[seekadvice]

For those who got interviews at NOVA or I guess even if you just filled out the secondary. I always get weary on whether or not to answer the question "Describe any special circumstances that may help aid the Admissions Committee in their decision" -- would I just describe if I had any events that would have caused a dip in my grades? Or describe an event where I was like "I really want to do dentistry now!"? It's not a requirement to answer so I'm always iffy about it.

If it helps your decision at all, I did not fill that question out for any of my apps. It seems to be a common last interview question at some schools, however.

I was reading the guidebook and Nova accepted 59 students OOS while interviewing 29. Does that mean you can get interview without acceptance? Also why are there so little OOS interview at NOVA?

It's a typo, Nova actually interviews A LOT of people... According to the 2009 ASDA Booklet, they accept/interview: 1/22 people which is more than NYU and Midwestern.
