3 out of 10

What are your general comments?

It seemed like i was being tested with the difficult questions asked by dr. miller...also, he really asks a lot of questions about your family upbringing...so be ready! When you prepare for this interview...expect the "why drew" question, but also be prepared for tough questions too like why there might be inadequacies in your application.
