How did you prepare for the interview?

Had questions written down that I could ask them. Dressed up in a nice suit and tie. Shaved, but not my legs (I'm a guy). Would recommend brushing your teeth before a dental school interview :-).

What impressed you positively?

Beautiful facilities, beautiful school, amazing climate, friendly professors and administration (most of which really enjoy working there), students were positive about the program and location. Location is AWESOME!!!

What impressed you negatively?

NOTHING!...Seriously. Loved it, and still do.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

that i should have rented a car while here...there is so much to see while visiting. The beach is a must...

What are your general comments?

My interview experience was excellent. I was not a top applicant grade wise, but my DAT was good and do well with people, so my interview went well. I enjoyed visiting Nova and seeing how nice it is. I'm a student here now and I still think its great. I enjoyed taking my National Boards Part I after my first year (passed just fine). I think that is a GREAT idea. Excellent pre-clinic lab preparation.
