What are your general comments?
The woman (a professor emeritus of cytogenetics) brought up that my dad is a doctor, so that got us up and running...after that is was just a normal conversation about healthcare, stupid chemists, bad HMOs and underpaid nurses.
The 2nd interview in teh small groups was really not an interview at all, but more of a Q&A session - try to sound curious about volunteer opportunities.
