Can anyone who has interviewed here in the past/any current students give me advice on what to expect for the interview? I have prepared for the basic why medicine/why Georgetown type of questions but I am still very nervous! Any advice would be much appreciated!

Did Georgetown explicitly say what size the the 1-page PDF should be? (I don't recall it saying being 8.5x11 inches or something.)

You need to hard chill bro
He’s like past neurotic lmao
Hello, does anyone know if this is an open or closed file interview? Also, one or two faculty interviewers?
In addition to Georgetown, What other schools have an "upload a PDF file" kind of secondary? I'm kind of liking this.

Found the gunner who doesn't want others to apply.

Yes, it is I, the gunner with no ii
Being a gunner does not mean having an ii and having top stats. It is an attitude/behavior that even those with lowest of stats can exemplify.

Last night I had a dream that I watched the Georgetown admissions committee read my application, laugh, and throw it in the trash :’)
I am this week! Can let you know how it is!
Current student here. Feel free to PM me with any specific questions.
Can I PM you too?
Hi there, can I PM too? I'm interviewing tomorrow...
Yep anyone can message me. I dont check SDN all too often though but i'll do my best!
Does anyone know if georgetown dislikes in the area emails? I'm going to be at George Washington which is super close by so I would love to be able to interview here the same week.

On their website they explicitly say not to send one unless you already have an II from them
Yep! Mine had everything but MCAT and GPA!

22 II’s?
Did you cure cancer or something? Omg. At this rate, you will be interviewing med schools and not the other way around.
Lol no, I did do research in a cancer lab. Does that count?22 II’s?
Adcom: "Pleasure to meet you. So tell us about yourse-"22 II’s?
@u_raptor: "Why don't we start off with how much you're offering in scholarship money?"
That’s good to hear. Did they grill you on healthcare lol
Only asked me what they thought was the biggest issue rn, nothing about ACA etc

Sweet. Last one: did you check out true SDN interview feedback? Curious if you found reading the past questions on there was helpful or not in preparing 🙂
I think the sdn interview feedback did help, but obviously the questions asked will be variable bc interviewer changes. But otherwise I think it is still a valuable resource!
Cheers mate! Hopefully you’ll hear some good news ... but if not you’re 21 other schools will probably love you 😀
Nah, our friend raptor just has near perfect stats and got too excited about the 'add school' button. We don't have a choice but to respect the game and bow down to our dinosaur overlord.22 II’s?
I hope so!
It's just. So enticing.
@ those who interviewed ... if you requested hosts, when did they reach out?

Are you actually going to all 22 interviews? Lol
There's a few I have either pushed back to Nov. And will attend pending hopeful As from certain schools, or are reconsidering
It depends on the school. They do things differently. Some started rejecting before interviews were sent out (Wake Forest) and some do it after interviews are sent out. And some do “silent rejections” where they never actually give you notice. Some wait until the end of the cycle to tell everyone.
Congrats!! do you mind sharing what interview options they give you?
