What are your general comments?

It was like everyone elses on SDN, but i was interviewing for a BS/MD program. I had my fac. int. in the city. My interviewer was late 15 mins. I am thinking he was in a hurry bc he only asked me 2 questions. I was surprised when his second question was do u have any questions for me? Now came the improv. I had to incorporate my statements into what i was asking and what he was saying (such as y i want to become a doctor, why drexel, etc.)
