So I just got a wait list notification from AZCOM and (almost simultaneously) another ii, this time from Nova. I'd love to go to NOVA so really want to nail this interview, as well as figure out what may have went wrong at AZCOM.
I believe my interview went well, but I'm wondering if I was TOO passionate about medicine. I said a few things along the lines below...
-Medicine is the only thing I can see myself doing; the opportunity to provide care for those who are most vulnerable is what I am truly passionate about.
-Frankly, I don't care about money or status (I'm leaving a lucrative career as interviewers are aware) to pursue this dream. This is the only thing that gives my life purpose and meaning.
-Becoming a doctor is the most important thing in my life - I'm going to do everything in my power to make sure I am able to be the best I can be.
The above is all 100% truth...but did I "oversell" it and come across as phony?
