I enjoyed the interview and really happy about the program.

8 interviewees, each with 2 interviewers (all attendings, not a single one had an IV with the PD though)

no medical Qs. the usual, like why IM? why US? subspecialty? really relaxed.

What attendings interviewes you? If you are ok can you tell me their name and their speciality, I tried to ask them who will be interviewing me but they said they can't tell before coz all depends on the faculty availability, so just trying to get an idea.
