The interviews is a pretty laid back one...

What are your general comments?

Fly a day before the interview, attend the info session at night, stayed with host. The interview n info session starts around 12:30, so u have plenty of time to dress up and do yadi yada. My interview is in late session. One with MD/PhD and the other is PhD. The PhD guy keeps pounding back to my verbal score, but he doesn't ask me anything specific about medical field. The other guy asks a lot and he seems pretty contended with my answer. Finish around 4:15. Change clothes and shuttle picks up to airport. Very organized day!!
