The interviewers want to hear what part of pharmacy school was most stressful to determine what aspects of the residency program may be challenging. They also want to hear how you managed your stress so they can understand your coping mechanisms. Describe what you found most stressful and what steps you took to reduce your stress. You could also break down the most stressful part of each year and how you coped, showing the interviewers that you successfully managed your stress as each year progressed.

"The hardest part of pharmacy school was time management. After attending college for four years, I thought I had above-average time management skills, but pharmacy school was another story. With the increased course load and working a part-time job, it made time management very challenging and stressful. I started using a day planner and wrote down all my exams, meetings, practicals, shifts, bills, and due dates. I could then see where I had open gaps to schedule time for myself. I would use that time to exercise, rest, read for pleasure, and see friends and family. Once I got my time management under control, it made pharmacy school much less stressful."
