Does any one here know (1) how many Johns Hopkins premed students graduate every year? and (2) how many of them get into Johns Hopkins medical school? Thanks a lot!

First, these type of questions suggest to me that you need to chill out. Assuming you are still in high school, these type of things should be the last thing you are focusing on when trying to choose a college.

Nevertheless--although the numbers will vary year to year--roughly a quarter of the class in any given year considers itself premed (there is no pre-med major and no requirement to use pre-professional advising so there is no sure way to tell). Typically, about 88%-90% of those who use pre-professional advising get into med school on the first try.

Typically, about 10 Hopkins undergraduates per year matriculate to Hopkins Medical school. That's about 10% of the medical school class, which is only about 100 students. Hopkins is, by far, the most heavily represented undergraduate school at Hopkins Med.

At the Open House one of the Bio Pro. said that about 10 get into JHU Med and roughly 70% of kids w/ GPA above 3.2 get into Med School. I thought that percentage was a little low, but this is coming from a bio professor.

He said that if your gpa is not above 3.2 you will not get into any Med School, even if u r coming from JHU. I have heard many different stats (88-90%), but this one is from an actual professor, so keep that in mind.

Does any one have any stats straight from the pre-professional advisors?

The stats for the university is closer to 90%, with an average GPA of 3.4. The bio professor was probably talking specifically about bio majors. For instance, I believe that premeds from the Biophysics major have a 100% acceptance rate to med school, or something very close.
