[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]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.  [/quote]
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. [/quote]

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.  [/quote]
The point is even Top 10s aren't all around schools. [/quote]

In the strictest sense, you are right.  Yale is not strong in Computer Science/Engineering.  
The point is T10 has strong brand.  The point stands.
Outside T10, you select schools by major, not by brand. This point also stands.[/quote]
If all Top 10 had strong enough brands, placement at placed like JHU wouldn't be weak in one area like Finance. Although Yale is weaker in CS, it still has good placement. JHU doesn't fit that mold, and would still take Emory over it for finance. [/quote]

I see.  lol

How about swap Emory with JHU for T10?  Would that make you happy.[/quote]

jhu ironically has more traders in JS/Citadel/HRT than emory despite having less on an aggregate basis in finance.  Someone should compare front office placement for IB too.[/quote]
Yes JHU places at quant firms better than Emory, however these firms have less than 5k employees each and most of them are on a hiring freeze currently. So not really forms I would hang my hat on as a school. Emory has better finance placement broadly. JHU is clearly a one trick pony. [/quote]

Interestingly, jhu has more employees at goldman, chase, and morgan than emory too.  [/quote]
Did you actually look at the role title that dont say investment analyst. Mostly operations/cs roles? We're talking Investment banking. Thats the point of the convo. [/quote]
