[Argesto28]

Does anyone know when they usually send interview iv after sending completion email? Thx

 

[xsdf]

I believe within a week. I got the completion email on 21st March but haven't heard anything after that. So I guess I'm not gonna receive any invite now.

Lol, Then I'm not gonna get one either, cause today is been a week after I received my completion email.

 

[smahmood]

anyone else we know about who got calls? Surely, it can't be just one person. Any1?
Still holding out hope for a miracle call

 

[Jen shah]

I got completion email on 20 March and still no update on status....does this indicate rejection?

Congratulations. I think it's very easy, just questions about yourself and your experiences. That's what I have heard from everyone. Good Luck and let me know how was it.

I did Evaluation on ece.org. In our country I think most common GPA 3, but not sure.

 

[Sdr2016]

Wow! Congratulations to all who have got interviews.
That's pretty quick reply from a dental school!!

 

[bullmood]

here in bulgaria we are with different grading system from 2-6 and dont know how to calculate my gpa

 

[K_DENTIST]

In Russia, we also have a different system, but here in US there are only 2 organizations which are suitable for dental schools. Some ask wes.org, the other ones ask ece.org so there is no other options and you need to send them paper in order to obtain the score

 

[Argesto28]

Oh sure.
Both boards 1st attempt
Toefl 104

Almost 4 years working as DA in the US.

Thanks in advance!

You need to send your transcripts to ECE or WES for evaluation. I choose ECE bcs I needed it anyways in order to take the boards. Some say WES give you higher GPA, but I have no idea. I only did ECE. Go to ECE website, look for your country and they will tell you exactly what you need to send.
Also I think it depends on what courses your home country program and how much credits they give to the classes you took.

This was quite easy interview, just ask common Qs like why are you become a dentist, you strengths/weakness, work and volunteering experience. This is closed panel interview, around 20 min, very relaxed

[Jen shah]

Have there been any interview invites lately?

 

[nadent]

Got an interview invite this week. Completion date was May 1. Scheduled for June 11. My friend who interviewed with them 2 years ago said two faculty members were there during the interview session. But a previous member on this thread said there was only 1 faculty. Any other person who is done with their interview this year and can shed more light on this?

I interviewed and it was two faculty members.
