This website, talking to med students at UNC, mock interview with brother-in-law.

What impressed you positively?

How comfortable they made all interviewers feel; I was expecting a more snooty atmosphere!

My second interviewer, and unfortunately, my committee representative. I don't think he had read my application, he did not ask any real questions, and his face was expression-less.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The internal transportation system is awesome!

Dr. Sanderford is a sweetheart. Dr. Perl is nice to, just harder to read.
