I have my interview today (first ever) - what kinds of questions should I ask at...
omg good luck
mine was way easier than i thought
prepare for the usual why georgetown questions and why major and et cetera
have a good answer for "tell me about urself"
have good questions to ask
be preapred for a wildcard, and just be urself for that question
my interviewer told me that Gtown is kind of strict about the rules
elder loom
mention the chinese communist party
the issue is, the interviewer is chinese and i study chinese 😭 so i'm going to say the full "columbia combined program" lmao

if you believe your application is very good, id go for it, no harm in applying
did you take the SAT?

I have a great gpa, courserigor, and ec’s I didn’t want to study for it then hah...
it wouldn’t hurt to retest if u can! but gpa and course rigor are great indicators of ur academic capabilities! i would apply if feel u’d sincerely benefit from georgetown:)

Running out of time on retesting and don’t feel like retesting bc of one school on my list

I’m actually so mad at myself. I misjudged my circumstances, and I wasn’t able to do my interview today. Thankfully, my interviewer told me that she would be able to do the interview next week.
Although, I’m confident that I would be able to reschedule the interview in time, I am afraid that this would have screwed up my first impression. If so, how boned am I?

Check schools for if they superscore act
32 act for Georgetown is honestly probably fine because they require tests
If they had test optional their average scores would probably bump up a good amount

they don’t susperscore but I’m hoping because you send the official test they’ll at least see I got a 33 yknow? I just hope it’s not a deal breaker

How much harder is getting into the intl relations school compared to gov major at arts and sciences
Like is it a huge difference because everyone at my school is applying to intl relations but I’m applying to arts for gov and idk if it’s going to differentiate us or not

Do college of arts and sciences applicants and schools of fs applicants get evaluated really separately even when from the same high school?
Like would a gov major for arts and sciences be stacked against a foreign service applicant at the same high school?

I have one regret in my application, and that was the fact I didn’t scramble a portfolio in time
But I mean I can just do that when I receive the eventual deferral letter
Also TIL
