SDN, going to other interviews

What impressed you positively?

Nice city, decent parking situation, nice clinics- and you get your own. Extremely cheap tuition (for dental school) and its easy to become a NY resident. Oh, and the anatomy lab was awesome.

What impressed you negatively?

No dress code- students didn't really look/act very professional. School doesn't have a good program to prepare you to run a business.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Despite the fact that I was hoping to love this school, I left with bad vibes from it.

What are your general comments?

Questions were pretty standard. Staff was really nice, gave us water, and a good presentation. I got probably the best look at all aspects of this school of any schools I interviewed at.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

No responses
