- I'm so happy to see that you guys enjoyed
my last video with my nephews.
I know I had a blast filming it, and so did they.
While I had them here, I decided to give them
the weirdest questions that I received
during my med school and residency interviews.
Are you ready?
- No.
(jazzy music)
- If you had to be a fruit, what fruit would you be and why?
- What's the most uncommon fruit?
I'm not trying to die.
- An orange?
Why would I be an orange?
- A grapefruit.
I don't know, I feel like they're undervalued.
- Do you feel undervalued?
- No.
- I'll be a mango, I guess
- Why?
- I don't know, 'cause they're sweet and they're yummy.
- Is that what you tell all the girls?
- Yeah.
So I'm like, what's up, girl?
And then they're like, what's up?
And yeah.
- And then you just tell 'em you're sweet and yummy?
- Yeah.
- What do they say?
- They're like, okay daddy.
- Whoa!
- I just like grapefruits.
They're valid.
- I guess that's a fair answer.
I can't challenge your answer,
although I don't like it that much.
- What would you prefer me to be?
- I don't prefer you to be anything.
I just wish you said something other than
I'm a fruit because,
I'm this fruit because I like that fruit.
- Orange because they're big, I don't know,
I'm just going with this.
They're big and round and they're squishy,
okay, next question.
- What super power would you want,
and what world problem would you solve with it?
- If you could read minds, that would be pretty cool
and you could, like, if you know how some diagnoses,
it's hard 'cause you don't know what, like,
the patient is feeling,
so if you could like read their mind.
- I'm gonna do with time travel, so going back in time.
- Okay.
- A lot of people make mistakes.
I make mistakes, everybody does.
Even, like, best doctor alive,
or handsome, whatever, makes mistakes.
- You just downgraded me from the best doctor alive
to handsome doctor?
- I'm just saying.
- Crazy athleticism.
You know, being able being able to jump out the gym, dunk.
- You don't wanna go for that help the world thing,
you just wanted to just Lebron it.
If you had to be any candy,
which candy would you be and why?
- Probably, like, the worst candy.
I don't know, Twizzlers maybe.
Not a lot of people eat Twizzlers.
- Maybe Hershey's?
- Which one, the bar?
- Yeah.
- Why?
- Because it's sweet, I'm sweet.
Maybe like the shape.
I know this is weird,
but maybe like the shape because it's, I don't know,
different, I guess.
- The shape of the chocolate bar is different?
- Yeah, it's different from other candies.
- How?
- M & M's.
- Why?
- Because I like them.
I'm just choosing stuff I like.
- I'll just pick a different one, Starburst.
It's different colors.
I could have different personalities,
especially when it's like get from home and school.
Like different flavors, but still one candy,
I guess you could say.
- All right, that was a good one, see?
- I guess Kit Kat.
- Okay, why?
- Because, like you know how,
if you, like break a piece off
'cause like I guess I have multiple
different personalities, you could say.
- So you're multifaceted, like a Kit Kat bar?
What do you think the best part of being a doctor is?
- Saving lives and getting thanked for it.
I feel like it's, like, really awesome
to help prevent someone's death.
- When you can go to the parents and say
he or she is gonna live,
and you could see when like, I'm gonna say,
maybe getting up and going to their loved one's families,
whatever, guardian, parent
and maybe like hugging them
and having those smiles on their faces.
- That is a good feeling.
- I think being able to have a connection
with someone that you trust
and then being able to benefit from that.
- How does a doctor benefit from that?
- That's why they call it practicing medicine.
It's not like, oh, I heal you.
I practice medicine
'cause you're constantly learning new things.
- How do you define the word health?
- What is the best thing for your specific body.
- I think it's like a fact
more of an opinion or perspective.
Work out, have good weight.
You're like normal, not fat, not either skinny too.
So you're like, you're in good shape.
- The balance or homeostasis
of mental, physical, and social health.
- Was it bad?
- Mm-mm.
- One to 10 how bad was it?
- Like, 8.5.
- No, are you exaggerating or are you being honest?
- 8.9, like 10 being amazing, right?
- No, no, how hard was it?
Like how bad did you feel doing this?
- Oh, then like 1.
- So if I asked you this before we started,
what would you have said?
Like if I said, we're gonna shoot this video,
remember how you didn't wanna do it?
- Yeah.
- If I asked you in that moment, one to 10,
how bad do you think it's gonna be,
what would you have said, do you think?
- Probably like an eight.
- So do you know why it's important to do this sometimes?
Because you just did what you just said.
- Because I didn't really know.
I didn't experience this.
- Yeah exactly.
- I didn't know this was gonna happen.
- But you had a fear about it.
- Yeah, and I overcame that fear.
- Bam! Good work.
