What was the most interesting question?

Only one interesting question. All others were the generic questions you hear all the time. Some people were asked about their favourite color... but I was asked about the price of a pint of beer in England.

What was the most difficult question?

Tell me about yourself. (this is right after I sat down). I blabbed for about 5 minuutes, then asked if he'd like me to take my autobiographical escapade any particular direction. After a few moments thought, he suggested I focus on 'things that will help me get into medical school.' So I blabbed somemore, until we finally went off on a tangent. Thing were good from there, but I would suggest you be prepared with a plan if they just ask you to sit down and start talking.

What are your general comments?

Loved UF, but I already knew that. It followed a basic format of 1hr intro, 1hr lunch, then 2x 1hr interviews, and 2x 1hr tours. However, the tours and interviews last more like 30-45 minutes.
