How did you prepare for the interview?

I didn't really prepare for it. Since we were told that it would be a closed interview, I figured I would wing it and be myself.

What impressed you positively?

The new curriculum and the overall positive comments made by the dental students.

What impressed you negatively?

That the interview was 'closed' and yet the interviewer asked me about my GPA and DAT scores. Also, San Fransisco is a really expenisive place to live in.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That it was not going to be too stressful.

What are your general comments?

This is a wonderful school and the day was well organized. My faculty and student interviewers were great and answered all of my questions. I especially appreciated their frankness in their responses. After my experience there, UCSF jumped to the top of my list.
