Mock Interview Program for the 2022-2023 Application Cycle:
HSDM ASDA’s Pre-Dental Committee is excited to be coordinating our third annual Mock Interview Program that will run through summer and early fall. This program is intended to prepare pre-dental students applying to dental school in the current 2022-2023 cycle for their interviews. Each pre-dental student (interviewee) will be matched to one HSDM student (interviewer), who will conduct your mock interview.
For those pre-dental students not local to the Boston area, interviews will be held virtually on any platform of your choice (Zoom, Facetime, Google Meets, etc.). For those who are closer to Boston and are comfortable with meeting your interviewer face-to-face, we are extending a limited number of in-person interviews this year as well. These interviews will be held within the Longwood Medical Area (location to be determined by you and your interviewer). In-person interviews will be limited by the number of dental student interviewer volunteers, so you may not be selected for this option even if you are interested. However, you will still be considered for the virtual interview, subject to dental student availability as well.
We will notify you if you have been matched by July 15, 2022. You will receive the name and email of your dental student interviewer, and we ask you to then reach out to them to set up a time, ideally from July-October, to meet virtually or in-person (if you are eligible for this second option).
In the past, mock interviews have lasted from 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the interviewer’s schedule. Interviewers may run a bit longer, depending on the interviewer’s selected style.
If you are applying to US dental schools for the 2022-2023 cycle and are interested in this program, please fill out this application form. The application will open on June 17 at 4 PM EST and close on July 1, 2022 at 4 PM EST. https://forms.gle/X5D4LLu9R5NZJGsm6 .

Sincerely,
HSDM ASDA Pre-Dental Committee
