why medicine? why GT? why Washington DC?

How did you prepare for the interview?

read the GT website

What impressed you positively?

-the dean lunch was very nice and informative. -the student tour guides were enthusiastic and seemed genuine -great public transportation in DC

What impressed you negatively?

-front page of the school paper discussed current controversy at GT regarding whether school should offer health ins coverage to domestic partners. This is still a debate? seems to go against the whole mission of the school... -my student interviewer admitted that he did not feel supported by administration -students claim their classes are graded on a curve... yet they claim not to want gunners in the class??? this seems to force competition.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

-it was super easy and fast to take the metro to the dupont circle stop and take the shuttle from there to GT
