What are your general comments?
The faculty interview was an amazing experience. We talked about my life experience and I was allowed to express myself as freely and naturally as possible without the fear of being judged based on my answers. But the student interview was rather unpleasant and intimidating. He did not like some of my answers and he made it very clear to me. I felt like I was expected to say something he liked in order to become qualified to study medicine. The whole interview had no depth and I am pretty sure that he had no idea of my true personality after the interview.
