What are your general comments?

The day began at 9:00 a.m. with orientation followed by a tour of the medical center and a complimentary lunch. Then there were two 30 minute interviews followed by a quick campus tour. The two interviews are equally weighted. I was interviewed by a 2nd year medical school student and a Ph.D. medical school and undergrad lecturer. The interview with the medical school student went well (she even said so) but the other interview was a disaster. It was awkward and only lasted 15 minutes instead of 30 because he could not think of anything else to ask me and it seemed he wanted to get back to his computer.
