See "Most Difficult Question"
See "Most Interesting Question"

What was the most interesting question?

Say you were a doctor, and a patient at a free clinic (staffed with medical students) had a heart condition that was missed, would you testify (as an expert) that they were negligent? What if the clinic were NOT a clinic, per se, but was a screening center staffed with medical students and no attending MD for things like BP. What would your testimony be?

What was the most difficult question?

What are some weakness that you think may cause you trouble as a medical student.
