Oxford college students have the same, if not higher, stats...It's just a liberal arts college.[/quote]

But still, great point. That 1/100th of one grade point probably results in a massive differential from one campus to the other.

Yup 2 yesrs in the middle of nowhere.

Compared to that, 1 semester or 1year study abroad in the places like London, Paris, Madrid etc. even Oakland sound better and student stats are not significantly lower, just a fraction like you said.[/quote]
Yes, at a school outside the Top 50. Northeastern is a forgettable name on any resume, and will never be what Emory is. 
 Now can we get back on topic please![/quote]

We live in the 21st century.

All these numbers are false. You can use the way back machine to go to US News when test scores were mandatory.  
Also Emory's graduation rate is 92% and retention rate is 96%, per CDS. [/quote]
