✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

8 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

This website and googled typical interview questions. I also read over my application and personal statement and explored ASDOH's website to make sure I was familiar with the program and what they do.

What impressed you positively?

The school was amazing! When the dean comes to talk to your group you realize how much thought went into putting the program together.

What impressed you negatively?

I guess this isn't a typical complaint but they always had us doing something so there was never any downtime to chat with the other applicants or mentally prepare yourself for the interview.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That admissions is not in the dental school building! I was the last one to show up but they didn't seem to mind (I even made a joke about it)

What are your general comments?

Honesty just have fun and relax. The questions they give you are very straightforward and if you have prepared/practicing typical interview questions before you should be fine. Some people complained that there interviewers didn't show any emotion, but I was able to get them to smile and laugh which made me feel pretty good!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

We watched quite a few videos and power points, and I think it would be a good idea to give us the links to them so we can watch them in the future.
