Medical students are not expected only to read medical books, and the interviewers understand this. They want to see if you are the type of person to read for pleasure, and if so, what interests you. If you do not enjoy reading during your downtime, describe other ways you stimulate your mind, such as listening to podcasts. Also, if you have read a work of fiction recently, be sure that it would not offend or embarrass the interviewers. If you enjoy reading, describe the most recent work of fiction you have read and give a brief synopsis.

"I recently finished a historical fiction book called 'The Book Thief' by Marcus Zusak. The book was a moving story of resilience in the face of unimaginable hardship. During the Nazi era, a German foster family takes in a young girl because her mother cannot afford to care for her. It was a fabulous book about friendship, love, and loyalty and has even been turned into a movie. I would highly recommend the book to everyone."
"I recently read a book titled Dark Matter. It was an excellent scientific thriller about a physicist who enters a world of inter-dimensional transfer. Though intellectually intrigued by this discovery, the main character finds his loving family to be nonexistent. It is a race to find his family in a multidimensional universe. "
