Tufts seems like a really good school to go to if one doesn't mind the expensive tuition of a private school and living expenses of residing in Boston.
💬 Interview Process
How did you prepare for the interview?
looked at SDN, Tufts website, read the materials they sent, looked at general interview prep web sites
What was the most difficult question?
none, maybe the common and expected question "Why dentistry" due to the various ways one could theoretically respond to the question. Basically there weren't any difficult or unexpected questions.
What impressed you positively?
How friendly and nice the staff and interviewer were
What impressed you negatively?
places to eat at the school is limited and doesn't look appetizing. (For example, I recall seeing on the tour an oversized closet-sized room that supposedly feeds 500 people over the course of the day).
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
how extremely laid back the interview really was. The interview was said to be closed file, but my interviewer looked at my file during interview. It's that laid back.
