Interview Experiences
huge on research
Siegelman really stresses research during his presentation. Magid is very nice. Residents were surprisingly cool, and almost everyone I talked to was headed for private practice.
The PD grilled me on research and desire to do academics. Even pimped me on a case (showed me an aortic aneurysm asking what was what) Only antagonistic interview of the entire year.
Very nice faculty and very nice interviewers. 2 of them were residents.
Hopkins is a great name brand and you will hear about this during your interview day. Interviews, except for one guy, are generally relaxed with getting to know you type questions. They did try to sell Baltimore.
Great place Suprisingly nice interviews.
Fantastic program
5-6 10 minute interviews. Kind of felt a little weird. Most people were cool and down-to-earth.
Got pimped during interview!

Program Advantages
incredible medical facilities, Stan Siegelman (a true legend)
Awesome residents. Johns Hopkins. Flexible program. Strong program.
Great rep, good opportunities for research.
They ranked me - that was a HUGE advantage for me! Very friendly atmosphere. Extremely impressive residents. Tons of equipment, huge department, really nice facilities. NIH director was old rads department chair at Hopkins.
World class faculty/hospital with amazing residents and education. Research opportunities are as good as they get in most all areas of radiology. All doors will be open to you when done training here. Residents happy.
JHH name. Top faculty and clinical load. Need I say more, it's JHH!
It's Hopkins.
Great reputation. Great equipment and pathology exposure.
Reputation of hospital. Strong departments all around.
#1 hospital, can't go wrong

Program Disadvantages
Baltimore
residents were not very sociable
For some, Baltimore (I kind of liked it).
Painted themselves as academic or die (may or may not be the actual prevailing atmosphere, but definitely the impression given at the interview).
They say Baltimore is, but have lived in Philly and Saint Louis which are supposed to be horrible dangerous cities and had a great time in both. Plan on living in Federal Hill, Canton, or some other interesting Inner Harbor neighborhood.
You'll hear this again and again about Hopkins but its greatest disadvantage is most likely its location. Baltimore looked fine to me but there is a crime problem. Residents downplay this and emphasize the nicer residential areas they commute from.
Baltimore. Some don;t like Hopkins intensity. I loved it overall.
The area surrounding the hospital is not the greatest, but improving. It seems like most residents live some distance from the hospital. Also, peds is apparently not that strong here.
Residents have to compete with fellows for work. Baltimore is dangerous.
Baltimore.
