I am now finished with my interviews and I would like to share my thoughts with future OMFS applicants.
1. You definitely need to score really well on NBME. I have heard from many programs that this year's average was around 70 and not 54~56. I would say the safe line is no longer 65 but 70.
2. Applicants from big schools such as Harvard, Columbia, UCLA, UCSF, and Penn are landing tons of interviews. I kind of regret that I chose state school over ivy school.
so, If you are really interested in OMFS, attend one of those dental schools and score high on NBME.
