Please feel free to distribute to other interested individuals. The School of Dental Medicine at Case Western Reserve University is organizing online masterclass-style workshops to help prepare applicants regarding their interviewing skills. These workshops will take place in the month of July at the consensus convenience of the participants. While competitive predental applicants are the primary target of these workshops (regardless if they apply to Case), consideration may be given to other prehealth applicants who have limited resources. At this time, the workshops will focus on traditional interviewing instead of standardized interview/MMI formats. Anyone interested must apply to be selected for participation by completing a form at http://ow.ly/lycot by June 15. This application is necessary to match individuals based on their confidence, communication skills, and prior preparation for interviews; this way, specific learning objectives can be better tailored.
