What are some ethical interview questions that you have been asked/have heard of that dental schools might ask? How would you answer them?

For example, if someone asked, "If you found someone cheating on a test, what would you do?"

Thanks for all the feedback 🙂

I had to answer a what would I do scenario in which a hypothetical classmate of mine posted inappropriate pictures of/with a patient on their social media. (say they took a picture of the nastiest mouth you've ever seen and then posted it, laughed, and paraded it around Facebook)

I've also had the what would you do if you saw a classmate cheating question.

HIPAA-related essay question for one school. That's it.

If you dont mind, could you share how you responded to those types of questions? Thanks

I had an interviewer ask me to describe an ethical dilemma I'd faced in life and how I handled it. I told the first story that came to mind, which was about when a kid asked for my help cheating on a test my freshman year of college and I said no. My interviewer seemed happy with that answer and I got in.

I was asked how I would react/what I would do if a professor scolded me in front of a patient.
