What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Tell me about the most interesting research that you've done.
Why do you want to be a doctor?
Why Yale?

What was the most interesting question?

One of my interviewers, a psychiatrist, had two pages of notes about things I had written in my AMCAS and 2ndary. As soon as I sat down he explained the format of the interview, which had flexible time limits set for each set of questions. This was a bit intimidating at first, but his background and in-depth dissection of my personal statement led to an extremely interesting and insightful interview.

What was the most difficult question?

What challenges do you think that you will face as a physician personally? What challenges do you forsee with medicine in general?
