What are your general comments?

The MD-PHD students had to get there earlier and stay there later for dinner. They took care of you as an MD-PHD student, which I liked. The student interview was really laid back. The med school interview was pretty low stress as well. My interviewer asked me mostly about my family and background. The PHD interviewers were okay too...they mainly asked about my research.
