Insights on the Georgetown MBA Experience

I am considering applying to the Georgetown MBA program and would like to learn more about the school. My background is ~4 years in MBB consulting, and I graduated from a top 20 university.

I am particularly interested in a few aspects of the program: 

Admissions process: What is the admissions process like and how much are grades/scores emphasized? I majored in economics in college but had a below average gpa, would a high gmat score help with this?

Job Placement: How effective is the career services program in helping students secure internships and full-time positions?

Classroom and campus experience: What aspects did you find most rewarding or challenging during your time at Georgetown?

I would appreciate any insight on how this school compares to other similar MBA programs as well.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Yeah a high GMAT can makeup for a low GPA (not super low though). It's called being a splitter.
