Requirements for Admission
(the information below is exactly the same as what it says on the Johns Hopkins Medical School website, so yea... that's all the information.)
Preparations for Medical School...
The courses taken and the grades earned are just a portion of an applicant’s credentials. Certain areas of study (ex: introductory biology, chemistry, physics - associated with laboratory exercises and calculus) have traditionally been a requirement for students applying for medical schools. The field of concentration for undergraduate studies and the selection of additional courses in the sciences and mathematics should be the choice of the student and won't affect the admission process.
Requirements for Admission... (required for ALL applicants)
1) Accredited Institution: All applicants must be or have previously been in attendance at an institution on the list entitled “Accredited Institutions of Postsecondary Education,’’ authorized and published by the American Council on Education. Extension or evening courses taken in fulfillment of premedical course requirements are not acceptable unless they are identical to courses offered in the college’s regular academic program. Preparation in foreign universities (in most cases) must be supplemented by a year or more of work in an approved university in the United States.
2) Standardized Testing: The Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) is required for acceptance.
3) Required Academic Work: A list of specific pre-medical course requirements are listed below.....
- BIOLOGY
- CHEMISTRY
a) General Chemistry
b) Organic Chemistry
c) Biochemistry
- PHYSICS
- MATH
a) Calculas
b) Statistics
- HUMANITIES, SOCIAL AND BEHAVIORAL SCIENCES
*Addtional Requirements*
- COMPUTER LITERACY
- COMMUNICATION SKILLS
- TEAMWORK SKILLS
4) Letters of Recommendation: A recommendation from the applicant’s college premedical committee or an officially designated premedical advisor is required. If the college does not have a premedical advisor or premedical committee, two letters of recommendation are required from science faculty members in science departments who have taught the applicant and one non-science faculty member who has also taught the applicant. In addition to the letters indicated above, applicants with advanced degrees and/or full time employment are required to submit recommendations from each component of their education and major work experiences.
