The interviewer was very impressive. He was very knowledgeable and well read so we talked about the English literature. We talked about the work he did in his field, as an academic MD as well as a practicing physician and how he tries to incorporate both. I gave me my opinions about his field which I truly respect and luckily very interested in. It was really relaxed. The students were very wonderful and very accomplished.
