How did you prepare for the interview?

Practice, relax, and try to find the school ahead of time.

What impressed you positively?

The atmosphere here is definitely the most friendly and laid back out of the three Texas Dental schools. The school emphasizes working together and doing your best.

What impressed you negatively?

Facilities aren't the best but they're good enough. They're National Board Scores are very good, but the school seems to be "less recognized" than, say, San Antonio.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

One of the faculty/admissions directors likes to give hypothetical situations and each student answers what they would do/how they would act. Pay attention throughout but stay awake..it's a long day (8:30-3:30/4).

What are your general comments?

Excellent. Interviewer was very nice, I think I hugged her afterwards. Everyone there is extremely friendly...and "good looking"
