2021-2022 Johns Hopkins

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Feeling EXTREMELY prophetic rn I felt the Tuesday notif in my bones somehow. But wasn’t expecting an A, so that part had me shook. (Interviewed in October). But I was at work and checked my email and almost screamed in clinic lol. Super happy. Congrats to everyone, and to everyone who didn’t get the news they wanted, you’re freaking amazing, try not to let it bog ya down cuz you’re gonna be great doctors regardless
 
First off, congrats to everyone that got accepted today! But as a consolation prize for myself, would anyone know what the WL movement is like for Hopkins?
 
Are the pre-II Rs still rolling out today or did they all come in earlier?

Same here. Silence from 10 schools since early July and I sent update letters. I'm dreading the wait over the holidays

Congrats! When were you complete?
 
Anyone know where to send post-interview updates? I know Hopkins doesn't accept pre-II updates, but I keep seeing in various places that they do accept post-ii updates just not sure where to send it.
 
Question for current students/people familiar with JHU lecture style:

hello! i was super fortunate to get the A here and I’ve really fallen for Hopkins. however I just heard from someone that lectures at Hopkins are very often taught by researchers, who go more in depth in their own areas & may not fully cover step material. any thoughts on this from current students or others, who have more knowledge about that? Does step being P/F make that less relevant? (Sorry if these are dumb questions, I’m still trying to navigate around different med school curriculums & do research about it so I’m just unsure about some stuff)

I believe that’s how all medical schools are fyi. No one teaches with 100% overlap for step1.

This is why when you read many peoples write ups on step1, some talk about how they suffered on the in house exams so they could dedicate more time on step.

there are a variety of outside materials that cover board info tho so having access to the knowledge isn’t an issue no matter where you go for medical school in the USA

Also step being p/f probably won’t change how people approach it, the better your initial knowledge base the better for future board exams.


Edit: also hopkins has a pretty high avg step1 score so clearly it works for the students

For anyone else who also hasn't heard anything, I was complete 9/21 and haven't heard back. From reading other posts, it sounds like those of us who completed then or later might be just coming up for review around now (unless others who completed then heard back a while ago, in which case I'm wrong).

If you select a medical school known for its research, it's not surprising that some of its lecturers would be PhDs who are experts in their field.

II today! Honestly really surprised, thought I was out of the running. Earliest date is latish Jan! LM 81, had some processing issues with my JHU app, so I’m not entirely certain when I was considered “complete.”

I got some strange email 10/19 that was like “we invite u to take next steps” and then when I completed whatever they needed (it was like a photo or something idk), I got a “We received all materials” email on 10/20. I THOUGHT I was done with the secondary in like august so long story short, idk what I’m doing.
 
Anyone know if there is any interview spots left?
 
Does anyone have an idea of when the January decisions will come out?

I'm assuming January 28th or January 31st (Friday/Monday respectively), though I may be forgetting specifics.

I agree, my guess rn is 1/26 (Wed) or maybe 1/28 (Fri).

2021 was 1/27 (Wed)
2020 was 1/29 (Wed)
2019 was 2/1 (Fri)
 
Do you think if you recently interviewed like in the past two weeks the decision will be part of the end of January round or the April round?

Definitely not January. I think the cutoff for december was like a month or more in advance

I think you’re in the April round… the dean of admissions I think said they start the overall review a month before the date they release them (could be mis-remembering though… I think he said this in a podcast too). I interviewed like 6ish weeks before the December release date and I’m part of the January group for reference.
