What are your general comments?

Overall, I really enjoyed my interview. A 4th year med student interviewed me and his questions were the most intriguing out of all my interviews so far. The beginning of the morning was a bit draining because you sit in a room for several hours while different people come in and repeat the same thing about Georgetown.
