"Overall I have no idea how my interviews went. The first guy I interviewed with was a PA (not an MD) who constantly "changed gears" throughout the interview. We starting out talking about my current work in research and then changed gears to delve into my family history - and I mean DELVE. He wanted specifics on where everyone went to school, what they were doing now, how long each of my grandparents have been dead...it was really alarming and I kept thinking "can he really be asking all this" and "why does he want to know all this". And then he proceeded to ask me what I though my role in my family was and why and weird stuff like that. And then we changed gears several more times, but not once did we talk about anything I had done in college - he said that was all covered in my application and he wanted to know about me before college and about my current work. So that interview was weird. The second interview was with an older lady and once again we barely discussed anything in my application other than how I improved my MCAT score and what research I was doing. The rest of the time was spent talking about random other stuff including my family once again, except this time it was more general/basic info unlike the first guy. We talked about photography for a while because I said my younger brother is studying it in school. The weirdest part of this interview was when she asked me if I knew the definition of 'mesmerized' since I had used it in one of my essays. The third interview is with a student and my student interview was fine. She asked questions about my application as well as giving me her impression of the school and stuff like that. At the end of the day I enjoyed interacting with the students during lunch and the student interview, but my interaction with the two faculty members as well as with the deans left me with a negative vibe about the school in general."
