2020 entry interview experience/questions I received via PM. Thank you very much for sending them through
doggy! If anyone else that interviewed at CSU has anything to add, please do so
There were 3 interviews running simultaneously and you were being interviewed by 3 interviewers. There was a HUGE focus on rural and indigenous questions and below I have written down the questions that were asked me (they aren't the exact wording but along the same lines). The interview went for about 30 minutes. Hopefully, this helps future students
How much do you know about the health inequality between rural and urban areas?
Have you experienced/lived in a rural area?
After graduating from dentistry at CSU, what can you do to help diminish the health gap for rural and regional areas?
How would you define what a regional area is?
What communities within the regional/rural areas are more vulnerable?
What is empathy? How important is it for a dentist to have empathy and what is the difference between empathy and sympathy.
Scenario type questions : 3 options, pick 1 option and explain (4 minutes to answer)
Option 1: Dude selling past exam papers, kid in your class cannot afford it and is struggling what do you do
Option 2: Someone not being able to afford a certain dental procedure. What do you do
Option 3: I forgot
