<p>Is The Johns Hopkins University Famous?</p>
<p>Yes. ten characters</p>
<p>ten characters?</p>
<p>u need 10 characters or more to make a reply</p>
<p>especially for premed. but their international relations is strong too so i've heard</p>
<p>ps: jhu has the best hospital in the world i think</p>
<p>It depends on where you are from. I've spoken with friends from Singapore, and over there Johns Hopkins has a highly reputable name. Same goes for any of the mid-atlantic states. </p>
<p>In New England, since we are surrounded by so many other amazing universities (i.e. the Ivy League universities, and the New England Small College Athletic Conference colleges). But regardless of where you are from, almost all professional industries recognize Johns Hopkins as a "famous" institution.</p>
<p>Best Hospital in the World: Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), arguably. Hopkins is most definitely up there.</p>
<p>Please don't choose a college based on its fame (excuse my assumption if it's false...)</p>
<p>Yeah, MGH, Johns Hopkins, Mayo Clinic, and Cleveland Clinic are all famous...but wait, you wanted to know if Johns Hopkins the University is famous. Well, for medicine its right at the top. Wait, no- it is the top.</p>
<p>Questions from people in my town:</p>
<p>Johns Hopkins? Is that a two year school?
Johns Hopkins? No, It's John Hopkins!
Johns Hopkins? Is that a local school?</p>
<p>JHU's esteem in the medical field unequivocally overshadows all of their other excellent programs, some of which are among the best in the country---at least for people who aren't directly involved with the school (some random person on the street)</p>
<p>Yes famous famous...very hard to get into.......period</p>
<p>Is it famous? They name-drop it on House, MD. And the paparazzi can't get enough of it.</p>
<p>This is a really "funny" (read: ridiculous) thread. My favorite comment has to be "Yes, ten characters."</p>
<p>And I also have to recognize this post:
"Please don't choose a college based on its fame"</p>
<p>If this were true, then I should have gone to California University (the casts of 90210 and Saved by the Bell both went there).</p>
