What are your general comments?

I had a very positive experience. My interviewer asked basic questions about my research, why i chose dentistry as opposed to medical school, where i was from etc. to spark up conversations. She shared alot about the school and also answered questions i had for her. We even talked about spa places... haha. Just be honest and don't be nervous!!!
