What are your general comments?
This nice older man, who used to be the Dean for all of Georgetown, comes to get me, and we sit and chat for a while. No stress at all. He was just trying to find out who I am and what I'm about. He finished the interview telling me to tell my parents that they did a good job raising me, and that I'd be a good fit for Georgetown.

What impressed you positively?
Every single thing. The intro to the school--Mrs. Sullivan made such an honest and strong statement about what Georgetown is all about, the facilities, the surrounding area, the students, my interviewer--probably the nicest man I've ever met, besides that he's got an MD, law degree, multiple PhD's, he's a Priest, and he used to be a military officer
What impressed you negatively?
It was about 5 degrees outside, but cry me a river, it's January. Toughen up a little.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
All the negative feedback on this site about Georgetown was way off base. I came in trying to have an open mind, but definitely ready to be unimpressed b/c of all the bashing on this site. The school was sweet, and the group that I interviewed with was the nicest/coolest group of interviewies I've seen so far. I could not have been more impressed with any aspect of the school.
