Dental School Interview Preparation

Depending on the dental school you’re interviewing at, we do both. In case you’re wondering what ‘blind’ and ‘non-blind’ interviews mean - ‘blind’ interviews are those where the interviewer has not seen your entire application before the interview. They have only seen your resume. These interviews are also called closed file interviews. Non-blind interviews are those where your interviewer has access to the entire application. Sometimes, these interviews are called open file interviews.

Please provide us all the documents that are available. Regardless of the interview format, we need as much information as we can get to craft a custom mock interview session for you. Your documents provide us context around your strengths and weaknesses and allow us to ask targeted questions like the ones that you can expect to get from the admissions committee.

Please book mock interviews early. This service usually gets booked very fast, so don’t delay your decision. Please book this service as soon as you know you’ll be interviewing at a particular institution.

It depends on how confident you’re feeling about your preparation. Some candidates prefer doing one mock interview session per dental school whereas some do multiple sessions. We would suggest doing multiple sessions for your dream school since that will give you the opportunity to incorporate feedback from the previous session and finetune your answers.

We will provide feedback right after the interview. We understand that there usually isn’t a lot of time to prepare for interviews, so we want to make sure you have enough time to get better.

We have specialists for each interview format - blind (or closed file) traditional interviews, non-blind (or open file) traditional interviews, panel interviews, group interviews, and multiple mini interviews (MMI). We will prepare you for each format so that you can articulate your case regardless of how much or how little time you have in front of the admissions committee.
