What impressed you positively?

Pretty much everyone liked it there. It was a very low-key interview; essentially it was a recruitment day.

What impressed you negatively?

EVERYONE said they liked it, for the same reasons. It started to get tiresome.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

UOP is a very good clinical school for general dentists. I have a background in research and they told me that if I was into research, UOP isn't the best place (although they do have some research). There is an overall culture at UOP that you will become very familiar with when you interview.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
