MD at John Hopkins University - Entrance test and Eligibility criteria


I want to go for MD course offered by John Hopkins University’s School of Medicine. What are their eligibility criteria for admission? What entrances shall I have to appear to take admission in John Hopkins University’s School of Medicine?

You will have to appear Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) for admission. The MCAT must be taken no later than September in the year the application is submitted. The oldest MCAT considered will be four years prior to date of expected matriculation. You will also have to successfully pass the TOEFL examination before applying for the interview.

Recently, they have adapted the holistic review process to select applicants to interview at Hopkins considering many factors like the rigor of the applicant’s course of studies, grades, MCAT scores, clinical and research exposure, letters of recommendation, personal statement and the applicant’s understandings of medicine. In addition, they also consider the path the applicants have taken which led to their desire to apply to medical school and become a physician.

Other requisites include having studies these subjects: Biology at the college level, chemistry (general, organic, biochemistry), mathematics, physics, and humanities, social and behavioural sciences. Additional requirements are computer literacy and communication skills.
