I am so glad I decided to go to Hopkins. Overall I find the student body to be really diverse and enjoyable. I haven't seen the "cut-throat" nature that people talk about and find that most students work together and help each other out. There is a niche for everyone here. Also the classes are intellectually stimulating, challenging, yet definitely managable if you put in the effort. Overall I've had an excellent experience with the faculty only having one professor I was not satisfied with. The campus is amazing for being in an urban environment and the more I get to know Baltimore the more I like it, it's no NYC but definitely can be fun. Also many times people think it's impossible to have a social life at Hopkins but that is totally untrue. Many of us here work hard and party hard, while maintaining good grades. I'm so glad I chose to go to Hopkins.

questionHi, my name is Millie Shah and I am a senior at Sunny Hills High School in southern California and currently looking at applying early to JHU. You seem like an honest person and I was really curious about what life is like at Johns Hopkins. I am interested in the BME major and I have been to Johns Hopkins for a summer program but I am scared that as an undergrad, college at JHU will be too competitive and no fun at all. i would really appreciate your objective and honest opinion on Johns Hopkins social scene because I am sure we all agree that this school excels in academics(so that is not really a deciding factor for me—but i have heard college is the best time of your life and i dont want to waste mine being miserable). Thank you so much for your time. -Millie
