[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is so surprising to me. Back in the day, the elite ws firms preferred ivy to anyone else.

How did nyu pull this off? I am genuinely curious. Are they providing a more useful, relevant, or rigorous education? Do they provide better networking events? What have they done? [/quote]

Columbia destroyed itself by itself by admitting a lot of socially maladjusted kids and those with questionable academic potential.

Stern otoh build up a steady stream of grinder gunners who are killer employees in[b] finance/consulting over the last 15 years.

There’s way more risk on what you will get from a random Columbia kid vs say Dartmouth or Cornell or Penn

Back to stern - if you have a high gpa from stern, everyone knows that said person works their ass off and is intelligent

CU SEAS PP above. My kid turned down GS from Wall Street. Finance/consulting on Wall Street takes special kids with special temperament.  If that's your kid, go for it. Wall Street jobs aren't hard to get for kids coming out of target schools. With other options, Wall Street/GS felt like a dinosaur. [/quote]

Seas is different and you know it.

This thread isn’t about seas but Columbia as a whole
