Report Response | I was asked this too

Name five strengths about yourself and then explain each quality. If you were to explain yourself in a nonmedical way to a stranger, how would you do so? Talk about research/travels. What question should I have asked you that I did not? (i.e. what did you expect me to ask you).

What are your general comments?

I had an excellent first interview experience. I was interviewed by a fourth year medical student and then a faculty member. Both were so welcoming and laid-back. I liked touring the Brain Institute and seeing the simulated patient. We had two tours: one of the hospital (by student) and one of the Brain Institute (by staff). All students, faculty, and fellow interviewees were wonderful.
