Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The simlab was very impressive, especially when all of the DS2 students were in there having class; all of the interviewers were very nice; Dr. Spears(head of research); the cafeteria

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

One of the 4th year students said if she could, she would have picked UTSA instead(I think b/c she said it was easier-less lab work); she also said how tough the 1st year was

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish that I wasn't so nervous when I met with Dr. Miller(Exec. Director of Admissions); she wasn't technically an interviewer, but she met with each applicant for approx. 5 minutes

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

I really enjoyed the day. I didn't know what to expect, but the school and faculty really impressed me. Dr. Spears has a lot of good information (be sure to ask good questions) during the conference room briefings. I haven't interviewed at UTSA or UTH yet, but I think they will have to prove to me that they are better than Baylor. The impression and vibes I got convinced me that Baylor will make you a complete and more confident dentist(versus UTSA and UTH).
