Johns Hopkins vs. London School of Economics (LSE)

College Search & Selection
1

<p>So got into both JHU and the London School of Economics (conditional offer) and I really cannot decide between the two.</p>

<p>I'm an American and I've been living in England for the past 5 years so I was really looking forward to going back to the States for college as I'm getting kinda sick of it here (I already live in London, too).</p>

<p>My parents really want me to go to LSE but then again I'm not the kind to really follow instructions from my parents. I just think that there might be better graduate school/job opportunities for an LSE graduate over that from JHU, though I may be mistaken.</p>

<p>Any opinions? Considering also other aspects of the schools (social life, etc).</p>

<p>If you’re talking about social life, JHU is supposedly a place where fun goes to die</p>

<p>Unless you want to be a doctor, go LSE</p>

<p>JHU if you’re interested in working in the US as its reputation among employers is better. Graduate school placement at JHU is also outstanding. And despite what the ill-informed poster above me says, the social life isn’t too shabby either. LSE is a bit more pre-professional and is likely better if you’re interested in jobs in the UK (i’d say it’s better than most schools in the US in that regard).</p>
