[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So when I went back to my reunion there, students seemed overall happier than when I was there. That being said, I had a positive experience.  Do not get me wrong, it can be an extremely tough social experience.

It is also a hard school to be at if you do not want to go on to some type of graduate degree and want a marketable major undergrad that you can get a good job with out of the gate.

I'm not sure I would encourage my children to go there unless they were an extremely driven, very hard working student.

[b]They have pass fail first semester (at least they did when I went there) [/b]and there is a very clear reason for that. It is a tough, tough school. [/quote]

they dropped it last year or the year before.

alums are not happy - atleast the ones i speak to. I was already lukewarm in recommending it to kids who ask me about JHU but once they did that, I have told virtually any kid that asks to look elsewhere.

JHU is a great academic instutituion but at the UG level you can get a way better experience at a peer school.

It's too hard, grindy, with a terrible social scene. undergraduate should be different. [/quote]
