What was the most interesting question?

Let's say you lived in a small town and you had a patient who regularly disregarded your treatment plan and observed this patient doing such in the community. For example, you have a patient that you see consuming an excessive amount of unhealthy foods on a regular basis. How would you feel about that patient and how would you feel about yourself as a physician?

What was the most difficult question?

From your volunteer, shadowing, and personal experiences in the medical field, what is one good thing you have observed, and what is one bad thing you have observed? Also, not too difficult but they asked: if you and I(the interviewer) were on a team and I was not contributing to the project and you were doing all of the work? How would you handle the situation?

How did you prepare for the interview?

I spoke with a current student about the process and what to expect. Then I reviewed my application and practiced stating my "why medicine" and "tell me about yourself." I reviewed SDN and made bullet points for the questions. I did not practice other than bullet points so I wouldn't sound scripted.
