I feel sooo validated by @THETHEGUBGUB ! I have also spent around 2.5 years at Georgetown and I am supposed to graduate in Spring 2024. However, my experience at Georgetown wasn’t that great. From the break of the norovirus, to lack of proper professors, I decided and realized Georgetown was not the best for me and my field of study, STEM. There are even nurses who are professors in the medical school. This professor once taught a course for undergrad, this course was poorly organized. I didn’t do that well in this course. There was a pre-req course even harder than this course and I received an A. The professor was shocked that I received this A, for some reason. On this note also, as a person of color, Georgetown is not liberal and I strongly advise other students of color to be very cautious in picking this school.
Furthermore, As students we even discuss how not qualified that professor and many others professors are to teach, especially in an accelerated 7 year MD program. Several times I would take courses at another well known school in NYC and receive As. Even in December, our averages for physics for the class was 68-72. Several people asked for a curve on a class platform, and the professor refused to curve. The professor erased all those written demands, as if the students never asked. Along with the exclusivity of the student body, the administration and faculty are very aloof and very difficult to communicate with.
Overall, I also realized I gave Georgetown a lot of chances and in the process my face was slapped a lot, figuratively. I then decided to apply to transfer and eventually leave.
I’m not sure if you decided to leave, but it was nice to read something that I relate to so much as a student. I wish you all the best!
