“A patient comes to you for a second opinion, shows you a poorly fitting crown, and asks you directly, 'Did my last dentist commit malpractice?' How do you respond?”
The same view applicants see after a Confetto mock: rubric scores, your own answer improved line by line, video coaching, and exact next steps before the real interview.

FrequentlyAsked Questions
Everything you need to know about Confetto, answered in one place.
AADSAS opens in May. Interviews run September to February. First offers go out in December. Most applicants start practicing as soon as they apply, so they're ready when the invite comes.
It depends on the program: mMI, traditional one-on-one or panel. Confetto lets you practice each of them out loud, with follow-up questions and a score after every answer.
Why dentistry, what you learned shadowing, how you have shown manual dexterity, an ethics scenario (a patient asking for a cosmetic procedure they don't need, a colleague's substandard work), teamwork, and why this school.
Give a personal, dentistry-specific reason: a moment from shadowing or your own care that made dentistry, not medicine or another field, the right fit. "I want to help people" and "I like working with my hands" are what everyone says.
Most are 20 to 45 minute conversations with one to four interviewers. A few schools use an MMI (Michigan, ATSU-ASDOH, Alberta, Saskatchewan, McGill), and NYU, Columbia, Minnesota and others start with a recorded Kira video assessment.
No. Feedback never expects clinical dental knowledge. It looks at your patient care, ethics, communication and motivation.
Yes. Add any question you've heard a school asks, as many as you like, and practice it with the same follow-ups and feedback as the built-in questions.
After signing up, Confetto places you in a video call with an AI interviewer that asks follow-ups and probes your answers just like a real admissions committee member. Afterward, you receive a report card broken down by category: content (what you said), delivery, and visual analysis of your professionalism, posture, tone, and more—all extracted from your video.
