AEGD University of Rochester Interview for 2011

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Hi RKD, are you on the Nov 9th batch? Im also there. The interview process is about 1h long, including waiting time, and can be cut short or extended depending on the interview. Early morning means more ppl waiting outside and it depends on the interest the interviewer has on knowing you a little bit more. Id schedule a 2h interview, then arrange for transport back home. see you on the 9th! Remember, save the best for last, heheh j/k

Hi!

All of the friends who have been called for the interview, please update your interview experience. It's of great help.

Thanks
 
The day i went for interview there was almost 25 candidates there.Interview was taken by Dr Yunker and Dr Malmstorm.Both of the doctors were very nice.They will take about 15 mins for each candidate.Just be yourself thats it.No theory related questions.The residents were very friendly and nice.🙂
 
x) Called Dr.Malstrom to thank him personally for accomodating me at the interview and making this experience so comfortable. Asked him about next year if there is any stipend...he said he is not sure usually there is no tution(not sure about that either for next year) nor stipend for international dentists.

x) Informed the faculty to resident ration on the floor is 6:1.

x) About the research, residents have to come up with their own proposals....work with the mentors to get them approved....do the clinical work and than statistics.

x) There is no increase in the number of the residents even after setting up the new emergency setup at Eastman.

x) There are no minimal requirements to get the certificate but u have to perform all kind of procedures.

x) Chances of getting into the other PG programs increases significantly.
 
The final countdown started... good luck to everyone... for me this is the best program one can apply and, if accepted, one you will really enjoy!!!

God Bless 👍
 
Any body hear any thing from them ? when they will start sending the acceptance:laugh: or the rejection🙁 any news?:scared:
 
Nothing yet....did anybody tried calling ....I was going thru the yesteryears posts/threads people into the three year program got acceptance as early as december in 2009 but last year the decisions were made pretty late.
Is it late enough to start calling the co-ordinator?
What u all say?

I think it's still early.
They said the final decisions would be made late January or early February. This time could be taking them more time because there were more interviews I beleive.

6 days x 15-20 candidates/day = b/w 100-120 altogether.
 
I am inclined to think thats it. There were lots of applicants this year and they vary on the response time for acceptance/rejection. Lets not get impatient until January 31st, hehe
 
Oki, lets keep in touch through SDN if anybody gets a call o letter.... Keep up the good faith🙂🙂🙂

Hey Xander25, have you heard anything from the doctors about the process?
 
So if I read this right the US CAN candidates need wait the MATCH day which is JAN 31st. Which means NO INFORMATION AVAILABLE prior to this date. So lets wait and see!! That date is imprinted in my brain, it haunts me now... :S
