What are your general comments?

Although my interviewr bombarded me with ethical questions- each of them were presented within a story which sort of hinted what he was looking for in the answer. Also, the interviewer was very familiar with my application and asked questions about every experinces I mentioned of on the AMCAS and secondary. Over all I feel that the interview was solid, fair, and interesting.
