Interviews can be scary. Your performance can determine whether you receive a rejection or an acceptance letter to your dream program and school. When it comes to dentistry, the task may seem even more daunting because there aren’t as many resources out there compared to those available for medical interviews. Luckily, Gordon is just as knowledgeable in the dentistry interviews and process, and has a vast wealth of dental related questions. For my Multiple Mini Interview (MMI) preparation, I found that Gordon played an essential role in every aspect: correcting my speech habits, controlling the pace and volume of my voice, structuring my answers, incorporating hand gestures, and overall, communicating more effectively. He is extremely attentive and I have improved drastically since day one. Today, I can better articulate my ideas and these skills prove to be handy beyond the interviews in my everyday interactions. What’s extremely important to note is that Gordon is a professional and knows exactly what kind of feedback and constructive criticism students need. It’s a completely different experience as opposed to practicing with friends and other students as it more closely mimics the real deal and I definitely felt more intimidated. On top of all these traits you would expect in a coach, I am so grateful for Gordon’s understanding and caring nature. He truly wants you to succeed. A few days before my big interview day, I was so anxious and hopeless that I broke down in tears during one of our sessions. Gordon was incredibly patient and empathetic; he comforted me by reminding me that I had made so much progress and was confident I would succeed. At the time, those were the words I so desperately needed to hear. Thank you Gordon, for believing in me from the beginning to the end. I have officially earned my spot in dentistry! So yes, interviews can be scary— but having an experienced, diligent, and supportive coach such as Gordon to guide you every step of the way makes the task a lot less nerve wrecking…and a lot more enjoyable.
