[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For undergrad, students should pick the school that's more prestigious generally speaking. GT is ranked higher than Harvard for CompSci but would your DC really pick GT CS over Harvard CS if lucky enough to get in?! Exactly, same principle applies to Emory. Unless your instate Emory is the better choice as it's just the better school. If you want to pay 50k+ for a school ranked 40ish be my guest but many of us wouldn't. [/quote] This is a absolutely terrible comparison. Emory is not Harvard. Sure, between Georgia Tech (Overall #30, CS #5) and Harvard CS (Overall #1, #13), one should choose Harvard. Between Georgia Tech (Overall 30, CS #5) and Emory (Overall #24, CS >#80), anyone serious about CS would pick Georgia Tech. This is the reality of engineering schools. The US News rankings rank based on factors that help business/pre-med/liberal arts students, not engineering students.[/quote]
