INCREASE REQUIREMENTS

Johns Hopkins Finds it Necessary to Demand More Chemistry

Entrance requirements for the Johns Hopkins Medical School have been increased, due to the great need for more thorough preparation in chemistry. For students entering the school in September, 1921, the requirements are:

"Chemistry: At least two years of college work, of which one and one-third years should be devoted to Inorganic and two-thirds of a year to Organic Chemistry. Each year's course should comprise three class room exercises a week and five to six hours of laboratory work.

"After 1923 three years' preparation in Chemistry will be required, including at least 240 hours of class room work and 500 hours of laboratory work. The former must include 60 hours in Organic Chemistry and a short course in Physical Chemistry; while the latter must include one year's work in quantitative analysis and 120 hours in Organic Chemistry."
