No change 😐

What was the stress level of the interview?

4 out of 10

What are your general comments?

UOP is a very good clinical school for general dentists. I have a background in research and they told me that if I was into research, UOP isn't the best place (although they do have some research). There is an overall culture at UOP that you will become very familiar with when you interview.
