What are your general comments?

I had good time during the interview. They didn't even ask why I want to go for DO, but I answered it anyway. I heard some interviewers ask tough questions just to see how you handle the stress, but that did not happen with me. Overall I prepared well and the interview was very laid back, I did not even feel like it's interview. But that's just me. Generally speaking our group had good day during the interview and school tour etc. People were friendly, the school was attractive.
