interviews

I was in your same situation 3 years ago. I had a choice from all 3 Texas schools. After all three of the interviews my #1 was Houston. Houston by far gave the best interview. It was an all day interview that was set up like a seminar for incoming dental students. It was unique. As far as facilities, I thought San Antonio had the best followed by Baylor in a close second. After talking to students at each school, I thought baylor had by far the best atmosphere. So, after all of this I was still not sure where to go because all the schools had advantages. I then decided to ask different dentist (like 6) graduating from all 3 of the schools on where I should go. Baylor was by far #1 followed by UTSA and none of them said the would go to UT-H if they had the choice. Therefore, I am at baylor. But you have to come up with your own reasons for which school you want to attend. Also, If you are interviewing this early then you are in at both schools

 

My tip for interviewing at baylor and the other schools is to be laid back and be yourself. Know why you want to be a dentist and try to read up on the future of dentistry because I was asked a question like this at one of my interviews. Also, be ready to defend why your overall gpa is low. Don't give excuses but tell them how you might have done things different to raise your gpa. Also, I think baylor favors acceptance to people who have family members who attended here because it seems like there are a lot of people in my class whose father or brother attended baylor. Well good luck and let me know if I can help anymore. Also, If you are interviewing this early in september then you have a great chance of getting in. Go bears!!! I graduated from BU in '97

 

Can you please tell me how soon you got interview request after Case Western received your application from AADSAS ?
