What is the difference between here and JHU?

Well, for one, we don’t rip pages out of eachother’s books to help the curve.

More seriously though, non-competitiveness is built into most aspects of the academic life, including all those you listed. It doesn’t come from one aspect, but from an overarching commitment to this kind of attitude.

As for whether Brown is a good choice for “nerds who are good at math and science” but not other things, I’d say it’s perfect, given the complete lack of requirements.
