✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Um...I brushed my teeth, combed my hair, showered, etc. The whole "researching" questions for preparation is a joke. If you can't get in there and answer things on the spot you have no business getting into dentistry.

What impressed you positively?

Everybody was so happy. All the administrators were extremely personal. U. Col. we didn't even get to meet any of the staff except for a few panelists.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing, the facility looked great. I guess life in Lincoln doesn't know much outside of Husker football, that could be a problem.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing, the place was great. 7 interviews and I honestly thought this was my best place ahead of Case, U Col, Ohio St, Oregon, U. Pacific, U Conn, and Washington...Nebraska beat them all believe it or not.

What are your general comments?

Walked in a room, sat down with two people and casual carried on a conversation. Question weren't threatened but rather relaxed like you might talk to a relative you haven't seen in years.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

No responses
