💬 Interview Questions
What was the most interesting question?
Why do you suppose the amount of time a patient spends with a doctor is so brief...because of the doctor or the hospital?
What was the most difficult question?
Nothing all that difficult from the student interviewer...just a few ethical questions...just pick a side and don't change your mind. The faculty interview was extremely relaxed. Just shot the breeze for about a half an hour...no medically related questions.
