I interviewed in Tallahassee - and am in TWU's program. It's not a bad interview.

What they expect is to see a thought process that shows them you know how to think, reason through things and have some composure in stressful situations. Those are things that can't be taught - or are much more difficult to teach than the hard and cold facts of anesthesia, e.g. Ketamine is not a good idea for induction on patients with increased ICP's.

Know what you can, but realize that you're not going to know the answer to everything. Doesn't mean you shouldn't try to know it - the more you know, the better. Just means there's no way you will know the answer to everything that could potentially be asked. The questions are tailored on the moment, and no, I didn't know the answer to all of mine, by a long shot. What I was able to do is talk through the physiology with my interviewer, and we arrived at the "correct answer" together.

Back to studying for ortho and neuro final today. :)
