I'm in the process of choosing my colleges for the upcoming year, and I really want to attend Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. I really loved the campus visit and felt like all of the things the admissions officer was talking about connected with me. However, I wish to major in Chemical Engineering, or perhaps another Chemistry field. I know Johns Hopkins has a strong Biology/Biomedical Engineering field, but I don't think they're too strong in the Chemical Engineering field.

Someone once told me that the classes required for both were not too different, but I'm not too sure about this.

I really do love Chemistry, I can deal with Physics, although I prefer Chem, and Calculus I'm currently learning. Should I decide to apply to Johns Hopkins even though I don't know if their Chem fields are strong? Or should I apply to somewhere like UC Berkeley, which is ranked top in the Chemical Engineering field? I've never been to Berkeley, and this is for Early Decision.

Well, Johns Hopkins is a good university and i'm sure they have a good program for what you want to study. As long as the university you go to does not suck, then you should be fine. I currently go to a university that is not strong in my field, however, students that graduate from this field get hired to really good jobs. Going to Berkeley should be really cool though. I heard it's really nice. Just choose whatever u think it is more convenient for you. I think both universities would work just fine.

By the way, as long as you get your degree, that's all it matters. Classes might be slightly different, but in the end you will really learn everything you need to know when you start practicing in your career. Just focus on getting really good grades. Good Luck with your decision!

This film details the E-5625 pilot plant on the Aberdeen Proving Grounds. It explains the use of the plant between 1942 and 1986 as a site for the development and storage of chemical materials. The film has good information on the activities performed within each room of the plant. Also included is info on why the plant closed as a result of
budgetary and environmental law issues.

I'm finishing my Bachelor's Degree in Chemical Engineer and International Studies from a Top 45 U.S school. U.S Native, speak English and Arabic fluently.

Just wondering if it's worth looking into Dubai for jobs. From your experiences, what have you seen u.s engineers fluent in arabic and english receive salary.benefit wise.

Single male, no kids for a while, so no school fees either.

you can not only get a good job in dubai,but you can actually get the best ones…
you fit into all requirements excellently,you don't need to speak arabic but if you do then its an added advantage,and you're unmarried as well,being US educated getting a job won't be even a tad difficult,dubai's got lots of jobs for chem. engineers

I tried getting into Yale, Standford, and Harvard, during my senior year, but i didn't get in. I had a 4.4 gpa and a 32 on the ACT and a 2150 on the SAT (damn English!!!!) also 720 on Chem and 800 in math 2. So I will be attending USC (Southern California) this fall and plan on majoring in Chemical Engineering (Biochemical). I just finished summer classes and received A's in Chem 1 and Calc 1 ( that's all I took). If i get a 4.0 my first year do you think ill have a chance of getting in? ps im a minority (hispanic)

It certainly is possible, but even if you don't, know that USC is very well-respected and won't keep you from getting into grad school. You did well on everything, and the fact that you didn't get into any of your choices was probably just due to the fact that there was someone similar to you who was just a little bit stronger who got accepted at all three. You have very little to worry about.
