How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN, a lot. Read "101 Answers to the most difficult interview questions". Asked current dental student a lot of questions.

What impressed you positively?

The 3rd year student that gave my tour seemed to care abut the school and that I succeed. He gave advice concerning the professors that were to interview me.

What impressed you negatively?

The classroom section of the school is a bit cramped and entirely belowground. The lack of windows was disappointing. The clinics are upstairs and have plenty of natural light. The school will be moving to a new building and campus by August 2005. This new building is promised to be state of the art.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish that I arrived a bit earlier in order to talk with my competition at greater length.

What are your general comments?

The process took about 3 hours and started at 8 AM. All the candidates met in the student lounge and we had some time to talk. We then went to a classroom where the DA explained the admissions process and what was to happen that day. They also told us how to start the financial aid process. We then broke up into pre-designated groups and interviewed/toured. Overall I had a wonderful experience; with almost zero pressure and hassle!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
