What happens if the whiskers aren't the same length, but the median is in the middle of the box?

Is it skewed or symmetric?

Depends on how big the difference is in the length of whiskers, but I would assume that for most cases that would be a symmetrical distribution of data.

You know that you can use the word "slightly" if you wish. :)
