What are your general comments?

Overall, the interview day was a great experience. Dr. Hinkley is very humorous and his administrative assistants are great. The medical students seemed to really enjoy the program and most of all they seemed to be a part of a team. The interview was conversational but after the second question, I realized that my interviewer had not read much of my application file. I was a little disappointed but this gave me some feeling of control over the interview.
