So my Pre-med office has asked those of us who had success in this last cycle to help them conduct committee interviews for those who are applying next cycle. This is important as our school, as the results of the interview are compiled into the Committee letter that I'm sure ya'll know are quite important. The format of the interview is 2 on 1, with me and a member of the Pre-Med committee interviewing a Pre-Med with an open file.
My question is what kind of questions I ought to ask. The guy organizing it said "anything goes" for the most part, but I'm not sure how similar to an actual interview I ought to go. The obvious choices are "why medicine" and "tell me about yourself", but the interview is a full hour long so I figure I ought to get a bit more indepth. But at the same time, I don't want to be discouraging to applicants. What do you guys think...ethical questions? What else are some good ideas for questions?
