[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The truth is if your kid end up having that choice, that is amazing. You cant go wrong with either school.

If your kid has international aspirations, Cornell has a better known brand outside of the US. But other than that, your kid should be happy with either.[/quote]

-1.  Typical know nothing DCUM bullshit. [/quote]

Oh my. Of course you know everything. The only bullshitter here is you. I’m a Northwestern grad. My wife is a Cornell grad. We lived abroad for years. The fact is, very few people even knew what Northwestern was. Everyone knew what Cornell was. We were both in consulting, and this was among our own colleagues and partners in the EU, not the average joe. I don’t care what you or your ridiculous commentary says. I’ve experienced it. Go away.[/quote]

Your personal experience doesn’t make it universally true by a long shot.  The world is a big place and while you may have lived abroad for a while you only lived in a small part of it.  Both schools are widely known world wide.  [/quote]

I’m the PP. I lived in Germany, Italy, UK and Australia before moving back to the states. Sorry. My alma matter is an unknown there. Scream all you want….[/quote]

One of my very best friends is a well known professor at ANU.  Trust me, he’s heard of Northwestern.

You may have lived in a lot of places, but you obviously didn’t run around with a very worldly crowd.[/quote]

Ok. Whatever you say. I was only around MBB types for 16 years. I love Northwestern. Phenomenal school. My wife and I always argue about this. But let the facts be what they are. Outside of the US, there is no comparison. Sorry.[/quote]

Maybe you just had a more successful wife?  Not having anything to do with the school?  [/quote]

Ha ha! Cornell has always had a very strong international reputation. Probably because Cornell has always been strong while Northwestern has risen in the last 15-20 years [/quote]
