What was the most interesting question?

None. It seemed as though the fact that the interviewer could relate to me in my experiences made it unnecessary for me to finish my sentences (I am not kidding, I am not sure if she was impressed by my accomplishments or the fact that my accomplisments resembled hers).

What was the most difficult question?

''Tell me, what are some of the ethical problems that the health care system of the United states is facing? Please do not mention stem cell research or doctors making their consultations shorter for money purposes, I've already heard these before.
