Now I'm a senior in college and the next 2 years I will earn my MBA in Health Systems Administration, then after the program will hopefully going to medical school.

I was curious to anybody who has an MBA and has already gone through some interviews---what kind of response did you get? Positive, Negative, mixed? Was it discussed much? Did they want to know why you got it? etc...

All of the above. I think it's been a positive overall, but I've gotten reactions like, "That's great...it'll be a great complement to an MD," or, at the other end of the spectrum, "So basically, you don't really know what you want to do with your life." Some interviewers didn't seem to care that much and wanted to talk more about my undergraduate experiences/grades. Bottom line, I think it largely depends on how you address it in your personal statement (which you will need to do), and also what the backgrounds and biases of your interviewers are.
