"I enjoyed the tour of the school. The sim labs were amazing and we got to try using a drill in the sim station on the polymer teeth. All the dental students that we had contact with were incredibly nice and really seemed to like the school and have a good relationship with the faculty. Although the program is not as small as some schools (around 80 kids) it is still a good size and you really get to know everyone!! Also, the results on the national boards are incredible which tells me they do a good job preparing you especially for the difficult florida boards. " Report Response
"The whole bottom floor of the dental school is under construction and there arent many windows in the dental wing of the school due to budget cuts back in the 1970's. But they are renovating and windows are being added in the near future." Report Response
"I really didn't run into any surprises along the way. I would suggest bringing a book or something to read. I had a 9:30 interview (they are short) and had an hour and a half to kill before lunch. " Report Response
"The interview went real well. It was very laid back despite having 3 people interviewing you. Dr. Sposetti is very nice and she pretty much leads the interview. They asked why dentstry? what do you do for fun? are you good with your hands? how does a dentist become successful? asked about my job and research experience (they were very interested in that)! and thats pretty much it. The interview was short (only 20 minutes or so) and the rest of the day was a tour, some socializing with other interviewees, lunch and 2 presentations. Although the school was not verym how do you saym aesthetically pleasing, it had some very good things about it. I really enjoyed the sim lab (the students let us use the drill and see what it is like on the simulator. I wish we could have gone into the clinics but due to HIPAA? laws they wouldnt let us. Hope this helps and good luck " Report Response
