Wow, what an amazing group of people at JHU, and an amazing place to learn medicine - it was practically born there and it is just all around impressive.
💬 Interview Process

What was the most interesting question?

Pretty generic interview questions, a lot of "Tell me about this experience" type things.

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read materials, looked at their fabulous website.

What was the most difficult question?

Student Interviewer: "What do you want me to tell the ad com about you that doesn't show up anywhere else on your application?"

What impressed you positively?

The other interviewees...what a diverse group! The facilities (research and clinical) were outstanding. I (unlike many people) find the location to be an asset - in the middle of a community that really needs good medical care, what an opportunity!

What impressed you negatively?

Reed Hall (med student dorm) wow, what a dump!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There was a time where all applicants were in a room with fourth year med students who were ad comm members...what a stressful hour! People wanted to catch the attention of the 4th years, but not be TOO annoying, definately my least favorite part of the day.
