This question determines how heavily your emotions impact your decision-making. Allowing your emotions to dictate your behavior could inhibit your progress and your likelihood of success. You should never make life-changing decisions from a place of emotional stress. Your admissions interviewers want to assess how likely you are to drop out of school when confronted with feelings that may feel amplified by the other stressors you experience. Show your admissions interviewers you're equipped to handle such roadblocks with emotional intelligence and poise. Describe how you've met and overcome such challenges in the past. They are especially interested in how resourceful you are in overcoming such challenges, whether you've turned to your fellow students or your professors for guidance or help.

"When I encountered academic difficulty in the past, I recognized the issue early and approached my professor for additional information or study resources. With these resources, I either increase the time spent reviewing the class material or engage another person to increase my understanding of the topic. For instance, during my biophysical chemistry class this year, I fell behind as we approached the subject of molecular interactions. To ensure my success, I hired a Department of Chemistry tutor. This approach was beneficial, and I gained a much clearer understanding of the subject, which improved my grade. Should I come across any difficulties while attending this pharmacy program, I will not hesitate to seek outside assistance."
