What impressed you positively?

Great location (right in the heart of georgetown), sounds like students get hands on clinical training.

What impressed you negatively?

Facilities were a little old. Interviewer was a complete jerk (interupted me every five seconds and scoffed at everything I said). The staff overall seemed very phony (trying to sell their "cura personalis" which is a fancy word for what every medical school tries to do already). Students who gave us tour said that they only went to GT because it was the only school they got into.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The students didn't seem all that happy (only met like 5 though).

What are your general comments?

The interview itself went badly. My interviewer refused to let me talk. He got even more antagonistic when he asked me if I applied to Johns Hopkins (which is answered yes) and he further berated me. The admissions talk is overly dramatic and phony; they sounded like a bunch of used car salesman.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

No responses
