What are your general comments?

One interview by an MD faculty, one by an MS2. Each interview lasted 30 minutes. The format was extremely laid back with the MD, very conversational. The MS2 had a list of questions, but it was still very laid back. He explained to me how he wanted to get as good of a picture of me as he could to present to the adcom, so it would make sense that he wanted to know certain things about me.
