What are your general comments?

"i definitely learned some interesting facts about the school and the program, interview was mostly based on a AMCAS file (the interviewer pondered it in detail right before my eyes-unfortunately this left little time for eye contact as he made notes on response as well-this was a bit distracting so I kept my response precise and to the point), and I really appreciated my interviewers thoroughness in learning about my application, though I was expecting a more free flowing conversational approach" Report Response
