Can anyone comment on how much walking outside is involved in the tour? It's going to be sweltering during the last week of August, and I don't think sweating through my suit would make a good impression haha.

I hope the rooms are air conditioned....

Georgetown M2 here (yes, really- I know I've been negligent last year when posting but that was because I was busy). I can't really speak for the tour because when I interviewed at Georgetown a year and a half ago, it was during the winter, but I doubt that the interviewers are going to judge you because everyone knows it's hot and humid outside.

Relax.
 
Anyone else having trouble with the payment online? It won't let me go to the website on Chrome, and Safari won't load it either...
 
Hey everyone! Any tips on how to prepare for this interview? What has been working for you guys? I interview a week from tomorrow and am getting pretty nervous :/
 
If people are getting rejected with over 70 LizzyM scores which are exceptional stats, then I might as well not feed them my $100 secondary fee and just apply elsewhere. Hopefully, when Bernie Sanders mentions that colleges have become a business that needs to be deconstructed, he hopefully means medical schools as well.
 
I completed my application around July 15th or so and just received an interview invitation today. @TulaneUnderdog don't base your applications on other people's experience, my stats aren't good and I got an invite: LizzyM 65

Is applying here with a LizzyM of 77 worth it?
Do you want to go to Georgetown? If you do and can make your case as to why you fit their mission and how it would benefit you to be a student there then it is always worth it. If you cannot find validation for applying there, then it isn't.

While writing the "Why Georgetown" essay and doing some research on the school, I came to a realization... I have little experience directly working with the underserved, though the rest of my EC's and volunteering experiences are fine. Did anyone with an II have little exposure as well? I am considering not completing the secondary because of this.
