The greater your academic performance, the better the university's metrics will be. For this reason, your admissions interviewers are looking to select those students who they feel have the greatest likelihood of success. So they'll evaluate your approach for its sustainability and reliability. They will choose dental school students who are diligent in their studies, have a track record for success, and are less likely to burn out on their studies. Walk your interviewers through your systems approach with as much detail as possible, and pair it with how you strike a balance and prevent yourself from burning out. That will show you have your eye on the big picture and can sustain the long game.

"I am a well-organized student and have created a plan that works well for me. When I prepare for a specific exam, I will map out the content I need to learn and divide that content over the number of days I have available to prepare. When I create a study calendar, I leave the final three days leading up to the exam to review the entire library of content. I am a big fan of study aids, as I believe they work much better than simply reading and re-reading the materials. Aids such as flashcards are also much more helpful to me than highlighting my notes. I also create practice problems and, when possible, will pair up with fellow students to test each other in written form or verbal lightning rounds. My approach has been successful, as reflected in my overall GPA."
