I went into Hopkins expecting it to be a breeze. High school was, I got a great SAT score, and have dominated my academic competition until then.

The first year was quite a shock.

However, the school is beautiful, Baltimore have countless interesting restaurants to try, and the social life isn't as bad as others make it out to be.

I had a great time at Hopkins. I worked hard, studied often, and went out whenever I could. Hopkins had trained me to be an efficient, productive person. Some of the professors became my mentors whom I exchange emails with on a monthly basis and seek advice from. The reputation of the school carries quite some weight and had helped me land my first job and helped me immensely in medical school interviews.

It's not an easy ride, but if you can step up to the competition and show that you can compete with the best of them, you will be rewarded.
