The new sim labs.

What impressed you negatively?

The equipments are old, the lab work requirement is killer, and some of the students I've spoke to were not satisifed with OHSU.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The school is on a slopey hill. You can't walk to the dental school building. You must catch the bus or have a taxi cab drop you off in front of the building.

What are your general comments?

Lousy. My interviewer, the first guy, was very disorganized. He had to flip through my file while he asked me questions. The second interviewer didn't allow me an opportunity at the end of our interview to ask her questions about the dental school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
