Johns Hopkins University: The pros, the cons, and how to get in.

shoutout to this guy for coaching the swiss soccer team to the euro 2024 quarter finals

[@abrahamdamilola1542]

Please can you do a video for international students and how we can get in to top colleges in the USA. Especially if we are limited to resources like research and no AP courses offered at our schools. I'm a Nigerian student and I really want to get into Duke university and i want to know how i can increase my chances of getting in.

[@IvyAdmissionHelp]

You don't need AP courses to get into a top school. You just need a combination of 1) excellent academics, and 2) uncommon extracurricular achievement. If you have both of those things, top schools will take a close look at your application.

[@abrahamdamilola1542]

@@IvyAdmissionHelp Okay thank you

[@DragonRollYumYum]

Excellent summary. Do you plan to do a video on Carnegie Mellon (pros/cons/getting in)? Thank you

[@ubatbolor7749]

Hella expensive school that does not usually offer scholarships

[@IvyAdmissionHelp]

Yes, probably in January or February.

[@deepamahesh7246]

Can you do a video about how international students can apply for research internship esp for premed track aspirants?

[@agus1dee]

I applied early definition 1 and right when you said “make sure to spell their name correctly” I immediately ran to my supplemental and luckily it was spelled correctly 😂, I applied for psychology, though I also wanna do pre med.

[@troyann8]

Hi! Did you get in?

[@agus1dee]

@ nope! 😍

[@agus1dee]

@ but it’s okay, that wasn’t even my dream school I was forced to apply

[@IvyAdmissionHelp]

As long as you didn't tell them you were excited to apply "early definition" you'll be fine. :)

[@agus1dee]

@@IvyAdmissionHelp hehe 😜

It’s been a while since this video

[@donnie2832]

Would Johns Hopkins be a good fit for the Ivy League?

[@IvyAdmissionHelp]

It doesn't really work like that.

[@menma420]

can you do a video about uconn?

[@russmalai2586]

What top schools have the most grade inflation?

[@josephtroiano9021]

Harvard probably. Definitely not Hopkins.

[@IvyAdmissionHelp]

Harvard and Yale are famous for giving 70% of students getting A's and A-s.

[@shadowmt6735]

Good comments! JHU is a real elite school in US, like MIT, Princeton, Stanford.

[@IvyAdmissionHelp]

Thanks. JHU is a very STEM-focused, very research-focused, and very rigorous. But if that's what you're looking for, it's tough to beat, especially for careers in medicine.

[@STEM-Travel]

It's interesting how much research funding that Johns Hopkins University is receiving, but is it even comparable to Harvard, MIT, Yale, or Columbia?

[@ayaanraza6578]

yes, it gets the most research funding out of any school in the U.S.

[@IvyAdmissionHelp]

They get far more research funding than anybody else.

[@rend1790]

Do you recommend submitting an sat score that’s below 1400?

[@kaur_295]

you can give SAT multiple times...try again for a more decent score

[@IvyAdmissionHelp]

Not for Johns Hopkins, no. Unless it's so much better than the other students from your region.

[@josephtroiano9021]

Going to this school was by far the greatest mistake of my life. You are paying to be miserable and unemployable.

[@Scueroinc]

Why would you say unemployable?

[@josephtroiano9021]

@@Scueroincyou would fare better in the job market without this degree.

[@IvyAdmissionHelp]

It's a very difficult school, and it "breaks" a lot of students. But you could also say the same about MIT, UChicago, Princeton, Caltech, Carnegie Mellon, Georgia Tech, or really any top STEM-based school.
