How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN interview feedback, talked with students at the school, rehearsed common questions

What impressed you positively?

How friendly and relaxed everybody was, including the interviewees. I felt that the social function the night before helped to ease the nervousness and allowed students and interviewees to chat openly during the day on Saturday. The faculties are amazing and the students really seemed excited about being at UNC. Our tour guides couldn't say enough good things.

What impressed you negatively?

nothing really.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That the student interview is closed file. I thought that my student interviewer had read my application previously.

What are your general comments?

Great school with a great faculty and great facilities. The faculty really cares about their students and I sensed that they try very hard to turn them into good dentists. I also enjoyed that it was less stressful than I had imagined. I was still nervous, but in a good way.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
