What are your thoughts on the requirements for medical students with certain federal grants to practice in medically underserved areas for a period of time following residency or fellowship training?

"I believe that, because there is such a huge shortage of physicians in rural areas, students receiving federal assistance should do their part by practicing in these areas for a certain amount of time. I understand this may seem unfair; however, there could be exceptions for certain rarer specialties that don't practice in these underserved areas."

You can share your thoughts on this with the interviewers, but you want to remain positive and show that you understand these programs are in place to get physicians in medically underserved areas of the country. Before your interview with Georgetown University's medical school, research the types of programs available in this arena so you can talk about them as you answer.
