Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

Very welcoming and seemed interested in all of the answers and discussions had.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

Both interviewers were PhD's and professors in research and other science related fields, nervous for the disconnect between dentistry and clinical experience. No other information given or offered other than getting on and getting off for the interview.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Go in person vs. virtual, both were offered and due to traveling and prior commitments, I had to choose the virtual option. I felt lost due to not receiving any other information, doing a tour of the facilities, and not being able to meet members of the admissions staff and current students. I did participate in a virtual tour that is offered on their website, but it doesn't compare to in-person tour and conversations.
