How did you prepare for the interview?

Re-read my statement from the secondary.

What impressed you positively?

The admissions staff was EXTREMELY honest with everything about their school, financial aid, and medicine today. Mrs. Sullivan keeps an eye on this very site to see student feedback. Hi, Mrs. Sullivan!

What impressed you negatively?

Maybe instead of viewing studentdoctor.net, they should just have us to eval forms. And I would have liked to be in a different room than the so-called "fishbowl," but neither of these was a big deal.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Georgetown's US News & World Report ranking really should be higher. The school has remodeled some of the facilities and the students really are pretty cool. (They were dragging a keg around when we were touring.)

What are your general comments?

Very low-stress interview with someone who had been with the school for years. I think he formed his opinion of me from my file, before ever seeing me. Luckily, I think it was positive. We just talked for a little while and he gave me his eval to give back to the office. Felt a little awkward because I would say something and then there would be a pause while he came up with a new question. It wasn't as conversational as I would have liked, but it gave me time to collect myself. I had a really pleasant time.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
