What are your general comments?

The doctor I interviewed with was difficult to understand (he had a thick indian accent). Also, he didn't quite seem to understand what I said to him. Otherwise it was low pressure and I wasn't asked any tough questions that I was expecting (like about the health care system, etc.). Student interviewer was very sweet and friendly.
