Nothing yet. I am praying and hoping for a positive outcome.
hello SDNers, long time lurker
I have a question for any of you great people to kindly respond. I am accepted to Penn St COM and I received a late interview for George Washington in late Feb. I am a poor student from Cali and I know that if I go to the GWU interview..more likely, i'll be waitlisted and waste my 250 dollar airplane fee, however, I heard that GWU has a lot of movement in their waitlist in May.
My question: Which school is better in landing residency match in Cali (since I want to go back to Southern Cali after med school)? Also, I am leaning towards emergency medicine or internal medical (GI). And also, can someone post a link or PDF file of GWU residency match list for 2008.
Thank you all.
Hello All. This is my first post on SDN. woo.
Well, I have been invited to interview in early March, and like one of the poster above said, is this merely an interview for a wait list spot? I will definitely go, because just the thought of being able to interview at GW is quite an honor for me. But in terms of statistics, what would be my chances when interviewing in early March. I see that last year they accepted ~385/1080 interviews. So that is about a 1/3 acceptance:interview ratio??
Also, does anyone know if they review the entire amcas prior to the interview (PS, Letters of Rec, activities list, etc). Or wait until after interview to do that?
I have been reading this page for a while, and hope I have the chance to see some of you next year in DC 🙂

Does anyone know the method which GW uses to fill their class?
ie: Do they leave open spots until the end?
I believe they fill the class as spots open up.
This worries me- especially due to the number of students who leisurely hold on to multiple acceptances until May 15.
For instance, if they do indeed fill to capacity and waitlist the rest, many people who would normally be accepted could be put onto the AL simply because someone is holding onto multiple acceptances- often knowing they will not go to certain schools. I would be a shame if many of you are getting AL'd simply because someone who got an acceptance in Oct is holding on to it, knowing they will end up somewhere else.

The fact about last year's movement is very interesting. My understanding was the contrary- and I thought it had been quoted from someone at GW. SDN by a grain of salt...
Thank you Bahadur! 🙂
PS- Brave?
Not cool:
"Correspondence concerning the status of your application has been sent to you via postal mail to your preferred mailing address on file with AMCAS"
I am not giving up. This is my top choice.

Not exactly wonderful new insights into that whole probation issue from last Fall.

did the recent interview invite come via mail or email?
Questions to those of you who have interviewed at GW:
1. Do they give you the name of the interviewers when you get there? Or is it just, you find out when you walk into the room?
2. Is lunch RIGHT before the interview? Did you have a little bit of time to get ready for the interview.. make sure there isnt anything green in your teeth, etc etc..
3. Is the student interviewer always first? Or do some have student first, and some have faculty first?
4. Do they ask any questions politically related?
5. In terms of financial aid, I read that they dont go over it as much, but if you come with questions, will they answer them?
Thanks 🙂
