Is the stereotype of students at Johns Hopkins University accurate?

Alex

While we do spend a lot of time in the library (they know how to make you work hard at hopkins), we know how to have a good time too :o)

Shelby

Not really. (Not from my experience)

Brittany

Well the most famous walk-of-shame is the walk at 3 AM when the library closes to the Hut, our 24 hour study library.

Amy

i think there is a nerd in everyone. but it doesn't mean you can't be cool.

Jess

Some are: students are very studious which at times limits their social interaction with others Some are not: it is a multi-ethnic school with a diverse student body of many, not only Asian, cultures; and not everyone is studying medicine

to some extent

Gregory

While it may be true for some people, most students are not premeds and few are "cutthroat". Most students are happy to help their peers with coursework, even if graded on a curve.

Alex

There are a lot of people that fit the typical pre-med/ engineer image but certainly not everyone.

Lauren

Yes.

Ben

We are definately all weird and awkward. . . a large number of people are socially retarded, but the cutthroat aspect of Hopkins is only felt as much as you let it affect you. Study hard get good grades and no one else matters.
