Hey!

I've searched around some threads on the forum but I've got two main questions:

1) I have an interview at Indiana during the 2nd week of February. Does anyone know (or wanna guess) if most of the class is full by now or if i still have a good shot?

2) Im wondering what other girls have been wearing to interviews..this is my first and I really wanna make it a good one! I am debating between skirt (high waisted) or dress pants, heels or flats, blazer or just a nice blouse.

Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!

You'll definitely want a blazer with a nice blouse underneath. You can do either skirt or pants, I personally feel like it's a little cold for a skirt, so I'd go with pants, but whichever you're comfortable with is fine. And for heels vs. flats, go with whatever you're more comfortable in... when I was at Indiana they had us go up and down staircases rather than use the elevator (I'm not sure if this is true for every tour group, so be prepared for a good bit of walking).
 
Congrats! I had an interview there recently and was told very few spots (between 10 and 15) remain. Best of luck to you!
 
Hey Pelikanz! I hope your interview went well. Have you heard back yet or did they give you an approximate idea of when you should be hearing back? Howd it go over all? Any tips about the day/interview u could share? 🙂

Thanks! The interview went real well. They said around March 1st is when we should expect to hear back regarding acceptances, waitlist, etc. The interview was pretty laid back, but they do ask you a lot of questions. I would suggested googling "SDN interview" and selecting dental schools, then Indiana to look at some of the questions that were asked. For sure know "why dentistry" and be able to tell a bit about yourself. All in all, don't worry. You will do fine! If you have any other questions let me know
 
Was there a small group of ppl interviewing that day or were you the only interviewee? Also was it a one-on-one interview?

Multiple groups of around 5-7 students. The interview is with 2 faculty members and either a D3 or D4. Good luck!
 
Thank you for the info! I have mine Feb 16th 🙂
