💬1. Interview was relatively conversational and nice compared to other interviews. Nice faculty, seem to be getting several new attendings who just completed residency (good culture?). Residents seem chill and nice. Amazing place to live, but high COL. > residents cold and awkward

anyone know why Medstar/Georgetown is under ACGME warning for probation? // The official term is "Continued Accreditation with Warning": Cook County Health and Hospitals System, Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science (Rochester), MedStar Health/Washington Hospital Center, Tufts Medical Center, UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine/UCLA Medical Center, University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, Wayne State University School of Medicine. The only program that is on "Probationary Accreditation" is Rush University Medical Center.

can't believe I got UCLA!!! Thought it was lost cause after getting rejected for like 15 of their away rotation slots but I guess applying to that many may have been a preference signal itself
