What are your general comments?

"Lunch, tour, and people were absolutely fantastic. However, the interview was nerve-wracking and I felt as though there wasn't anything I could have said to improve their impression of my shadowing experience. I have spent a considerable amount of time voluteering at the dental school, but they didn't seem as though they felt it was relevent. Otherwise, the interview went as well as it could have with me being so unnerved." Report Response
