What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

have you ever had an opportunity to be the care giver
is there anything in your application you wish you could change
tell me about yourself, your volunteer experience

What was the most interesting question?

Twenty years ago an orhtopedic surgeon wrote an editorial on whether or not physicians should be required to operate on patients with AIDs since at that time, glove punctures were common during orthopedic surgery. Give me both sides of this ongoing ethical debate and tell me which side you would take.

What was the most difficult question?

Trace your life for me and tell me how the "you" of the big picture translates into the "you" of today and how that makes you want to be a doctor.
