What are your general comments?

This is an outstanding institution to receive a medical education. I know they always say this, but SERIOUSLY take my advice when I say DON'T stress out about the interview, it is the BEST interview experience you will ever have, like fun, almost. They really just want to see that you are an individual that can communicat their thoughts in a somewhat articulate manner. Don't worry so much about WHAT you will say, just understand that they really just want to see the person that exists behind the application. You have achieved ALOT by getting this interview in the first place, obviously you have the credentials to attend this school, they just want to get to know you, they're not trying to grill you at all.
