If Emory isnt a top school, Georgetown will never be. Georgetown has been ranked in the Top 20 for only 9 years, Emory over 30. GUs gloval ranking is 302, Emory 69. Honestly, GU is holding on to top school status by a whisker.


still far more desirable than garbage emory. georgetown has no ed and a 46% yield. compared to trash emory with ed games and a pathetic 37% yield (and this is trending down)

NYU is more "desired" by your metric but doesn't mean its the better school. Thats about the level GU has dropped to today.


it’s ok. emory as shown in this thread doesn't have the best and brightest


My general rule of thumb is that the more low class know-it-alls who attack a school, the more desirable it is. Because I don't want my kids going to school with people like that or their children. And the fact that you seem to be an advocate for JHU does not reflect well on it, contrary to your belief. You are an embarrassment to the school - I'm surprised some of the other alums haven't told you to STFU.


NP. My general rule of thumb is that when people introduce school Y and Z into a thread dedicated to talking about school X, school Y & Z have insecurities and need to make themselves feel better. I'm looking at you Emory for creeping into a thread about JHU.

Look back at the thread to see who.mentioned Emory first. Wasn't an emory booster.

Probably because posters are having trouble with civility and staying on topic.

Hopefully its just the pro-Emory propaganda on a JHU thread.

DCUM only likes schools in upscale neighborhoods and considers everything else unsafe.

Our mcps public sends one or two there each year. My kids' friends who went have been happy but they were the type who were naturally very talented and did not have to work like crazy to get top grades, music awards, etc.

JHU has medical school, school of public health, school for international relations, and graduate writing program all ranked in T5. Hopkins has a school of engineering, Emory does not. Hopkins has T20 D1 men’s and women’s lacrosse teams. Hopkins has a significantly higher yield than Emory. Cross admits prefer Hopkins by an incredibly rate of 78 percent to 22.

Emory Public health, Nursing, Physical therapy, Creative writing, Physical Assistant, clinical psychology, and African American studies are top 5 as well. Emory does not need D1 sports to make the most satisfied students list on Princeton review.


now do english, engineering, physics, biology, history, chemistry, computer science, economics, mathematics


And you try business, which is one of the two or three most popular majors at most schools.

Aren’t all the top 10 schools though? I don’t think JHU is any more than other top schools

Stanford keeps Asian in the 20s. And they are in CA, and takes 40% from CA.
