How did you prepare for the interview?

Had previously attended a few interviews, so used those as practice.

What impressed you positively?

Very nice facilities, staff was very approachable and willing to help.

What impressed you negatively?

Not much, there is no cafeteria or cafe on the campus....but that isn't the worst thing that a dental school could be lacking.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How many interviewees were from BYU.

What are your general comments?

There were two different interviews, one from faculty and one from a 3rd or 4th year student. I thought this was genius. The faculty one was open file and was pretty personal. They really wanted to get to know me which was excellent and referred a lot to my personal statement. The student interview was more to kind of dig a little deeper and see if you really meant business/could hack it in dental school. My experience may have differed with other students since there were 20 of us and 10 different interviewers for each interview.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
