What are your general comments?

Both of my interviewers were incredibly nice. The professor was very honest about how much time students spend in class, and how he felt it was a detriment to their medical education. This guy was a therapist and you almost feel compelled to tell him all of your faults. The student interviewer mostly wrote verbatim what I said in response to questions.
