my interview with Tufts is tomorrow 😱 and because of the program information they sent me (a big fat book), i cannot think of any more questions to ask. that book practically answers every question i can think of (board exam results, specialization rate...) does anyone have any good suggestions on what questions to ask?!
Thanks!!

Don't feel like you have to ask questions for them in order give them the impression that you are intelligent or smart. Most people think that they HAVE to ask questions and it's simply not true. If you feel like you have an accurate idea of what the school is like, then don't ask any questions at all.

I would suggest asking about what the environment is like or what the city is like. Or maybe what the overall opinions of the students are. Pretty much any question that isn't covered by the facts or numbers in the book. Good luck during the interview. 🙂

Agreed. Be confident in yourself. Asking too many questions shows that you haven't already done your homework on the school, or you're just some insecure tool who has to be heard.

Best advice: go in to the interview, be yourself, chill, and display confidence when you're asked a question. It's easy.

I asked maybe two questions total throughout my interview process at 5 schools, I was accepted to all 5.

First, just be yourself.
Ask yourself what you are looking for in a dental school: hot gals, clinical exposure, etc.
Then generate some questions from that list.
For example, I am looking for a school that offers dual degrees program. I asked them about funding/grant resources.

If hot gals is on your priority list, look to see if there is a nearby dental hygiene school/nursing school....or go to the same dental school as BigBottomGirl 👍

Tufts dental shares the library with Tufts nutrition school. That makes Tufts to be one of my top choices. It is all about quality and quantity.
