| Parents of Tufts, Wake, Smu etc probably see Emory as the weakest T25 link thats why there's constant comparisons, despite it being delusional. Not to be rude but I work for a large bank and we wouldn't hire those other grads over a Emory or other top25. |
| Tufts, Emory, Wake, W & M, SMU, Wash U, Notre Dame, Tulane, etc are all “niche” schools. It’s hard to make any meaningful comparisons amongst them. |
| For schools outside T10, you select schools by major, not by brand. Non-t10 schools typically have something strong going on, but not all around winners. |
| Wake, BC, Tufts etc are definitely not worth that money. No wow factor with mixed bag of career outcomes. At least Wake has good weather. Tufts and BC are not special. Flagships much better investment and more fun. |
Some T10s aren't all around winners either. I wouldn’t go to Caltech or JHU for business/finance. A Emory would be much better for that. |
By their DNA, Caltech and JHU are research universities. Yeah, you would rather go to CMC for finance than Caltech. Emory is exactly what it means for selection by major. |
lol...to compare Emory to Caltech...oh lord these people are crazy |
if they are getting into caltech or jhu, they wouldnt be going to trash like emory as an alternative choice |
| Also, I suspect a Caltech graduate would not have any problem landing a quant job. Just none would be even remotely interested in doing that. |
quant jobs are hard even for caltech grads |
Would go to jhu econ 100x over emory's lackluster undergrad bschool. |
The point is even Top 10s aren't all around schools. |
https://poetsandquantsforundergrads.com/news/best-undergraduate-business-schools-of-2025/ Ranked 8th mind you. Whats lack luster is JHU's outcomes. |
Oh god, something I actually know about. No, quant jobs are not hard for Caltech grads. I take it you don't recruit for, and probably couldn't name, the top 10 quant firms. |
Stop replying to yourself. You're too old for the antics. https://www.peakframeworks.com/post/ib-target-schools Notice how JHU doesn't make the T50 for investment banking placement, Caltech doesn't even make the list although Caltech has an excuse because its so small. Either way Emory is better. Get over it. |
