<p>Hey all, I've just been accepted to JHU (but rejected BME), and I was wondering how many JHU undergrads each year make it into the top tier medical schools? These include the ivy league med schools, stanford, etc, and JHU med school (i read on the boards that the JHU figure is 18-20), and other comparably good schools. It has always been a goal of mine to make it there, because of their excellent research facilities, prestige, and helpfulness in getting into a good residency. So I would appreciate if someone could give me these figures (admissionsdaniel maybe?) without giving me responses like "people are fortunate just to get into any med school", or "worry about your credentials first," etc. Thanks.</p>
<p>bbuummpp anyone know??</p>
<p>Yeah, I'm wondering the same thing.</p>
<p>You won't find an answer to your question. Frankly, that's the case for every school you ask about. Your question is too specific, and those statistics vary so much that no one is going to care to take track of them.</p>
<p>Just know that Hopkins will give you a leg up compared to attending a low-tier state school.</p>
<p>Well its between UMD honors/gemstone, Georgetown, and JHU for me. And I was just wondering which one will give me the best chance to getting there, and I have seen such data released by princeton/MIT on some other thread so I thought hopkins would know too. Or maybe a current student could telll how many people they know who have reached those top med schools.</p>
<p>If you do well at a school like JHU you wlil be destined to go anywhere; this is what I believe. I am sure it sends more than it's fair share of students to the schools you are talking about - much more than a typical state school or a LAC I'm willing to bet.</p>
<p>very little discussion here... someone oughtta know some more</p>
<p>Can I share a thought? OK, imagine a competitive medical school admissions committee -- they are reviewing their thousands of files. Do you really think all they look at is the Undergraduate school each student goes to. CLEARLY NOT. It is not the school you go to but what you do for four years. </p>
<p>Choose the school that fits you and provides you with the opportunities to succeed. Which school provides the best research opportunities, which school makes it easy for you to enrich your academics, which school has the most unique faculty and advising??? I say Hopkins, but these are the questions you need to ask yourself regarding each school you have been admitted to. </p>
<p>Just my two cents. Obviously none of you will listen to me, and you will just keep debating the name and reputation of schools.</p>
