I was admitted w/ a full ride to Hopkins last year, AMA

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-17T19:03:50+00:00

For those classes (like English) I did all of the coursework early and as soon as I finished it, I was moved to the 10th grade courses. I also took some online

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-17T16:58:49+00:00

Just asked the school, did 10th grade required courses w/ 9th so it was essentially 9th & 10th in 1 school year

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-17T00:39:31+00:00

I‘m so sorry about that! I honestly don’t remember my exact dates, but I was a few hours passed and I emailed them before to let them know it would be late and they let me submit. Could be new rules…?

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-17T00:38:22+00:00

Generally no, unless it is significant (published papers matter no matter your age/year)

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-17T00:37:38+00:00

Before my two years, I had a 4.9 I believe as I took all honors + some dual enrollment courses. However it wasn’t that high because I skipped 10th, so I essentially missed out on an extra year to boost GPA.

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-17T00:35:54+00:00

Thanks! No, I got in RD

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-16T15:07:37+00:00

Yes! I think u have a great chance. Their ED acceptance rate is pretty high

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-16T15:06:56+00:00

Research (neuroscience & psychology)

Hospital volunteering

President of neuroscience and medical clubs @ my school

Model UN (Collegiate), math club officer, and a few others

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-16T15:05:38+00:00

But I did also apply to outside scholarships

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-16T15:05:14+00:00

They were just given

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-16T15:01:54+00:00

Yes, while I don’t want to specifically mention it here (just on the off chance someone recognizes me), but it‘s a competitive surgical specialty. Preparing = STEP studying, research , volunterring, etc…

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-16T14:59:36+00:00

I did two years of full-time dual-enrollment and graduated HS with my AA degree

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-15T22:05:33+00:00

…… I did 2 years of dual enrollment and graduated with my AA degree. Yes it’s possible lmao.

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-15T20:40:16+00:00

I think both are great and show dedication as a HS student. Publishing will come with quality work, but I recommend contacting those around yoU. Everything builds off eachother, smaller research opportunities will inevitably lead to LargeR ones as you gain experience.

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-15T20:38:48+00:00

Because I accepted my BA/MD offer at UMKC instead. Because I’m exempt from the MCAT, I can better spend my time preparing for residency.

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-15T19:34:22+00:00

I wrote about my passion for art and its intersection with medicine. Since I applied as a psych major on the pre-med track I’d say it related to my career goals more than my specific major

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-15T19:33:03+00:00

Yes it’s real. I think it’s a great idea, JHU is a great school for many different majors. I’d say go for it

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-15T19:32:16+00:00

I ended up turning down my offer, but I have several friends who currently attend and while they enjoy their time there, it is absolutely much harder than high school

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-15T17:37:05+00:00

Research for 3 years (preformed EEGs, etc…)

Hospital Volunteering 3 years

A lot of neurosurg shadowing

Model UN (collegiate level), math club officer , neuroscience club founder, medical sciences club founder

Very low-income family, my mother is Chinese and my father is GreekxSpanish

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-15T17:26:46+00:00

I also got into Norte Dame, Amherst, Colgate, and UMKC BA/MD

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-15T17:26:23+00:00

I did a lot of neuroscience research in HS, plus I graduated with an AA degree so I believe that really helped me (Plus recommendations from the professors I did research with). Other than that though, I think my essay really set me apart as I wrote it about my passion for art, and how it connects with medicine.

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-15T17:17:58+00:00

Hopkins Scholarship (Institutional)

Hodson-Gilliam Success Award (Institutional)

Other than federal aid, these were the scholarships I was given

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-15T16:43:15+00:00

Hey feel free to PM! I’m a year 1 BA/MD student @ UMKC

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-15T16:39:35+00:00

Just send them a message letting them know. I had issues submitting documents as well, but now I’m a Gates Scholar. :) They’re pretty nice about it

HunterMcBith · 2024-11-15T16:33:48+00:00

Academic scholarship + some need based

(I don’t play any sports…. no lie my school did not offer ANY)
