Georgetown vs UVA? Not sure how to differentiate between these
if you could pick any program in the country which one would it be? < SUPER hot take, but Georgetown. I love consults and inpatient and DC makes sense for my personal life. So jealous of those of you who got interviews.
Any tea on Georgetown med-derm? < Georgetown derm is a work-horse program
Georgetown/Medstar Med Derm peeps: when did you hear?
anyone want to try to switch interview block times for GW?
so no one knows anything about GWU prelim year?? its my #1 and I have not heard back : ( >> send that LOI>> LOIs only work if you've been interviewed, if then >> i received a derm interview because I sent a LOI to the PD so not always true. It depends what is said
Anyone hear back from George Washington prelim year?
Has anyone recieved followup info from GWU regarding the interview info after the interview offer acceptance?
has georgetown sent out accpetances?
has anyone emailed GW or heard back? seems like no from spreadsheet but jw
According to the spreadsheet, GWU, Einstein and UChicago still havent released aways? Anyone else waiting on one of them or have heard anything?
GWU vs Georgetown for an away rotation, thoughts?
Anyone do an away at georgetown or george washington? How was it? interested to know, both seem very low yield with regards to # of seats < and Howard? it seems like they usually take their own students...< I rotated at GW.. would not recommend. < why?
anyone know if Rutgers sends II in waves or one shot? Same Q for GW.. < unfortunately I'd assume none of us know, would guess it's in one go though?
Some posts are shown because their comments mention this program.
gw has research fellows, georgetown doesnt < did you do an away rotation at either institution??? >> would it be worth doing an away at Georgetown, I cant find much info on it in the spreadsheets. < Georgetown wasn't accepting any away rotators this past year as there were many (~12) home students. Wouldn't recommend an away at Georgetown in general as there are not very many spots (~2, usually 2 this year there were 3) and usually the spots don't go to home students or away rotators.
