What is one of the specific questions they asked you (question 2)?

"I wish I would've had more of a chance to talk w/ girl #65!" Report Response | I was asked this question too

What was the most interesting question?

"I’m not sure what that “raisin in the sun” question was all about, but it seems kinda thespian to me." Report Response | I was asked this question too

What was the most difficult question?

"Speaking of ‘raisins’, does anyone remember “Claymation Christmas” w/ the California Raisins??? That used to be my favorite Christmas special, but I haven’t seen it on TV for probably upwards of 10-12 years! I remember they keep trying to sing the “Wassle Song”? " Report Response | I was asked this question too

How did you prepare for the interview?

"I read the Victoria's Secret catalog (okay... it was a Sears catalog)." Report Response

What impressed you positively?

"When asked about the Super Bowl, I don’t think my interviewer was too impressed that I missed the whole 2nd half due to my TiVo mysteriously pausing for 3 hours at the halftime ‘wardrobe malfunction’. " Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"I did notice the disturbing trend of medical students just dropping by lunch simply to ‘stuff their faces’ and refrain from any intelligent or helpful commentary." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"Okay, okay... I already left my feedback, but I just had to comment on feedback #65 (the one before this). Who is this girl??? That feedback was hilarious and just made my day. I actually interviewed on the same day and didn't realize there was an estrogen-gushing, guy-crazy maniac around... she may have even sat by me at lunch! (She may have even let me borrow her Victoria Secret catalog to prepare for my interview.) In all honesty, though, the medical students (male and female) on average were much better looking than the other Pennsylvania schools- Pitt, Jefferson, etc. I can’t say I really noticed any of the guys’ eyelashes, though. Though I’m no Adonis myself, had I known that there would be some heartbroken lovely ladies on the prowl at my interview I would’ve stopped by Kaufmann’s and spritzed on a little ‘Dune’ by Gucci :)" Report Response
