What are your general comments?

"I interviewed with two D.O.'s on the faculty who were both very attentive and worked well together. Neither of them was harsh or detached, and we did an awful lot of laughing! The questions come straight off of a scoring sheet, and they have all of your numbers in front of them. It is really just a "get to know you" session, more so than a "do you really belong here" kind of thing. Relax, and have fun! That's all the two guys who interviewed me wanted from me."
