[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Emory is seen as the “fall back” or “consolation prize” for many kids who are wanting to attend an Ivy. Sort of like Tufts or Northwestern a generation ago. And it’s so unfortunate. First of all Emory doesn’t have anything in common with the Ivies. It has its own unique combination of things. For a kid who’s interested in pre-med or business, doesn’t care about sports, and would take advantage of Atlanta, it can be a better fit than most of the Ivies. [/quote]
But Georgetown isn't a fall back? Emory performs better against the ivys for Cross admits that Georgetown. You're replying to yourself in these comments. If Georgetown was so awesome it would have higher test scores despite being test required. [/quote]

Np. I went to Georgetown a million years ago and it was definitely an ivy fallback school back then. I still remember someone selling shirts the first week of school that basically said "Georgetown. Rejection never felt so good."

On a recent tour, I asked the kid why he had picked Georgetown and he said something about it being good for pre-med. Reading between the lines, that answer implied that he didn't get into other schools he might have preferred.[/quote]
