What is St. John's University?
1.
Institution that is brought down by idiots who think just because this university is not Ivy League it must be easy, and when they don't get good grades they blame it on the teachers, or how expensive it is, or whatever else they can come up with. I've seen complete idiots and some of the smartest people I know in this school (and I have friends in Ivy Leagues and "better" schools than this one).
One of the most diverse schools in the nation, ethnic and personality wise. There are schools with great ehtnic diversity, but they all happen to be the same uptight assholes (Georgetown, ajem ajem). There are assholes here too, but they must be 5% of the total population. You can find all kinds of personalities here, and I love that. Fine education, for those who know how to use it (no it won't be handed down to you on a silver platter, work for it lazy ass), and great basketball and soccer teams.
It's in Queens, an hour away from Manhattan. Not a bad location, specially if the city is too much for you.
I happen to think rankings are crap, but for those who care:
-Top 10 for Most Competitive Law School Students (Princeton review)
-Best Northeastern Colleges (Princeton review)
-Top 100 Law Schools (US News & Worlds Report)
-Top 100 Graduate Schools in Education (US News & Worlds Report)
-Standard and Poor's consistently ranks St. John's University graduates among the top universities in the nation with alumni who hold executive positions at Fortune 500 companies

A truly horrible place in Jamaica, Queens. The tuition is outrageous, 20k a year plus 10k if you want to dorm. It's full of guidos and sluts from Long Island. The school truly runs the gauntlet in terms of morons. From rich brats from Suffolk, to wannabe gangsters from Hollis to chinks that can barely speak english. Most of the teachers are underqualified and don't know what they are doing. Our only good team is soccer. We used to have a good basketball team until a player raped a girl, then another player raped a girl, then another player raped a girl, then...
Why the hell didn't I go to a SUNY instead of St. John's

A place where average people shine because there are so many stupid dumbass black people that make anyone else look smart. Getting good grades is easy too, but at a high price. Politicians lower the education budget when they think of how the money goes to the stupidest people trying to go to a school like St Johns so they can avoid the embarassment of going to community college.
Go to the deepest poorest slums of new york to find acceptable st johns students
