What are your general comments?
My interviewer was VERY friendly. She made me feel very comfortable, and she just wanted to get to know me. She didn't ask me very difficult questions, but they were very interesting, and they made me think. In addition, the students that gave the tour seemed very happy, and they really seemed to enjoy the school.
💬 Interview Process
What was the most interesting question?
If you were the doctor of a young child whose family was Jahova's Witness (who don't believe in blood transfusions), and the child was brought in with a severe accident requiring a blood transfusion, what would you do?
My Answer: I would talk to the family and explain the situation. Since my patient is the child, I would have to take it upon myself to fight for the child's well-being. While I would try to respect the wishes of the family, I would not be adverse to getting a court order for the blood transfusion.
