[quote=Anonymous]Parent of a kid at Hopkins here. So many of the kids start as pre-med and then get weeded out by these prerequisites. My kid is pursuing a STEM major (not pre-med) and some of his friends have really had their eyes opened at just what is required to do well. That said, my advise would be to see if she can retake the class and sub the grad. I've heard of kids doing this but don't know details. She should also try to find a professor to talk with (which may be hard bc the amount of help/mentoring/counseling at JHU is a joke despite the tuition, and online hasn't helped - but a post for another day.) Anyhow, I think you have a right to have a serious conversation with your daughter about what she wants and your expectations esp regarding paying. And honestly, my kids freshman roommate was Writing Seminars major - and spouse & kid agreed that it was crazy to be paying Hopkins tuition for that. YMMV[/quote]
