hi! i applied this year and got an offer for 2025! i'm not sure if you need help but it was super chill, only 4 questions relating to why the course, why the uni and i had 2 situational judgement questions that were very manageable so don't stress too hard :smile:
and if you've already done it, i hope it was great

Could I ask what resources you used to help you prepare for the situational judgement questions? Also around how long did the interview last for?🤍

i pretty much used no resources except ones i found here on tsr but i might not be remembering correctly because i had that interview back in november
the interview was quite quick, about 10 minutes iirc
if you look on blackstone tutors website for uoM pharmacy interview questions, there are some sjt ones there and i'm pretty sure like 2 of them were on my interview so have a look at that

Thank you so muchhh!! I’m not too sure on how pharmacy interviews usually go so I’m trying to research as much as I can on it and it’s stressing me out 😮*💨😮*💨 Also this is just a general question but do you think the pharmacy interviews require a lot of prep beforehand?
