The interviewers want to see that you have a keen interest in continually learning your craft. Because the dental industry is ever-changing, they want to be sure that you have done your homework, are familiar with the various dental organizations that put out great journals and publications in the field, and are looking forward to diving into them while training with the Nova Southeastern University College of Dental Medicine program.

"I am familiar with Dentistry Today and the Journal of the American Dental Association, as I began reading both during my undergraduate program. I also recently subscribed to DentalEconomics.com. It's important to diversify where my news comes from, and I would love some fresh suggestions. What are your favorite places for news on current trends?"

Before your interview, be sure to do some research on dentistry-related newspapers, journals, and publications. Come to your interview prepared to talk about how you will always stay up-to-date on industry trends, breakthroughs, dentistry-related concerns, and more as a student at Nova Southeastern University. If you are already familiar with some of these publications, be sure to talk about that familiarity and how you have already looked into the material. It's also a great idea to ask the interviewers about their favorite ways to stay in touch on dental-related current events. Asking this question in return can make for great dialogue, and you never know what you will learn!
