It is harder thanQuite Bright
It is harder than expected and Ivy schools have grade inflation. I wish we did. Our professors get pleasure in the harsh grades JHU is known o give, and it makes getting the premier internships harder for JHU students. This is a fact.

Question
This University does not know how to beBright
This University does not know how to be a school, it is truly terrible. They do provide hundreds of options and opportunities but then overwhelm the students do much that they cannot take advantage of any. The "school" may just as well provide none. Their obsessive course requirements take all of the students' time preventing them from participating in any extra-curriculars. In this way, Johns Hopkins destroys every student's individuality. Their reasumes will not mention a plethora of events and activities they participated in or co-ordinated nor what a student has done for the community because the school has taken such opportunities away from the students. Im looking forward to applying to graduate school explaining how much time I spent on homework and classwork rather than doing something meaningful.

Question
They make it asBright
They make it as difficult as possible for students. Sure its a great, great institution, but its a terrible school. Students are overworked, underappreciated, and pulled away form daily activities by the excessive amounts of work with significant mental and physical health consequences.
