hi all,

Anyone want to change interview for UIC. Mine is on 3rd Nov, but i want to change it on 2nd Nov due to some important reason.Anyone willing plz send me pm.

Thanks
 
First, I want to say congrats to all who got accepted in UIC. I have interview in same college on 3rd november and this is going to be my first interview in USA. I would like to know what kind of question they ask. Can any one please feed me with some questions, thank you in advance.
 
a lot of people r asking how the interview is conducted.. its a very easy interview. a summary of the interview is as follows

there r no set q for UIC interview ..everyone is asked different q .. its very basic clinical questions that they ask .. and everyone is able to ans them .. they will show u some tooth preps and ask u to evaluate ,...some xray and treatment plan for it .. also read a passage and will ask u what u understand from it ??.. some intruments will be given and u just have to match the nos on it .. u dont need to know abt instruments !!!..not even names... so its very easy .. they basically want to make sure u can read write and understand every aspect of english language!

do not worry
good luck for interview
 
Guys, I need an advice. I got accepted in UIC, UMD NJ, and LLU. Where to go?

It depends on location and your choice, but once one gets into a dental school, the main aspects you want to consider is following:

1. How is the international program overall? Is there a smooth transition into clinics
2. How is the patient exposure?
3. How well the school prepares the students for Boards (i.e. NERBs)?
4. Last but not least, cost, living area, etc.

I dont know about other schools but here is the info about UIC

1. The international program is very good, there is a smooth transition into clinic (since they take 30 students, there is not a strictly separate international class, but it is not bad)
2. UIC is in downtown chicago, so there is a decent patient pool, there is space in clinics, but for sure there is always competition to get good patients.
3. UIC does an excellent job at preparing for NERBs (I have heard that few dental schools that administered the Endo/Pros Nerb had about 70-75% passing rate, at UIC i believe from initial estimates we have about 85-90% passing rate on the manikin portion of NERBs, this is just my guess not an official number)
4. There are decent apartments but cost of living and school cost are high

Hope this helps
