What are your general comments?
The day went well, it is really organized. Normally everyone has 2 interviews, but I was asked to do a third at the end of the day. First interviewer was a PHD in anethesiology with a thick german accent and seemed to not really care about what I had to say. Last two interviews (M3 and Internist) were better as they at least gave some feedback. I was dissapointed that we didnt get to see the hospitals at all.

What is one important human rights issue that comes to mind, just off the top of your head?
What was the most interesting question?
We internists usually get the sickest of the sick and we often have to make life or death dicisions...what would you do if you made the wrong decision and your patient died?
How did you prepare for the interview?
SDN, MCW.edu.
What was the most difficult question?
If a girl (he didnt specify age, which made answering it complicated) came in with her parent complaining of pelvic pain, and you discovered she had contracted an STD and the girl begs you to not tell her mother, would you tell inform the parent? (after I answered yes) Wouldnt you be worried about breaking the trust you have with your patient?
What impressed you positively?
Huge complex, (kind of)new building. Organized interview day. Mike Istwan is a good guy...

HUGE interview group (50+). All M-1 classes are in the same lecture hall. Student who interviewed me was like 30 and seemed disconnected from the world.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
How big the group was going to be...alittle intimidating. Also, its is VERY diverse.
