It's always about money.

Financial aid is similar for most elite privates.

This is super misinformed. Schools will sweeten the pot when attempting to yield against perceived “peers.”

None of above is ideal for premed.

Will choose between Emory and WashU. Between these two, purely personal preference.

I would pick Emory over Berkeley, Hopkins, USC, Gatech, CMU for Business and a few others majors as well.

I would pick USC over Emory for business.

Emory has better IB placement, and thats what I would aim for.

I haven’t met an Emory parent who hasn’t apologized for or attempted to justify their kid going there.

Any ranking that doesn't include Ross is trash. Ross is a peer school with Wharton.

Further proving why threads like this are important.

Based on the usage of "striver" in OP post, this is a racist post inciting Asian hate, third/fourth generation Asians included.

[Anonymous]

I am super sad that these third/fourth generation Asian don't even claim Asian as their race anymore. The discriminatory policy in the US will lead to elimination of an entire race in a couple of generations ...

Lol same. I’m not sure why 16 or so examples on reddit are supposed to be meaningful. How many tens of thousands of kids get accepted to Emory and other schools each year? No one argued that Emory won exactly zero of the cross admits.

Who’s apologetic about their kid being at Emory? For some, Emory is a reach and a top choice. Emory has little in common with most T-30’s, except maybe Wash U.

Actually they’re not. Having just gone through this process, I can assure you that there is a wide range.

Poets and Quants needs to figure out a way to rank schools that don’t complete the surveys…also, UCB and UT aren’t ranked as well as others for the same reasons.

Ivy League grads apologize for their kids going to Emory.

Not sure I would be so quick to promote a Reddit thread with this type of comment:

“Picked Emory over Tulane Didn’t get into Georgetown, Northwestern, Dartmouth. Born and raised in Louisiana. Did debate in high school lol”
