What are your general comments?

Phew..well I don't think the interviewer had time to get to know me at all seeing as how he mainly talked the whole time and asked us a few questions in the middle of it all. He was a very nice man with a lot under his belt but he wandered on tangents completely unrelated for 10 minutes at a time! Once we were caught up in a talk about why we should always have something ''on the side'' in case our hands go or dentistry doesn't pan out. I felt like everytime my turn came to say something, it was very rushed and in the important question ''why dentisty'' he even cut me off mid-sentence so I couldn't finish and say what I fully wanted to say! Group interviews are NOT good indicators in terms of evaluation. To tell you the truth after all the years of hard work in High school, college, on the DAT, extracurrics, and applying..to have them dole out a sub-par interview is kind of a rude awakening/slap in the face.
