  • Interviews can be really nerve racking. Everything you do says alot, the way you sit, the way you answer questions and the way you interact with the staff. Although this can be anxiety provoking, there are some steps that we can take to ensure that we are well prepared. This includes preparing for common questions that are asked in practically every interview. In this video, I'll breakdown all the common questions they can ask and provide tips on answering each question

    Does talking about a particular illness (febrile seizures) you were diagnosed with in your childhood and completely cured, and subsequent experiences with the neurologist who treated you as a motivation improve my chances of a neurology residency or does exposing an illness even if it is cured make it seem like a red flag and end up jeopardizing my chances instead?
