The community is strong and supportive and there is a lot going on (both academically and otherwise) that makes it an exciting place to be. Everyone here is passionate about medicine and doctoring." | Report Response

What do you like least?

"This school lacks a coherent IT department. There is only one person on staff who knows how to make functional software. It feels like I am going to medical school in early 2000 rather than 2010." | Report Response

"Things are always the most organized. On the large scale, Hopkins is somewhat decentralized, leading to a fair amount of bureaucratic work to get things done." | Report Response
