A specific case on abortion- if a woman came up to you and said she was going to self abort if you didn't perform an abortion, what would you do?
What impressed you positively?
the student interviewer's enthusiasm
What impressed you negatively?
My faculty interviewer seemed to have read my file beforehand and decided that she didn't like me. After I gave my response on why medicine, she frankly told me that it wasn't good enough (this was within the first five minutes of the interview). After hinting her opinion that I lied about my activities on my application, she debated with me on abortion, healthcare, and euthanasia for about forty-five minutes. Apparently none of my responses were good at all. Expecting a rejection shortly.
