Hello everybody,

I was accepted to the JHSPH 11 month MPH program this morning. I am trying to judge the level of intensity of this program. Do most students accepted to the program finish it, or do many students fail to keep up? What are the courses that tend to be the most difficult to do well in? I ask, so maybe I can prepare in advance. Also, in terms of mental stress, if you are in the program, did you feel overwhelmed early on in the program, or burned out within the first month of attendance? Any and all insight would be appreciated, and if you have recommendations for how to best prepare, I would be very grateful.

best regards,
Charles

Here's some stats on their completion rate. It looks like the vast majority of students (about 90%) finish on time.

Another thing to consider is that you can take classes for pass/fail or for letter grade, the former of which I think may help reduce stress, particularly for the more challenging classes.

Thank you Eek, I appreciate the information sincerely.
