What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Why do you want to be a doctor?

I read interview feedback, reviewed Pitt material and watched Will and Grace the night before.

None of the questions were extremely difficult.

Everyone was friendly. The students, staff, and faculty were trying to sell the school to me. They came across as if they were honored to have me interested in their school rather than vice versa.
