What are your general comments?

"I can't specifically remember the questions, but they were all medical/bioethics questions. And my interviewer GRILLED me. I was completely caught off guard since it was only my second interview at what a prick my student interviewer was. He was stoic, expressionless, and completely impossible to develop any type of connection with. He also was really full of himself, which he should not have been because I was NOT impressed. The phone rang at least 4 or 5 times, which the lady who gave the first talk said if that happened we can reschedule but I did not want to dish out another $400 to fly from Cali to D.C."
