Where did the interview take place?

At the school

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read through the BU website and reviewed my applications.

What impressed you positively?

The people were extremely friendly. Also the admissions people stressed the fact that they want people with a personality and not people who look good on paper. I really liked this fact because dentists have to work with patients. The new clinic floor is brand new and extremely nice.

What impressed you negatively?

There is only one building and it seemed packed with people running around. Each of the floors were small and packed with patients and students.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I did not stress over the interview.

What are your general comments?

I enjoyed my time at the interview. Talked to the other eight students about schools and about life in general. The school made the entire time stress free and the food they provided was good. Don't stress about the interview. Throughout the day they get to figure out who you are because they have pictures of each student. So when people are talking, PAY ATTENTION and ASK QUESTIONS.
