What are your general comments?

Started off with usual presentations in beginning: intro and financial aid stuff. Interview was with a pediatrician. I was not grilled or put under excessive pressure. The first part of the interview focused on my experiences and stuff (closed file), second part was ethical questions and stuff. I finished off with a discussion about advances in patient care. Overall a fun experience.
