How did you prepare for the interview?

Read over my secondary app essay. Looked over interview feedback on SDN.

What impressed you positively?

Beautiful grand entrance to the med school building. Mrs. Sullivan's talk in the morning that everyone talks about... it was amazing and very helpful. The dean, interviewer, everyone seemed friendly, happy, and helpful.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really, although the tour was less comprehensive and the tour guide less enthusiastic than at other schools I have been to.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Didn't know that Georgetown now has a research requirement. Mrs. Sullivan explained the requirement to us somewhat and said that students usually finish the req before starting the third year, although our tour guides (1st years) hadn't even started thinking about it.

What are your general comments?

Really great day overall. Very informative about Georgetown and what they are all about.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
