Johns Hopkins University Top Questions

Describe how Johns Hopkins University looks to someone who's never seen it.

ashley

Tough academically, professors expect the best, very demanding and competitive in the classroom.

Julian

too many jocks, too few intellectuals, but very good school

chris

social desert. high pressure. academically overwhelming. nothing to do, nowhere to go, no one to go with. The pressure to study is so high here that no one ever does anything else but study. seriously. No memorable spring break trips, no fun trip to new york. The most that ever happens is friday or saturday night (choose one) at a club or so, but even that is rare (few times a year, if that). otherwise, top tier education, a high profile name that'll get you anywhere, and a small cozy campus.

Katie

A research university with strong but limited humanties program, and an excellent program for biological sciences.

Anjali

Jhu is very academically oriented.

Johns Hopkins is a unique, beautiful school, where I feel students truly experience college academically and socially, where they are challenged in and out of the classroom, being surrounded by people from all different backgrounds, which give students a real well rounded education.

Tim

Hopkins is missing a lot of things like school spirit and pride, but people here complain too much.

Johns Hopkins University is a school which has a very demanding workload and its' vigorous competition constantly stresses out students who don't feel like they are as good as others.
