What are your general comments?

"Overall the school impressed me, especially how much everyone seemd to enjoy being there with each other, which is a huge plus since this is going to be your life for four years. It really wasn't stressful at all, they just tell you how it is, and it seemed like the students were giving truthful answers and not blowing smoke. Some students passed up some more well known schools to attend Buffalo - I think that says a lot. The essay was simple - what quality do you possess that will make you an effective dentist?
