I was considering applying to this program before I decided to switch careers, and it's definitely a program for people who mainly working in the biotech industry. If I remember correctly, a majority of the classes are online-based for working professionals and they are trying to switch 100% to online-based. It is optional to attend the classes live, but most of the students wish to study from home until they have to complete the remainder of their classes on the jhu campus. Also, it's part-time and mainly focuses on industry (there are a variety of emphases to choose from, and an mba/ms combined option). If you're looking for an smp, I'm pretty sure that this would not be one, although I would advise to talk to the directors first. They do accept the MCAT in lieu of a GRE or GMAT score.
