How did you prepare for the interview?

Practiced questions from SDN. Read Pitt content from school's website. Other interview stuff from online.

What impressed you positively?

School's facilities were nice. They seem to take care of their students well. School is very well established. Area/location is beautiful- buildings are nice, looks like a mini-metropolitan area, lots of greenary. Great fitness center.

What impressed you negatively?

Gloomy weather. Students said it was very hard the first two years, but then I guess every dental school is. They almost seemed to put down their own school and speak highly of other schools. It confused me as to what they were trying to portray.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing.

What are your general comments?

I didnt speak much during the entire interview b/c my interviewer kept talking. He was a great guy and we clicked right away! So, the rest was history. I was notified of my acceptance within a week or two of interviewing there. The interview was just a casual conversation of my past experiences, thoughts, letters of recommendation, and future goals. Therefore I dont really remember distinct questions being asked.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
