[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hopkins is a decent school, but it's plagued by a very stressful campus culture, and is frankly really only a good place for pre-med/biomed (but, again, incredibly stressful). Although an elite private school it consistently ranks as one of the least desirable.[/quote] JHU grads are some of the most prestige-obsessed and downright insecure folks I've met. The ones I knew saw it as a backup school and were quite eager to transfer out. Really lacking school spirit. It's like UChicago with a heavy grad presence and weak undergrad focus (for most of its history) but lacking the prestige or an illustrious history to back up its status as an ivy+ school. Maybe things have changed a bit with the rapid shift in the college admissions landscape but still nowhere nearly as desirable as the top institutions even with Bloomberg's record-setting donation.
