"I have applied to four other medical schools on the east coast as that is where I'm hoping to land geographically. Those schools are A, B, C, and D. My interest in Georgetown University is strong because your reputation is unmatched as a medical school in this region. I'm also very attracted to your great curriculum, faculty, and the opportunity to study abroad for a semester."
