The obvious one are -

•

Why Pharmacy (ie. and not Medical Science etc)

•

Why this University

•

Questions about Organic Chemistry

•

Simple Maths test

•

'What would you do if' questions, often focussed on ethics or confidentiality

•

'Tell me about a time when you dealt with a difficult person/situation'.

Lots of useful resources / links - here - Useful resources for MPharm PS and Interviews - The Student Room

Hello! I did my pharmacy interviews a few years ago and got offers for UCL, Nottingham, Manchester, Cardiff and Strathclyde. The biggest tip I can share is having definitely having a read of the '9 Standards for Pharmacy Professionals'. A lot of my questions were based around what they mean and how you would apply them as a pharmacist.
There's usually a few maths and chemistry questions but I wouldn't say they go beyond GCSE level.

Do you get ethical scenarios to answer? I applied to Strathclyde in Glasgow and Robert Gordon in Aberdeen last year but not sure if English Universities are different?
