💬 Interview Process

What was the most interesting question?

I was asked what I would do in a number of stressful situations, one of which related to dentistry and group work and seemed like a good way of testing my character. I felt that these people were truly concerned with finding exactly who in the room would make a good dentist and that was what I liked most about the school. It was very no-nonsense, yet at the same time, the people were down to earth and the facilities were out of this world!

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read the Tufts Dental website and memorized the mission statement and goals of the school.

What was the most difficult question?

What I would do if I knew that someone in the school wasn't pulling their weight fairly on a group project.

What impressed you positively?

I was very impressed with everything about this school. The city is awesome, the facilities are awesome, and the faculty and staff were very willing to help, professional, and just very nice. As nice as they were the entire time, they also seemed genuinely concerned about how good their candidates would be at practicing dentistry. This showed in the interview and made me excited about going here.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing negative happened, which was the only school I interviewed at that I could say that about.
