How did you prepare for the interview?

This was my third interview so I mostly just noted down specific things I really like about Touro and its program so I can answer the why touro question well.

What impressed you positively?

My interviewer was really kind and conversational. She made the interview really chill and I didn't feel nervous during it at all.

What impressed you negatively?

They don't give any presentations like other schools. It was divided in two parts: a student Q&A and interview. The negative part is that the dental student for the Q&A was only a second-year so she didn't really know the answers to most questions we had on the clinical side of the school. Otherwise she's also really friendly and awesome!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

Touro seems to be on top of incorporating the most modern technology in pre-clinicals and clinical, so that's awesome.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Would be nice to include a presentation on Touro's curriculum or community service involvement.
