What is the best way to answer a question in an interview?

Remember to alway take a couple of seconds to first thing about your points and then your structure, before delivering your answer. Always have a maximum of 2-3 points that you can elaborate on and give example to back up your answer and then to make sure you relate it back to medicine in the end. You'll be basically using the Point, Evidence, Explanation framework and this makes sure that your answers are not too long and boring. Also, it proves to the interviewers your ability to communicate clearly and to think through a question instead of answering too quickly.
