Teachers don't just teach but also make us understand the value of the knowledge that we are getting every day. All teachers are experts in their field. Also, the none teaching staff and authority members are very nice. Talking about exams, each semester has 2 sessionals(internal exams) and 1 internal practical before the final practical. The class test depends on the teacher and students. If you study well enough it will not be hard to crack those exams.

Interview Experience :
Your marks in 12 play important role in deciding whether you will undergo a test procedure or not. If getting more than 80% then you will just have to undergo an interview. In which they ask a few questions about your interest, the reason for choosing pharmacy, future goals, hobbies, a few study-related questions, personality, common sense and quick thinking based questions. Don't worry they are not too tough. Just use your brain. If you have less than 80% marks in 12 then you have to undergo Admission Test and Group Discussion, which decide your entry into college. The admission test is based on the 11 & 12 syllabus (35%-65%) it is not too deep and not hard just an overview of subjects and their studies. But what matters the most is good school records like attendance, character, extra curriculum score, etc. If you are good in that area, then you are sure to pass.
