"That my interviewer, upon stating my like of Dr. Sullivan's ideas being taught in medical education, rolled her eyes and said "That's Sullivan's doing."

What are your general comments?

"While I think that the stated goal of Georgetown is wonderful in that they aim to treat the whole person and foster volunteerism, what I saw in the student body were individuals there to study, without deep passion and commitment to service. Could be a great (albeit expensive) place for an education but don't go there if you're looking to surround yourself with interesting, passionate students. " Report Response
