What are your general comments?
The interview went pretty good. First professor who interviewed me graduated BU and knew Boston very well. We talked about Red Socks, Fenway, and Boston. He is working on the same research I did recently, so he asked me what I know about that. Second lady was a DO and she asked me the usual questions, like why DO, why UNECOM, etc. They both suggested that I look into MPH and PhD programs because of my extensive science and research background I think. I still have no idea what MPH do and why will I need it.
The students were very nice and helpful too.
