SDN, read over application, interview feedback

What impressed you positively?

The location of the school and the dvd style curriculum. I say if it does kill you it makes you stronger. With everything being on the computer these days it is better to start early! plus never fear anything tough, it does not matter what school you go to, in dental school everything will be overwhelming and rough in the beginning. Ask questions, work hard, seek help from your faculty and friends, and you will make it.

What impressed you negatively?

The school was kind of old looking but have great sim lab.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How relaxed the interview was

What are your general comments?

The faculty and student I interviewed with were nice. They made you feel relaxed. One note, make sure to look professional and neat :) At the end you have to write an essay, its not too bad. The essay was, What ethical dilemma have you faced and how did you go about resolving it? The essay should be the last of your stress. Its just general questions thats all. Nothing to study and stress over...trust me!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
