"How students in the halls stopped and spoke to us about how they were nervous on their interviews as well so reassurance not to worry about it and how happy they are at the school now, but also how extremely hard you have to study/work to succeed in school. You cannot slack off." Report Response
"Nothing really, I've been to several dental schools and the building itself looked just the same or better than those at UCLA, Indiana, or UIC, so the premises are fine." Report Response
"Nothing suprising, really. The short trek from the Metra to the actual Dental School is a 5 minute walk, plus students were adamantly opposed to living away from campus, I wish I had known that so I knew to stay at a hotel on campus and check out the scene better there. I stayed at a hotel in Alexandria. " Report Response
"After I was interviewed by a 4th Year and a Dean, I was pretty confident I did well, because I was so relaxed, smiled, and had a good time. Everyone has the numbers and you have to set yourself apart with your personality, because if you're timid and shy this is probably now the field to be in. You also can't be cocky or arrogant so do a self-check before you go; just be yourself, have fun, enjoy the day, and meeting all the other students. You're there to find a good match as well so have questions ready. " Report Response
