nothing, it was very laidback. All of the questions on this site were questions that I was asked during the interview.

What are your general comments?

I was interview by two faculty members who were older male doctors and taught a little at the school. Some interviees were interviewed by students and they had more fun experiences. My interviewers read questions off the sheet of paper and the interview was very formal.
