Do You Think that Johns Hopkins University is a good choice for undergraduate?

“In 2008, Hopkins applicants who were accepted to medical school had an average cumulative GPA of 3.55 and science GPA of 3.48 while the corresponding national figures were 3.66 and 3.60 respectively.”

Thanks! The last bullet is great news. Looks like Med schools weight the JHU GPA higher than the average school.

<p>Umm, no it is does no such thing. Med school is gpa PLUS mcat, and withouth the corresponding MCAT Scores, a lower accepted gpa means little by itself. And, of course, that national average of a 3.6 includes grades taken at community colleges, taken at Podunk college, the University of Phoenix, etc. </p>

<p>Need two-by-two Naviance-style graph to really see the benefit, if any.</p>
