What are your general comments?

"I wanted to be more detailed than other people had been, so here I go. My interview day began at 8:30AM with a group activity followed by a presentation by the financial aid department and the Army. Then we were assigned to our interviewers. Afterwards, we ate lunch then went on the tour. Next we filled out an evaluation and that's it. The day wrapped up about 1pm. My experience was very good. I left the school with the feeling that I didn't do too well on my interviews because one went good and the other, not so good. It is true that you are your toughest critic because I was accepted. This is my second time applying to dental school and Meharry was the only school to give me an answer in a timely fashion. This is another plus to me!!!!!" Report Response
