How to best answer an interview question such as ''What do you think about abortion''

<p>Before I did my interviews with medical schools, everyone I talked to just told me to pick a stance (didn’t matter which) and stick to it. Basically, I was told that I’d be questioned and I’d have to state my opinion. Then the interviewer would try to sway me a little and I, or course, would have to stick to what I said.</p>

<p>This, in fact, did happen. I was questioned on a few controversial topics and the interviewer attempted to sway me. Really all they were doing was seeing if I could make a rationale argument and stick to it.</p>
