 weeks or sooner from the last interview date 😕😭

No I wonder why they interviewed us so early this year because in previous years they interviewed mid to late July. It's odd it's taking so long. I figured they'd tell us sooner bc they interviewed earlier. HAHA maybe they'll open up extra seats in their class because it's so hard to choose between all of us 😂🤞🏼
