Why not stay in Cali and go to UCSF, UCLA, or USC?

How did you prepare for the interview?

This was my 4th interview so I didnt worry too much about this one.

What was the most difficult question?

Same questions as everywhere else I interviewed.

What impressed you positively?

The name.

What impressed you negatively?

That the name isn't everything. The facilities are soo old. The students don't seem "Harvard material" and that the school makes you do a research project and wants everyone to do dental research in the future, but rarely do their students stay in research as a career.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The cold and dreary weather. How expensive it is to live in Boston. The cambridge undergraduate campus is in a better location than the medical/dent school.
