What are your general comments?
I did not have a good rapport with my first interviewer. She had not read any information on me even though my personal statement and some biographical information was provided, so she asked general questions like "tell me about yourself" and "why do you want to be a doctor." My second interviewer asked a lot of tough questions based on my personal statement. We went back and forth for awhile, but overall, I think that I was able to express myself clearly and positively.
