What are your general comments?

There weren't really any questions, per se. We just had a directed conversation. The intervewer knew my AMCAS inside and out and wasn't afraid to touch on anything. I didn't handle the format well; although, in retrospect, it was much more enjoyable than a full-on interview. Remember to be calm and don't fall for the 15sec. pause following your answer. Just say what you mean and be confident, yet respectful.
