[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The 8 most important schools for the United States are Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Annapolis, West Point, Hopkins and Stanford.  Hopkins is the number one research institution by a wide margin.[/quote]

Are you not into STEM schools like MIT?[/quote]

And Hopkins is the number one research institution because of APL, not the University. [/quote]

Not true. Hopkins gets the most money out of any school from the nih.

Who cares if hopkins is an ivy or not.  It is better than many of the schools in the ivy list. [/quote]

Maybe in pre-med but highly doubtful about that. False in terms of student caliber and outcomes. Hopkins loses cross admits battles to just about every ivy+ school. Most kids would rather go to an ivy (or MIT, Stanford, Chicago, Duke) than JHU. It’s not a top destination for any nationally known elite prep schools or selective publics. Not well known like Uchicago as a pipeline for academia either. The preprofessional scene is also terribly weak. Part of that cutthroat competition probably stems from its own insecurity complex.[/quote]
