    It’s pretty interesting, when I interviewed at Usyd they didn’t even ask any personal questions. It was basically all scenario or issues type questions. No teamwork or why med or role play.

      Not 100% sure, but so far I've really enjoyed neurology, respiratory medicine, and infectious diseases!
