What are your general comments?

The person who interviewed me was a MD who didn't speak English very well. I had a hard time understanding the questions she asked me, and she obviously couldn't understand the answers I was giving her (as she asked me two of the questions multiple times). She abruptly ended the interview after realizing she had asked the same question twice. She wouldn't shake my hand upon entering the interview or leaving. I don't understand why they would have an allopathic doctor interviewing applicants at an osteopathic school, let alone one who doesn't speak English very well.
