"What is one class you like and one you don't like and why?"
"Why MOSDOH?"
"What was your favorite thing of your shadowing experience?"
"What makes a good dentist in your mind?"
"How do you manage stress?"
"What would you do if you found a classmate with an exam key?"
"What would you do if you caught another student cheating?"
"Tell me about your volunteer experience."
"How would you manage going to school, studying, and making time to do the things you love?"
"Why did you participate in so many service opportunities?"
"Tell me about X experience on your application"
"Why dentistry over other careers?"
"What is an example of a time that you observed something unethical in a work situation, and what did you do?"
"What do you think it the purpose of community service?"
"How do you react when something goes wrong or doesn't go your way?"
"If dentistry was not an option at all, what other fields would you choose?"
"Not a question, but they split the interviewees into 2 groups. Each group read instructions to create a public health facility meeting listed goals, then presented it to the other group. The interviewers watched the entire process."
"The friendly environment and the technology"
"How new and technologically advanced the school is"
"Great facilities"
"The building itself and the faculty and the museum tour"
"Relatively new campus."
"Students felt like their opinions and feedback really made a difference in the school since it is so new."
"The external rotations"
"The weather"
"Kirksville is very depressing"
"The emphasis on the tourism aspect of the campus. Also, one of the interviews was done through video call."
"Curriculum. Students described it as 100% one subject at a time. Studied everything about "chemistry" (example) 8hrs a day until completion and then took an exam. Exam schedule is very sporadic because of this due to some subjects being shorter than others. They said that sometimes you could have one exam and then another on a completely new subject 2 days later."
"To relax more."
"Make sure you see if you can visit the school a day in advance since there's a lot of alley roads you might have to take to get there and it's best if you know where you'll be going a head of time"
"The relocation of dental students to St. Louis after the second year."
"3rd year is in St. Louis, 4th year is various rotations throughout Missouri."
"The interview is very laid back, I had an interview with someone, and then another interview with someone via skype. Not a huge fan of having to move to Saint Louis half way through my education (I have a family)"
"Be yourself and let your personality shine!"
"The relocation at 3rd year was a huge factor for not attending the school. It did not seem to be the school for me even though it was closer to home."
