The interview was a bit like an interrogation. They kept trying to talk me out of my answers.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
They ask for your hotel info because they send you a care package.
There's no modesty in medicine. The tour guide took the applicants (mostly females) into the men's locker room while they were stripping down to their underwear. Then, they took us into the OPP lab where again everyone was half naked.
