If this makes you feel better sure. The people that matter say otherwise. Emory has been a top 25 school for 30 years now. Your opinion does not matter. |
No it's you. Cornell is not Harvard. Employers will not see Cornell or Emory differently. |
As an employer, I can tell you that we do. Doesn't mean that Emory isn't a decent school, but you're only embarrassing yourself. |
I am speaking from experience. In final round interviews Cornell, Vandy, Georgetown whatever schools pp listed would not tip the scale. Also, https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1010579.page They're all ranked similarly. |
In both academia and the workforce, Cornell is undeniably viewed a step (or two) above Emory. I'm not even a Cornell alum or have any relation to the school, but come on. You just sound desperate. It's actually a little sad. |
You repeating yourself over and over on this thread doesn't change facts and real data. How would you know the market of academia AND THE entire workforce? Don't know what hard-on you have for Emory this Tuesday but that's what's truly embarrassing. You must have gone to NYU or Tufts or something. No HYP grad has Emory on their mind. |

Posters say no one cares about this school yet there's a new thread on Emory once a month. Emory is ranked top 25 on several rankings, I'm not a rankings snob but one would think they all can't be lying.
For comparison UCB and UVA are ranked 36 and 55 on WSJ. |
+1 our firm doesn’t even recruit at Emory. |
what firm is that? |
not sure what firm you're talking about but which school is more likely to send students to medical school? PP did not say Emory was better than those schools but at the same/similar level. These schools have their strengths and weaknesses. |
It's gotta be the firm of SAHM with time on her hands, right? She wouldn't hire anyone to wash her car unless they went to Harvard.

| Emory graduate here who went on to have a successful career. Numerous interviewers have remarked that it's a great school. Carry on. |
| DS is a software engineer at large asset management firm (Vanguard, Blackrock, Etc). Makes well over 6 figures and graduated Emory this past may. |

It is what it is. Ivy League reject school. It is no one’s first choice. If you apply ED, it’s because you know you couldn’t get into an Ivy, Vandy, Duke or Georgetown.
That’s all ok. But it’s the reality. Like Wash U, in academia, people are impressed and will have good Grad School opportunities. Regionally in Atlanta it’s on par with the finest schools with employers. Outside of that, you’re not working at Goldman Sachs having unseated someone from Wharton or other kids from all the higher ranked schools. On campus recruiting is just Ok and should be better given it’s ranking. That’s the reality from a recent grad. I liked my time there. |
People on this site have mental illnesses and you are one of them. And no one believes you went there, you've been responding to your own comments and making up lies for 2 days. Most Emory grads live and work in the northeast. Every school that isn't Harvard, Yale, or Princeton is an ivy reject school; including other ivys. How is a School impressive to graduate schools but not employers, How does that work? opinions are just that and everyone has them... The rankings say Emory is on par with Vandy, WashU, Notre Dame and the like and has similar test scores... Georgetown has actually fallen behind a bit. |
