"Georgetown emphasizes the humanistic side of medicine more so than the other schools I looked at (probably b/c it is a Catholic institution)." Report Response
"Being stuck in the "fishbowl" (a teeny waiting area) for all of the morning info sessions but especially the interview coordinator! It is really disconcerting when someone who is not a part of the decision-making admissions comittee tells you that she has read everyone's files, says that some of us might not be the best match for Georgetown, and then singles out an interviewee, saying he had the best essay. She also lectured us on firm handshakes and looking our interviewers in the eye, which some people might have found helpful, but I find unnecessary (by this point shouldn't we already know that?) and condescending." Report Response
"According to the interview coordinator, if the religious aspects of medicine don't interest you, Georgetown probably isn't the best match for you." Report Response
"Kind of awkward b/c they assign you an interviewer on the spot and take you out of the isolation chamber waiting area one at a time. My interview was with a Ph.D. I was unfortunately misinformed by the interview coordinator who gave me the impression that my interviewer was an MD by saying that she was in family medicine so there was a slight moment of awkwardness while my interviewer explained that she is not an MD. It was also a little weird at first when I had to sit and watch her for five minutes while she read my file (which you are given to take to your interviewer), but afterwards it was fine. She had to fill out a sheet, which she did while I talked, and then she put it back in my file, which I then had to return to the admissions office myself. " Report Response
