So why do you want to go into Internal Medicine?

Well, if my step score was a bit higher, I would consider derm or ophto...granted I got 1% higher than passing, that doesn't leave me with much options now does it :rolleyes:

So why are you applying to our program?

Well, if I may be candid, I actually applied to ALL the programs in your state, nothing about your program in particular...I guess this is a good time to ask, what exactly is good about your program?


How do you explain an F on your transcript?

I'm a horrible test taker. I kid you not, I don't even know how I passed step 1? Thankfully there won't be anymore exams after medschool, right? :confused:



What do you do if you are in an ICU setting and your patient goes into immediate cardiac arrest, what steps and measures would you take to prevent further deteroriation of your patient?

Umm, isn't there supposed to be an attending on board? I will just page him right? :confused: wait is this a trick question? are you asking me what drugs I need to give him? :confused: I'm sorry can you please repeat the question?


Why should we accept you into our program?

Considering that half of your interns last year were foreign grads, and I'm an american grad....let me just say "beggers can't be choosers"...


How would you treat a mexican patient who doesnt speak any english?

Yo hablo poquito espanol?

what happens if their gay?!?!

:confused: Yo hablo fabuloso espanol (snaps finger in air)...


Do you have any questions for us?:

1) Yes, if I do overtime, do I get paid extra? NO
2) What's your policy on dating med students? Dating med students is not allwoed...

3) What about dating attendings? (interviewer getting visibly pissed)...
4) ok nurses? :confused:

5) What is the suicide rate among your residents?




please feel free to add your 2 cents to this thread :D

lol very funny!!

How about these?

What are your strengths?
Um, well let me see... I can power nap with the best of them, and I once did a 30 second keg stand. Oh, and I have never been caught shoplifting, and I can curse to make a sailor blush. Oh, you mean related to this job? (silence....)

What are your weaknesses?
I would say my bench press. I can only lift 130% of my weight, so that would be my biggest weakness. I don't really like my calves either.

Whom have you most admired/respected during your medical training?
Martin luther king, jr. He's great. And Jesus. They're both really special. atlernatively, Usama Bin Ladin, he really gets behind what he believes in, lots of commitment.

Do you have anything to say before we finish?
Yeah, I just like to say I love the way your legs look in that skirt, its such a turn on.
