What are your general comments?

"Both interviews were very different. My faculty member interview seemed more like a conversation than an interview, and my interviewer asked a lot of "who are you?" questions. The Admissions Committee interview addressed more of the "why medicine/why UNC" type questions and dealt more with my pre-med background. I don't know that either of my interviewers had looked at my file before I walked in to their offices, but I assume that's something that they'd do before presenting me to the committee. The interview day was kind of short, and there was a lot less clarity to the application process than I have experienced at other interviews." Report Response
