How did you prepare for the interview?

UCLA website, reread application

What impressed you positively?

UCLA is an excellent school all around. The location is great, the women are gorgeous, and the weather is unbelievable. The faculty are also of a higher caliber, and treat the applicants and students exceptionally well. The dentistry building is conveniently adjoined to the rest of the huge UCLA campus, and Westwood, Bel-Air, and Beverly Hills are just across their respective streets. This was an intense interview however, prepared to have your brain picked. I would go to UCLA in a second!

What impressed you negatively?

Parking rates, no paid lunch (small issues)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Parking is not directly in front of the building, that is for patients only. I arrived 10 mins early, but by the time I was told to park at a different structure and found parking, I arrived at checkin 5 mins late

What are your general comments?

UCLA is an excellent institution, and the dental school definitely continues on the same line. Every aspect that anyone could look for in a dental school is provided at UCLA. The campus, weather, people, and activities are more than anyone could ask for. Not just the Harvard of the west coast, it's sooo much more.
