[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Emory has strong banking and PE placement…I would take this if 100% free.  There are tons of sons/daughters of Wall Street/finance folks that attended top NYC private schools and Emory has a large NYC alumni network.

I don’t think anyone suggesting Wharton ever actually attended.  There aren’t special jobs reserved only for Wharton grads.  [/quote]

Wharton MBA who now works on Wall Street. There are plenty of places on Wall Street that recruit at Wharton undergrad that do not recruit at Emory. That is not up for dispute. But there are plenty of Emory people on Wall Street so it is not like it is impossible to get a finance job from there.

I'm the one who posted above about there being a lot of not great people in Wharton undergrad and the importance of a visit. So I am far from pushing for Wharton. But to say that your odds of getting a job on Wall Street out of Emory are the same as out of Wharton is not accurate. But that should not be the sole factor in a decision, because it is not 100% odds vs. 0% odds. The world is not black and white, particularly not in this specific scenario.[/quote]
No one said the chances are the same for the avg students at these schools. However, OP wouldn't be the avg student at Emory. Acting like Emory isn't a target in its own right is just lying. [/quote]
