How did you prepare for the interview?

Attended Open House @ Shands, spoke to dental students, visited G-ville beforehand, and did some research on the dental school's history.

What impressed you positively?

The faculty was extremely positive and supportive. The secretary actually helped calm me down - she hooked me up with some coffee !!! I was bouncing off the walls during the interview ! Also, the school is an extremely spirited one. The Gainesville community is really involved w/ the school's activities.

What impressed you negatively?

The wait...I was the last person interviewed and was sitting impatiently for roughly an hour and change outside the interview room !! This definitely made me start sweating bullets.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing. I was already pretty familiar w/ the school and their objectives.

What are your general comments?

Unbelievable. I made new friends during lunch w/ other interviewees, then had a great interview w/ Dr. Sposetti and Logan.
