How did you prepare for the interview?

Mock interviews with someone who has interviewed people before, thought of ways to tie in my application and its strengths into the interview

What impressed you positively?

Beautiful campus, brand new dental school building, great winter weather, and D4s get tons of clinical experience!

What impressed you negatively?

ASDOH is very picky about the kind of applicant they are looking for. It was really hard to get a feel for whether I interviewed well or not.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

What kept me from getting into dental school last year. If I had known then I would have been into school one year earlier.

What are your general comments?

No responses

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Putting the questions in front of the interviewee was really great! I would continue that practice. If there was anything I felt could be improved, it was the few personal questions about the interviewee. I felt the questions were very open ended and non-specific. I think one of the questions I was asked was, "And what of the modular system we have here at ASDOH?". My initial response was, "Well, what about it?"
