What are your general comments?

"My interview was very stressful and I don't think it went well. My one-on-one interviewer was an MD who grilled me with some tough questions. The 30-minute group interview was very short - since there were 3 of us, it was essentially a 10-minute interview, and I didn't feel like they got to know me very well. The group interviewers seemed to make up their mind right away that they liked one of the interviewees best and directed most of their questions at him for the entire interview." Report Response
