    Summary of Application Experience

    It seems to be a 'crapshoot.' How do I get a Johns Hopkins interview before hearing from Penn State?

    Interviews have all been conversational, enlightening, and fun. No pressure interviews, and no 'stump' questions. Was rarely asked the common questions such as 'Why medicine? Why this school?'
