⭐ Overall Impressions

How did the interview impress you?

Positively 🙂

What was the stress level of the interview?

2 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress

What are your general comments?

The interviews were more conversational than I had anticipated. The first interviewer did not ask any of your standared "why medicine" questions. The interviewer allowed me to more-or-less select the topic and pace our conversation. The lack of straight-forward questioning gave me the impression that my interviewer had reached some sort of a decision about me prior to the interview.
