Primarily ranking, opportunities, major, discipline, professors, had a medical school. JHU has an extremely high # of students who get into medical school also. It also was one of the few schools that I got accepted into.
Course Curriculum :
I would appreciate it if it didn't change so much. The course curriculum is also definitely extremely challenging and some classes aren't unnecessary. However, I never know what I need and I feel like I'm taking too many things at once.
Exams :
In ACT I got 36, In SAT: Math 800, Bio - 780, other than that, I didn't take any other exams. I took the SAT once, with approx 2170 out of 2400.
Fees :
I'm not completely sure, but scholarships are not that generous and I'm paying approx $70,000 for my tuition right now even though we are upper middle class.
Examination Structure :
There are only a few exams, and they're worth a lot. Grading is extremely harsh and everybody works so hard, and the curve is not beneficial to students who study hard.
Faculty :
They're extremely smart, but they're not always the best at teaching. They also fly through material so quickly that sometimes it's hard to comprehend.
