What was the most interesting question?

Other than the standard medical school questions, I was asked to give insight about an ethical concern facing the future of medicine. He did not ask me to speak about my stance on the issue, but to discuss all sides that were relavant.

What are your general comments?

I was really impressed by this school overall. My interviewer was very friendly and made it a point to tell me in the beginning that this was a low stress, informal interview and he just really wanted to get to know me. I really like this school, and I like how we'll know whether we've been admitted, deferred or rejected in a couple of weeks...
