What are your general comments?
It was very laid back. The student ambassadors were great. I actually knew one of them, which was bizarre. They were very informational and helpful. My interviewer was weird, but a very nice guy. He had a PHD in biochemistry and for some strange reason we started talking about cooking, and that tenderizing meat question came up, which, by the way i didn't know how to answer. By the end of the interview, he gave me his e-mail address so that i can send him the answer. Nice guy, though; everything else from the interview was fine. He just asked me basic questions from my file. There were no osteopathic medicine questions and no "why do want to be a do?" question. And ultimately, I did end up sending him an answer.
