[quote=Anonymous]Campus safety much better than 10 years ago.

Social life - not very good. Google "hopkins 500". people downplay it, but social life is not comparable to say peer schools like georgetown or NW.

I would say it has a lot to do with the type of person that goes to JHU vs. Gtown.

JHU is very strong academically but has quite poor OCR/career services for a school of its calibre. It is miles behind Carnegie Mellon for instance or Georgetown in this regard and I have no clue why it is like this. JHU doesn't hurt for resources, especially resources-per-student basis.

I think it is because JHU funnels a lot more students to med and grad school directly from UG compared to its peers on a percentage basis.

I personally would not send a child to JHU unless they wanted BME/medical school badly and were science superstars who thrive under pressure/brutal curves.

I think peer institutions are more well rounded and cater to a broader range of students socially as well as from a career path sense.
