"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" Report Response

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. " Report Response

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. " Report Response
