Is it hard to get high GPA at Northwestern?

I was admitted to Northwestern, but I'm still unsure of whether or not I want to go there. I was talking to two current students at Northwestern and they say that it is very difficult to get high grades. In addition to making a social life a difficult thing to have, the academics make it harder for their students to get into top-tier graduate schools. After I looked at facebook groups for medical/law/business school, I didn't see many NU grads in the class. Is it true that Northwestern academics is that intense?
