Positively 🙂

1 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress

What are your general comments?

I fortunately had a good inerviewer. He asked me things about myself, what high school I went to (I actually went to a jesuit school in DC, so we talked about that for a little while), how I chose my undergrad, and what I do for fun. The interview was so chill. I had a really good time.
💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

TEll me about yourself growing up.

What was the most interesting question?

NOthing really. Since it was a closed file interview, he asked questions to get to know me as a person.

How did you prepare for the interview?

Looked at website, SDN, read up on healthcare stuff

What was the most difficult question?

What will be the biggest problem facing physicians in the future.

What impressed you positively?

Huge focus on clinical skills. How right when I walked in, an associate Dean immeidately knew who I was. Frankness of Mrs. Sullivan. She says what G'town is all about. Also like how the staff wants the us to make the right decisions about med school.

What impressed you negatively?

Cost. Also, we were a relatively large group (12 people at least), so asking the tour guides questions was difficult. Also, the tour seemed kind of rushed. It felt like only half an hour and we honestly didn't get to see much except the tunnel system.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Bring an umbrella! That parking all day in the Leavy Center would cost me $25 (dead serious).
