It is not uncommon for students who pursue a career in the medical field later to discover they aren't up to the task. On their website, Midwestern University proudly advertises that they have a 100% graduation rate. That is an impressive track record and one they are no doubt very focused on preserving. Therefore, your admissions interviewers are looking for assurances you can handle the more squeamish and challenging aspects you'll encounter in your medical career as a student and as a dentist. Assure them of your hardy physical and mental constitution. Keep your answer simple. Share your experience level and other relevant examples to assure them you are cut out for the tasks ahead.

"I have never been a queasy individual, and I fully understand the types of cases I will see in my career as a Dentist. I currently work part-time at our local drop-in shelter and have seen many situations involving blood. I don't think about the gore but more about the fact that it's a human who needs my help. I believe this mentality will get me through any undesirable situation."
