💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
Why dentistry and not any other occupation in the health industry?
What was the most interesting question?
Say a train was speeding towards a fork in the track. One side of the fork was an alternate route and has not been functional in 10yrs. A boy is playing on that side. The other side of the fork is functional and has fifteen people on the track. You only have time to let one group know that a train is coming. Who would you try to save?
How did you prepare for the interview?
SDN, school website, spoke to faculty and deans of school.
What was the most difficult question?
Nothing really difficult, except for the random question above.
What impressed you positively?
Facilities are nice (although a bit small), faculty and admissions staff seemed to know the students well, interview was very very casual and laid back.
What impressed you negatively?
Although my interview was very relaxed, the interviewer kept badgering me about my answer to the train question, as if there were a right or wrong answer. Rather strange...
