-Facilities a bit outdated and cramped, with new ED not to open until 2010...

WAMC 514 MCAT 3.4cGPA, International student
I am Brazilian-Portuguese and I graduated from Johns Hopkins University in 2020 with a Major in Molecular Cellular Biolgy and GPA of 3.4. I took the MCAT in 2020 and got a 514.

PhD-to-MD - Improving my application for 2022 (URM, cGPA 3.57, AMCAS sGPA 3.48)
Hello, everyone.
My GPA is a 3.57, and I'm currently a 4th year PhD student at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. I wanted to apply to medical school during the upcoming cycle (2021-2022), but I was unable to secure more shadowing and clinical experiences in 2020 due to COVID-19 (a familiar story). I plan on shadowing for about 100-150 hours this year on top of scribing. I will take my MCAT in June or September 2021.
I will apply to at least 20 schools, including Harvard...

USC vs. Johns Hopkins Anesthesia Residency
