What are your general comments?

"When I first got in I was kind of a dorky nervous giddy :)-, I joked that I wasn't here to interview for medicine (caused me much grief later thinking about it) and when I'm uncomfortable I make jokes so the first part of the interview was really me relaxing. They ease you into the questions and started with the why do you want to be a doctor. I have to admit that half way through answering I blanked for about 20 secs (felt like mins to me) b/c the gravity of what I was doing hit me like a truck! Luckily I regained my composure and continued, but I felt like a dork for blanking during the why do you want to be a doc! After that point it was smooth sailing very comfortable and I was happy with all my answers. They complimented me on my experiences during the interview and were very positive so that made me feel better :). I was worried I didn't come across as very professional because of my jokes (and even though i can be serious that I hadn't showed it - been more Personality if you know what I mean :). Anyways my worring was in vain b/c I was accepted so i suspect my interview went quite well and it was more me overanalyzing later that got me worried. " Report Response
