SDN, UofL Website, ADA website

What impressed you positively?

The Louisville community seemed like one big family. The students had few complaints other than some old equipment and lack of parking. Many schools admit classes that have stronger numbers than UofL's, but they always seem to finish in the top ten of board exam scores. That shows that they really do a good job of teaching. They also offer Zoo Dentistry and Forensic Dentistry courses.

What impressed you negatively?

Some of the equipment was old. There really isn't much parking and there aren't a lot of places to eat in the vicinity of the school. Louisville traffic can also get pretty hectic.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing. It all went very smoothly and previous SDN feedback posters did a good job of describing the experience.

What are your general comments?

The day was really kinda fun. The interviews were low stress and relaxed...no hardball. The presentations and speakers were actually not that boring. Lunch could have been better. Overall, it was a great experience at a great school.
