How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

I studied the website and referred to other posted responses.

What impressed you positively?

The entire process was very low-key. I never felt that I was being tested or under serious review. The faculty went out of their way to make the experience pleasant.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really. I guess the high tuition is a negative. For me however, it is not such a big deal.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That the process is really a pleasant one.

What are your general comments?

The interview day consisted of a tour, a question and answer session, and the interview. The interview was very pleasant, and was more of a get to know you session. I would suggest asking questions. Not only Q's related to dental school, but ask the interviewer how long they've been in Boston, What made them consider dental academics, and where they attended dental school. I asked such questions which led to a very long and heartfelt conversation. I think more than anything, the schools are looking to see how your interpersonal skills are.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
